(CNN) – Britney Spears doesn't believe recent reports that she's working on a new album.
The singer denied that she was back in the studio on her verified Instagram account on Wednesday, writing in the caption next to a famous painting of Salome: “To be clear, most of the news is rubbish!”
“They keep saying that I'm reaching out to random people to make a new album… I'll never go back to the music industry!” the caption reads. “When I write, I write for fun or I write for other people!”
Spears' last full-length album was Glory in 2016. It was her ninth studio album. Since then, he has recorded occasional singles, including 2022's “Hold Me Closer” with Elton John and last year's “Mind Your Business” with Will.i.am.
But according to her post this week, despite publishing little actual material herself, Spears has remained privately in the business as a “ghostwriter.”
“I’ve written over 20 songs for other people in the last two years,” he wrote. “I’m a ghostwriter and I honestly enjoy it!”
She also wrote that it was “far from the truth” that her 2023 biography “The Woman in Me” was published illegally and without her consent.
