Britney Spears Sparks Outrage Among Michael Jackson Fans by Supporting Accuser Wade Robson
Britney Spears is facing backlash from Michael Jackson fans after expressing support for her former fling Wade Robson, who has publicly accused Jackson of molestation.
Spears posted and later deleted a black-and-white video of Robson discussing his podcast, “Trauma to Triumph,” where he opens up about his alleged abuse.
In her post, Britney praised Wade for sharing his story, noting how it deeply resonated with her and prompted reflections on her own troubled past.
Spears commented on how heartwarming it was to see “an older man” discuss such sensitive issues, despite Robson being a year younger than her.
She wrote, “It genuinely touched my heart to see this older man speak on something that’s incredibly sensitive to my heart.”
Jackson’s fans reacted with outrage, criticizing Britney for supporting Robson, who has long claimed that Jackson befriended and sexually abused him as a child after he moved from Australia to the U.S. Many fans deemed her post embarrassing and shameful, highlighting how Jackson had helped boost her career and emphasizing that he is no longer alive to defend himself.
This controversy comes as Robson and another accuser, James Safechuck, prepare for their revived lawsuit against Jackson’s estate.
Britney’s connection to Wade also has personal history; she admitted in her memoir, “The Woman in Me,” that she had an affair with Robson while dating Justin Timberlake, a fact that was widely speculated since Timberlake’s song “Cry Me a River.”
The backlash underscores the deep divisions surrounding the allegations against Michael Jackson and the sensitivities involved in discussing them.
