Looks like the alleged feud between Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears has been reignited, as the 39-year-old Slave 4 U singer has called out her old Mickey Mouse Club rival for the way she handled a recent question about her conservatorship.

While appearing on the Latin Grammys red carpet, the 40-year-old Your Body singer was briefly asked to comment about Britney’s conservatorship finally coming to an end. Instead of issuing a quick and polite response like we would have expected, Xtina’s people immediately shut the journalist down, saying, “no, we’re not doing that tonight. I’m sorry.”

So it isn’t what Christina said that Britney had the issue with; but rather, what she didn’t say! Christina did manage to sneak in a, “I can’t. But I’m happy for her,” comment before she was ushered away, but that wasn’t enough for Britney, who took to social media to slam the singer.

“I love and adore everyone who supported me… but refusing to speak when you know the truth, is equivalent to a lie!” Britney wrote on her Instagram Story shortly after the incident happened, alongside a still of Christina on the red carpet.

“13 years being in a corrupt abusive system yet why is it such a hard topic for people to talk about? I’m the one who went through it! All the supporters who spoke up and supported me thank you… Yes, I do matter”.

We wonder if Britney will remember the statement Christina shared back in June, in relation to the conservatorship…

“These past few days I’ve been thinking about Britney and everything she is going through. It is unacceptable that any woman, or human, wanting to be in control of their own destiny might not be allowed to live life as they wish,” Xtina wrote on Twitter at the time, alongside a picture of the two of them as teenagers.

She ended her long and heartfelt message by saying: “I promise you she deserves all of the freedom possible to live her happiest life. My heart goes out to Britney. She deserves all the TRUE love and support in the world”.

We hope that Britney and her fans will remember Christina’s earlier messages of support; because let’s not forget that Britney’s fans have been coming for anyone and everyone who had a part to play in the conservatorship – including her very own sister.

If you cast your minds back to last month, you may remember that a charity refused to take a donation made by Jamie Lynn Spears because of her role in Brit’s conservatorship. Ouch!

We hope the nineties and early noughties Britney and Christina feud won’t come back, as we thought we had finally moved past all of that! Fingers crossed the two popstars can work it out between them!
