The singer also explained why she posts videos of herself dancing on Instagram.

Britney Spears revealed that she will “never” again perform in the United States in a post shared to Instagram on Thursday.

The Grammy winner, who has not toured since 2018, shared the news alongside a photo of herself sitting on stage next to a white piano. In the post’s caption, she wrote that she will not return to the stage in the U.S. due to “sensitive” matters.

“I will never perform in the U.S. again because of extremely sensitive reasons,” Spears wrote. “But I hope to be sitting on a stool with a red rose in my hair, in a bun, performing with my son … in the UK and Australia very soon. He’s a huge star, and I’m so humbled to be in his presence!!! Godspeed, little man!!!”

Earlier in the caption, Spears shared that she wanted to give the piano to one of her sons, although she did not specify which one. She shares two children, Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden, 19, with ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Spears also opened up about posting videos of herself dancing on Instagram, explaining that the dances “heal things in my body that people have no idea about.”

“Yup and it’s embarrassing sometimes … but I walked through the fire to save my life,” the singer wrote.

Spears did not share any details about upcoming shows or concerts in the United Kingdom or Australia. A rep for Spears did not respond to The Hollywood Reporter‘s request for additional comment on her Instagram post.

The “…Baby One More Time” singer, who is one of the best-selling artists in music history, last performed in the U.S. in October 2018 when she concluded her Piece of Me Tour in Austin. Spears was scheduled to open her second Las Vegas residency, entitled Domination, in 2019, but postponed the shows before largely stepping away from music.

Britney Spears Hints at First Australian Shows Since 2009: “Very Soon”

Excuse us while we collectively scream into our Nokia 3310s, because Britney Spears has just casually dropped the biggest Aussie tour tease of the decade.

In a heartfelt Instagram post this week, the pop princess revealed she has no plans to ever perform in the United States again for “extremely sensitive reasons” – but made it very clear she’s got her eyes firmly set on the UK… and Australia.

“I hope to be sitting on a stool with a red rose in my hair, in a bun, performing with my son… in the UK and AUSTRALIA very soon.”

“I will never perform in the U.S. again… but I hope to be sitting on a stool with a red rose in my hair, in a bun, performing with my son… in the UK and AUSTRALIA very soon.”

Yep. Very soon. Those two words are doing some serious heavy lifting right now.

Even more wholesome: Britney says she wants to share the stage with her youngest son, Jayden Federline, who she’s been proudly hyping online as he launches his own music career.

“He’s a huge star and I’m so humbled to be in his presence! God speed, little man!”

If she follows through, it’ll mean her first live shows since stepping back from the spotlight in 2019 – and her first time performing in Australia since 2009, when she brought The Circus Starring Britney Spears tour down under.

Fifteen years. FIFTEEN.

The post arrives amid Britney publicly responding to allegations made by ex-husband Kevin Federline in his recent memoir, which included a number of deeply confronting claims about their relationship. Britney fired back on X, accusing him of “constant gaslighting” and saying the accusations were “extremely hurtful and exhausting”.

She also opened up about her much-discussed Instagram dance videos, explaining that she “dances on IG to heal things in my body that people have no idea about,” adding, “I walked through the fire to save my life.”

No dates, no venues, no official tour announcement just yet – but the words are out there now: UK and Australia. Very soon.
