Britney Spears Lists Selena Gomez and Drew Barrymore Among Her ‘Girl Crushes’ ArticlePure

Britney Spears is shouting out a few “Pretty Girls.”

Spears, 42, praised a few female superstars in her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, Oct. 15. Throughout her Stories, she shared that she wants to talk about the “women [she] genuinely admire[s] and [has] crazy girl crushes on” and those who inspire her. 

The “Lucky” singer revealed she admires Pamela Anderson because she “is a classic babe and seems so sweet!!!”

“Natalie Portman because I feel like she’s the coolest person I ever met,” revealing she met her “outside with her dog in New York,” noting that they “had the same shirt on!!!”

The Circus singer added that she’s a fan of Camila Cabello “because she’s so darn pretty and she makes me giggle out loud!!!” 

“Her personality is so sweet and kooky I think it’s healthy to be silly,” she added before confessing, “I wish I was more like that!!!” 

Spears continued by complimenting Kendall Jenner, asking, “Is it even normal to be that pretty ???”

She finished off her Stories by giving a shout-out to her “literally gorgeous” friends, Selena Gomez and Drew Barrymore. Gomez and Barrymore both attended Spears’ 2022 wedding to then-husband Sam Ashgari and the group sang “Vogue” on the dance floor with Madonna herself.

Along with complimenting the actresses, models and singers, Spears also wrote about the evolution of her friendships. “Let’s talk about how your other half growing up is usually your best friend,” she wrote in the Stories. “Y’all literally finish each others sentences and you don’t really look alike but because you’re always together your mannerisms, the way you speak, and even walk it’s almost like you’re the same f—ing people!!!” 

But the Grammy winner reflected that as the years go by, some people “get married and grow up and live worlds apart!!!”

She continued by simply remarking, “It’s called life!!!” Adding, “I have girlfriends I hang out with every now and then but it’s not the same as when we were younger!!!”

While the “Piece of Me” singer candidly reflected on adult friendships and the women she admires, she revealed she “honestly” had no idea why she was writing about that. “I’m away writing my novel and learning about myself !!! But I do so miss being silly with the girls!!!”

While Spears celebrated her inspirations, the singer is consistently recognized for her fashion and music moments. More recently, on Oct. 7, Brittany Mahomes wore red leather pants and a matching jacket, which was reminiscent of the leather catsuit Spears wore in her “Oops!…I Did It Again” music video.

Weeks before that, at the 2024 MTV VMAs, Sabrina Carpenter and Megan Thee Stallion paid homage to Spears’ classic “Oops!…I Did It Again” iconic spoken interlude and “I’m a Slave 4 U” performance at the 2001 award show, respectively.
