Britney Spears' mum speaks out regarding suspicious activity on singer's social media

Britney Spears' mum has expressed concerns over the way the singer's management team are allegedly controlling her social media accounts.

This week, Lynne Spears left a comment on Instagram fan page @absoluteBritneycom that accused the pop star's team of editing the comments section of her Instagram to make it seem like all was not well with the singer.

"So Britney's team is deleting positive comments on her Instagram post and leaving negative ones to keep up the illusion that she needs help!" read a post by AbsoluteBritney, which boasts more than 13,000 followers. "They were all so quick to remove all comments before but now all the sudden they are leaving all negative ones but removing positive ones! How much longer is this going to be?!? This has to be human rights violation!!!!"

Lynne, 64, agreed that something suspicious was going on because she experienced it firsthand when her own comment was deleted.

"I can't believe u just posted this because I had a friend tell me the same thing! I posted something and tried to go back and find it and none of it is in order and I couldn't find mine, which I JUST POSTED???" Lynne commented. "I know you are a true fan and love her so thank you for pointing this out because I have had others say the same."

Britney's reps have since hit back, telling Entertainment Tonight that the accusations are so ridiculous they are looking at taking legal action.

"We unequivocally deny the absurd allegations that we have promoted negative statements or deleted positive posts from Instagram and are considering appropriate action," a spokesperson said.
