If you were hoping that maybe someday, Britney Spears would return to performing, you might have to get a plane ticket to live that dream. Spears says she has no desire to perform in the United States, but she supports her son’s musical talents and dreams. She shared a photo on Instagram of herself with a piano from her 2002 American Music Awards performance, as she plans to gift it to her son. But she doesn’t want to get back on stage herself in the United States. She writes, “I will never perform in the U.S. again because of extremely sensitive reasons but I hope to be sitting on a stool with a red rose in my hair, in a bun, performing with my son… in the UK and AUSTRALIA very soon.” Spears praises her son’s talent, calling him a “huge star.” She doesn’t specify which of her two sons she’s talking about, but she may be referring to her youngest son, Jayden, as he is reportedly in Los Angeles to pursue a music career. He also spent his second Christmas in a row with his mother, as she shared a photo of the two together over the holiday break.
