In a lengthy post to Instagram, she said: "I watched 'NATURAL BORN KILLERS' this morning and damn I got ENLIGHTENED … and HOLY SMOKES S**T BALLS.

"I'm sure I brought a billion SMILES to me LOOKING LIKE SHREK at a restaurant.

"Even my best friend couldn't WAIT TO SEND IT TO ME, THEY DON'T THINK TWICE because we are all natural born killers.

"I know the news is all hyped about me being a little drunk at a restaurant … it's like they'll be WATCHING MY EVERY MOVE !!!''I'm so flattered they talk about me like a maniac THEN have the balls to talk about all the negative things that happened in my past !!!

"Honestly it would be safer for me to compliment this world and f**k up because if I become a prophet and don't create history, we might have something y'all… I'm just KIDDING, but it's a good thought.

"I know y'all are rooting for me and all and make sure you check out the shocking Shrek picture of me."

This comes after the singer slammed her sister Jamie Lynn after she claimed that it was 'hard' being her sister.

Speaking on reality show Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, the 31-year-old got emotional thinking back to her childhood.

Growing up, my sister became famous, worldwide famous, when I was very young," Jamie Lynn said.

"I’m so proud of her, love her to death, but I don’t know. Sometimes I feel like I don’t really have anything for myself. I struggle with self-esteem all the time."

The comments did not go down well with Britney, who questioned her recollection of their childhood.

"Are we gonna say it was hard being my sister ???? Hmmmmmmmmmmm.... really ???" she asked in an Instagram post.
