Britney Spears is speaking out after the cops were called to her home. The situation went down Wednesday, when Spears' Instagram account was deleted. This concerned many fans who called the police to perform a wellness check on her home. A day later, the singer used social media to say although she "loves and adores" her fans, "things went a little too far" and she felt her privacy had been massively invaded. Britney said police left almost immediately when they realized there was no issue, but it left her feeling "gaslit and bullied." She asked her fans to respect her privacy moving forward.

A rapper is being sued by the king of Rick Rolling himself, Rick Astley. Yesterday, Astley filed a lawsuit where he claimed Yung Gravy's popular song 'Betty (Get Money)' uses an impersonated version of his voice from his 1987 hit, 'Never Gonna Give You Up.' Astley claims Gravy and his producers purposefully included a "nearly indistinguishable imitation" of his voice throughout their song.
