Britney Spears was dancing up a storm in a new video she posted to her Instagram account on Monday.
The 41-year-old pop icon thrust her hips and showed off her trim midriff as she boogied down to Paula Cole’s Feelin’ Love.
She also appeared to be wearing her wedding ring again after she returned from a solo trip to Hawaii over the weekend with her finger bare.
In her caption, the songstress referenced her fears about body shaming and mentioned an incident in which her husband Sam Asghari had shielded her from paparazzi, which seemed to suggest that things were all right between the two.
In her clip from Monday, Britney was dressed in one of her favored peasant tops, a pale yellow cropped item with a mild V-neck and puffy sleeves.

Her own worst critic: Britney described her body issues after being unhappy with how she looked when photographed in public

She completed her look with a pair of brown suede platform heels, and she styled her voluminous blond locks in a ponytails, with her bangs swept to the sides.
Britney also added some sparkle to her look with a pendant on a beaded necklace.
She appeared to have her wedding ring back on in the video, after she was seen deplaning without it on, and she claimed that the video was shot on Sunday.
She referenced her recent Hawaii trip at the start of her lengthy caption.
‘Woke up this morning and my skin is so dry !!! After visiting a couple of exotic locations recently, I have to coat my body in lotion at night !!! It’s so beautiful out and I want to get out more,’ she said.
However, Britney noted that she was afraid to go out due to photographers hoping to catch a glimpse of her.
‘Paps are everywhere but not nearly as bad as it is in LA though,’ she continued.

All’s well: Britney referenced how Sam blocked her body when they were spotted by paparazzi, suggesting that all was well with the two. She also complained about a body-shaming personal trainer
Going solo: She said she now worked out 45 minutes for three times per week on her own after the bad experience with a trainer
She referenced a recent incident in which her car broke down and she called on her husband Sam to shield her, though she referred to him by his original name Hesam.
‘I got out telling Hesam to come on my side and the paps were there and took pics … I looked like an idiot !!! My facial expression, the way I was leaning over, the pooch in my stomach !!!’ she complained. ‘It was horrible because they got a pic of me in a helpless situation, so of course I get protective of myself !!!’
She added that the ‘same thing’ happened during a trip out with a friend, and the resulting photos ‘didn’t look like my body.’
The hitmaker added that she looked into getting a trainer in recent months, only to drop her after she felt body shamed.
‘By no means am I saying my body is perfect but I took the time 2 months ago to find a trainer and the first thing she did to me was literally … and I’m not even lying … pinch the skin on my stomach and legs and told me I need to get my younger body back,’ she admitted.
‘why the hell did she do that ???’ Britney continued. ‘It made me cry … I obviously didn’t hire her so I did it myself !!!’
Now the singer works out on her own for 45 minutes three times per week, though she stressed that she ‘hates working out for too long.’
She added that she mentioned the anecdote because she still had insecurities about how her body looks, though she was enjoying it on Monday.
Nothing to see here? Sam was also recently seen without his ring, but his rep claimed he had only removed it while shooting a film; seen in 2019
‘God knows my body ain’t perfect but I did want to share what my body looks like at the moment … I worked my a** off and for some people like that trainer who might see those nasty pap pics and secretly smile,’ she wrote, adding, ‘Yup, y’all got it … I have 4 hours of footage from me shooting this yesterday and b****, I’m just getting started …’
Britney’s recent trip without Sam and the fact that both were recently spotted without their wedding rings on has fueled rumors of trouble between the two, though her latest post downplayed those concerns.
A representative for Sam also denied the concerns, saying, ‘Sam is not having marital issues. He simply took off his ring because he is filming a movie.’
According to IMDb, his project Grand Death Lotto is currently in production, though it is apparently shooting in Atlanta, but he was seen running errands without his ring on late last month.
