Months after the #FreeBritney movement began to end Jamie Spears’ conservatorship over his daughter, Britney Spears, the singer finally had a chance to speak her mind in a court hearing that took place yesterday. Spears has been in a court-ordered conservatorship for the past 13 years, according to CNN. Even on social media, where the pop music icon has been especially active, she has been famously quiet about the subject of her conservatorship. At one point in the hearing, Spears finally broke her silence on the matter, asking to address Judge Brenda Penny.
In her 20-minute prepared speech to the court, Spears laid out several accusations of abuse that occurred during her conservatorship, including being forced to use birth control, take medication, like lithium, and attend therapy sessions. “The last time I spoke to you … made me feel like I was dead, like I didn’t matter, like nothing had been done to me, like you thought I was lying,” Spears said in her testimony, according to CNN. “I want to be heard. I’m telling you this again so that maybe you understand the depth and degree and the damage … I want and deserve changes going forward. I just want my life back. It’s been 13 years and it’s enough.” After Spears’ honest testimony, many celebrities came forward to show their support, including “Charmed” actress Rose McGowan.
