The singer also said she's on a serious diet after her Thanksgiving chow down.

Britney Spears was in the mood to celebrate the long-sought end of her conservatorship on Monday (Nov. 29). The singer, whose 13-year court-ordered arrangement ended earlier this month after her father Jamie Spears was removed as the controller of her estate, excitedly detailed her newfound freedom in a glowing Instagram post in which she revealed that she feels like she’s finally on the right mix of medications.

“That beautiful … nice … and warm f—ing fuzzy feeling when you’ve been waiting patiently for 13 years to be able to live your life however you choose and it’s finally here !!!!,” Spears, 39, wrote alongside a photo of a glowing hearth decorated for the holidays. “Lighting my candles sure is a joy folks!!! And you might be surprised cause my prayers are pretty damn powerful ESPECIALLY when you’re on the right medication just a month ago !!!!”

Though the pop star is finally free of the arrangement that found her father and a co-conservator handling all her personal and financial issues, Spears and her attorney Mathew Rosengart have said they plan to investigate abuse and financial mismanagement she alleges occurred during the conservatorship and hold her father and others accountable for any wrongdoing they discover.

“Damn I can actually pray…. it feels so good to just BE HERE !!!! I’M HERE … thanks to no doctor or conservatorship people,” she continued in Monday’s post. “Good God my friends … it’s good to BE HERE and be PRESENT !!!! Since I can actually PRAY now hopefully in just 3 months there will be a shift for me … I mean who knows …”

And though Spears did not elaborate on what “shift” she was referring to, she did make a sly joke about the very important person who deserves the kudos for her newfound freedom. “I’m not gonna thank anyone I’m gonna pull a @snoopdogg and say I thank ME for believing in ME

Gaz Coombes and co. shared a mysterious teaser online, highlighting Monday’s date (September 16)

Supergrass are teasing an upcoming announcement with fans, according to a new post.

The British band, fronted by Gaz Coombes, shared a cryptic new post across their social media channels this morning (September 13), suggesting to fans that a new announcement is on the way.

Posted at 9am BST, the post simply shared artwork of the band’s logo in red, alongside next Monday’s date, September 16. In the caption, the band simply wrote: “Sign up now”, alongside a link to their website’s homepage.

Upon clicking the link, the page prompts fans to sign up for future updates, and asks them to input both their email address and the country they live in. Check out the post below.

 

While details on the announcement remain sparse, the post has already caught fans’ attention, with some speculating that the news could be around the upcoming 30th anniversary of their debut album, ‘I Should Coco’.

Released in May 1995, the release marked the record that first put the band on the map, and contained singles ‘Mansize Rooster’, ‘Caught By The Fuzz, ‘Lose It’ and ‘Lenny’. It also saw Coombes and Co. nominated at the 1995 Mercury Prize, and contained what would soon become their biggest track to date, the Ivor-Novello winning ‘Alright’.

At time of writing, the band haven’t shared any further indication as to whether the announcement is related to the huge upcoming milestone – whether it be an anniversary tour or reissue – nor whether it has anything to do with new music that could be on the way.

The band’s last studio album was ‘Diamond Hoo Ha’, which arrived in 2008. Since then, they have shared remastered versions of both their 1999 self-titled album and their 2003 record ‘Life On Other Planets’.

In other news around the band, last year it was reported that the band’s frontman joined Johnny Marr onstage last month to perform The Smiths‘ classic ‘There Is A Light That Never Goes Out’ at Lakefest 2023.

Before then, Coombes opened up about how “nervous” he was about reuniting Supergrass following the success of his solo albums.

Supergrass split up in 2010 but reunited for a series of live shows in 2019. They released a live album in 2020, Live On Other Planets, to celebrate their 25th anniversary and raise money for grassroots venues affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Having got into a flow and the last two albums having done so well, it seemed a bit odd, like a backward step,” he said. “But then I was confident that I could operate both things together and it seems that I did, because I was obviously writing this record mainly during the reunion so I feel like I made best use of both things.”

Coombes’ fourth solo album, ‘Turn The Car Around’, came out in January of last year.
