Britney Spears blasts sister Jamie Lynn: ‘My family ruined my dreams’

She’s sharing a piece of her mind.

Britney Spears slammed her sister Jamie Lynn and the rest of her family in a Thursday night Twitter post.

“My family ruined my dreams 100 billion percent and try to make me look like the crazy one,” she wrote in a lengthy note. “My family loves to pull me down and hurt me, always, so I am disgusted with them!!!!”

The “Piece of Me” singer, 40, said she watched a recent interview that Jamie Lynn did and was bothered by two things: Her sister describing her as “out of control” and Jamie Lynn’s performance of Britney’s songs in 2017.

Britney has spoken before about how she wanted to remix her old music and write new songs but was prevented from doing so under her conservatorship.

Britney described herself as “sitting there seeing a 15 minute performance of everything I have ever wanted. … They all got to DO IT and PLAY ME and I always sat there and took it.”

Jamie Lynn, 30, has given multiple interviews recently as she promotes a new book, “Things I Should Have Said.” At points in the book, she describes Britney as “erratic” and “paranoid.”

The “Zoey 101″ actress has said she was always trying to back Britney.

“I’ve always been my sister’s biggest supporter,” she said on “Good Morning America.” “So when she needed help, I set up ways to do so. Went out of my way to make sure that she had the contacts she needed to possibly go ahead and end this conservatorship and just end this all for our family.

But Britney didn’t see it that way.

“(Jamie Lynn) was never around me much 15 years ago…so why are they even talking about that unless she wants to sell a book at my expense?” Britney asked. She later added, “Hope your book does well, Jamie Lynn !!!!”

Britney backers have jumped on Jamie Lynn, claiming she didn’t do enough to end her older sister’s conservatorship. Jamie Lynn has said she got death threats from Britney fans and added she’d been working behind the scenes. The conservatorship was dissolved in November.
