Britney Spears' Twitter account hacked![]() testing captions Britney Spears and the devil? If you'd logged on to her Twitter account recently, that might have been the impression. Hackers appear to have struck the singer’s Twitter account on Thursday, altering her wallpaper and posting the following tweets: “I give myself to Lucifer every day for it to arrive as quickly as possible. Glory to Satan!” “i hope that the new world order will arrive as soon as possible! -Britney” The Illuminati wallpaper and offending tweets were quickly removed. #DontHackBritneySpears later appeared as a popular trending topic on Twitter. Such occurrences are not rare in the celebrity twitterverse and it’s not the first time @BritneySpears has been targeted by hackers. In June, a tweet was posted claiming that the pop star had died. |

we all idolize britney spears because of the great singing talent that she have,;'
Nice post. Can't wait to read more like it.
stupidest thing to be displayed on CNN ever, but pretty damn entertaining, I suppose. I can't believe she's still getting this kind of publicity...
WE ALL NEED TO GET A LIFE, and Learn the real issues of the world... leave the CELEBS alone... who REALLY cares anyways... go hug a tree, love your neighbor, give your friends a rub... MAKE PEACE! THAT'S MORE IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you 🙂
Entertaining none the less!
alice, it could be arguable if its even twitneys own voice that she is lip synching to....ive heard that they have to ( digitally alter) her voice somehow, if she was live, her voice isnt all that...has to be enhanced/tweaked. sure madonna and beyonce may lip synch but we know its their voice... brit is a PREFORMER, not a singer...
i dont blame the folks down under, shelling out (what was it, $1500 aussie currency) for front row seats, only to have her mouth her songs...id be PISSED.
mario/ "As a result of recent fake concert in Australia. This could be a marketing approach of Britney itself to distract the attention of the media from that offensive attitude of her, don't you think that it is possible?"
you could be very well on to something...
dillyrat,= no i dont want her back in the states either!!!!! i cant move to europe!( lucky you 🙂
young one, if britneys your idol, i sincerely feel sorry for you... find someone more worthy of the title idol, or role model... all she cares about is the all mightey $, and how she looks/so she can still be viewed as sexy...never mind being a mother, that is a later down the list priority, if it is even a priority at all.
I can't believe all the people who made complete fools of themselves here!! They posted loudly complaining about this being a story, about CNN running it, etc., etc. Yet not only did they read the headline & click on it, they went on to read the story AND comment!!! What hypocritical idiots.
As a result of recent fake concert in Australia. This could be a marketing approach of Britney itself to distract the attention of the media from that offensive attitude of her, don't you think that it is possible?
Haha @ Patrick in Sydney ... "Please summons her back to America" NO!!! I don't want her back. I moved to Europe to get away from her!!
Funny... people always write that "this article" should not be a CNN topic... and tell the writers to "hit the pavement and find some real news"...hmmm.... I'm thinking... those people have to click on the ENTERTAINMENT button to get here, right?! Then they read the article... comment on it...hmmmm... thinking again... sounds like Lisa Respers France did her job! There are OTHER button to click on, people!!!
oh no, twitter hack? and on brittany? what would the world do without poor brittany's twitter page!!!
Everyone is so mean.....I now have the giggles.
At least Britney is lip-syncing to her own voice. And honestly, her newer stuff isn't that bad for what it is. She's not the only one who lip-syncs by far. Madonna and Beyonce do it, too.
"Nah, you guys got it all wrong. There was no hacking involved here. Her Twitter account was just word-syncing."
lmao love it!
This bimbo is currently touring Australia miming her songs all the while jiggling her bits on stage. Please summons her back to America! Her "Live" show is nothing but miming and people have been walking out of her shows because of it. Does America now approve of this latest version of Milli Vanilli?
Being that i am only 16 and when i was about the age of 10 Britney was my idol.... i'm beginning to hate more and more to hear about her failures, obviously britneys one of those tell all people when she gets all hopped up on drugs.... thanks for showing your real satanic side.. now only if you would join a polygamist cult we all would be over joyed:)
Her life will never be the same...LOL!!!
However... the tweets about Britney being a filthy, low-class, no-talent bimbo are 100% true.
funny...I thought it was J-Z
RE:Stacy H. No, she's not as talented of a singer- like the AMAZING CARRIE UNDERWOOD, for example...BUT, she deserves everything she's received in entertainment. Her videos are very well done. She's GORGEOUS. She's an excellent dancer. And, most importantly, she (and her team) are excellent marketers. I love Britney and I think she has the staying power to be a force in entertainment for her entire life. And that includes her comedic acting talent, as well- as proven by her stints on Will and Grace and other shows.
Britney??? Talented? (choke),,, I have a hard time considering someone with no song writing talent and who lip syncs all of the time talented. She is manufactured, just like a doll. She has brought nothing to the table that we havent seen or heard in the last ten years.
She doesn't connect with fans during concerts, and just bumps and grinds to her pre-recorded tracks.
Do not insult other real artists by calling her talented.
To all the people that are complaining that this shouldn't have been posted. That this really isn't news. Well it did what it was suppose to do. To get you to read and then post about it.
Mission accomplished.
Her Satanic worship was actually included in the extra scenes from her "For the record" exclusive dvd. I'm suprised you guys missed that.
leave brittany alone. do you think its funny to watch someone who is as talented as her go down the drain? shes my idol, and you people discust me when you put her down.
It's a slow news day when everyone cares about Britneys twitter account.
I think the real story is why people follow celebrities on twitter.
Oh and by hacking they mean guessing the password.
Britney didn't actually tweet anything, she lip-synched it.
That's hilarious guys. Well done.
We all know it was really Britney after doing a bunch of Meth again.
"1, 2, 3,....I dont mean you and you..." Brithey is a superstar! The world is so much more interesting with her in....
To "J" – when is it ok to bash someone elses innocent children. It takes a real low self esteem to want to print something in the webworld about children – take your own self inventory and think about what you wrote. Wouldn't it be horrible if someone said that about your children?
Um, how do we really know it wasn't actually HER? 🙂
hey there that stuff really suxs about what happened to brittany thats not cool!!
Is this CNN or TMZ.....come on!
What??? This is GREAT!! I have been waiting for something like this to happen. I am in jail, and cnn is the only thing we can log on to, so it's crazy actually having something interesting to read. GO HACKERS!!!!!
I know Britney was just a kid by the time Anton LaVey died in 1997, but we can clearly see that the old man had time to draw her to the dark side.
No, Britney, come back to the Light!
Seriously, kudos to the hackers for defacing this idiot's account. I encourage you to keep it up until Britney actually joins Satanism. I'd love to see her break down again.
With Britney's tweets resembling coherent thoughts, authorities could only draw one conclusion: the pop superstar's account had been hacked!
Shame on you J & CNN=yes you are right about innocent children, they cant help who their parents are...
however you have that sentiment, but its ok for dear ol twitney to have her 2 sons WATCH her shows, where she struts around, acting all slutty...? thats ok , though? poor kids. they had better be homeschooled, their "peers" are gonna give them boys hades for their mom being such a "ho"
Will The real Britney go away=you have hit it right on the head, esp using her kids for media attention, see im a good mom...i drop $3k in a candy store for them!
This is news?! Seriously!?
Why is this news? My heartfelt "Why should I care?" to CNN writer Lisa Respers. Hit the pavement and find some real news.
And to Jack, there's serious enough topics in CNN, I just can't figure out why this filler exists. I know they want to cover every little detail so they can seem like this total news coverage "big brother is watching you" entity, but you can't avoid asking the questions of why they think people enjoy this waste of bandwidth filler. If we all stop asking that question, we remove all boundaries of what is "news"... soon we'll be hearing that Barack Obama has explosive diarrhea in top headlines. You can't just let "idiocracy" go unscathed. You have you point it out and call it a dumbass for existing in the first place.
Ha ha thats funny. Maybe if Britney had a little more morals, wouldn't receive comments like that.
jack is right. "News" is no longer like the old days. More leaning towards entertainment than a report of facts.
With the deminished attention span for the population these days, short quick fluffy stories are more and more the norm. And if you want "serious" stuff, why are you clicking on a Britney Spears link?
HMM.... and the point of hacking into someone's Twitter (facebook, myspace, or any social networking site) is......................????? And for it to make news on CNN? Wow, BIG NEWS STORY THERE! Way to go boys.
and this is news how? Real journalists would be ashamed!!!
Well I really like Britney as a person and I know her better than that. People just need to move on with their own lives and stop talking all the trash. If people would worry about themselves as much as they worry about other people this world would be a better place.
Its possible that she got very high and spilled the beans.
Please, 2 kudo points to the twit that hacked her account.
First BRITNEY IS A LIPSYNC FRAUD..
She is like the old, washed up, used wanna~be
Take her kids and give them to someone who wont abuse & use them for the media spot light..
Her career is already a rock slide.. one way left to go.. DOWN
Bye Bye Britney
Not only did Twitter get her account back, but they DELETED all references and RT's of the offending posts. Censorship for their Celebrity friends? I wonder what else they're deleting....well....except for SPAM, they can't seem to delete that.
First: This should not bee a CNN topic!
Second: Britney's virtual assistant probably did this purposely for publicity!
Third: Twitter; Tweet deck; Facebook etc... aren’t just for people "without a life" they are an excellent resource for networking and business purposes!
Twitter's security sucks.
i get a kick out of the comments that a story like this is not "news" and not "serious" enough for cnn.
this is ridiculous. cnn is not any more serious than "e" network or the rags one sees at the supermarket checkout.
look at the mix of cnn stories for goodness' sake!
that – is – AWSOME!
If i was famous i would love that stuff...... i hope she is laughing her ass off in good sportsmanship and not WHINING like a 12 year old about how everyone hates her......
awesome thank god i live in canada where we have lives and stufff like this doesnt happen
I am so amused by all of the comments. You guys just made my day.
If Twitter does not get its act together soon, there is going to be a mass exodus. I get spam mails that contain a virus every day.
Too funny
OMG Britney's Twitter account got hacked! Quick, someone get her some french cries and a waahmburger.
Nice twits, Brit.
Lame, were these hackers a couple of tweens? if I did it (which I would never do because I love Britney) I would at least have said something funny. Maybe changed her background to the explicit towel featured on "it's always sunny". I don't know, but this was never the less lame. Moral of the story, stick to playing WOW the rest of the world shuns you for a reason.
I'm surprised anyone caught this. It sounds like Britney to me.
ahahahaaahahaaa
that was funny
When you're an idiot, you are going to have an easily discovered password, right Brit?
@Shame Actually, this section of the site is called "The Marquee Blog" for a reason. There are US and World news sections of this site if that's what you're looking for (you can access them from the main page).
Also, "J" was obviously being facetious. Everyone knows Christina Aguilera is a bride of the dark one... 🙂
I don't particularly like Britney, but geez...don't people have better things to do than torment her?
Nah, you guys got it all wrong. There was no hacking involved here. Her Twitter account was just word-syncing.
Sadly, this was probably an improvement over her own inanities.
"Everyone knows that Britney birthed the Antichrist after K-Fed's demonic seed took root in her womb."
bahahaha thanks for that 😀
Wow. People really need to stop twittering if this upsets them. Humanity's mind is slowly being degraded by Twitter.
OMG her twitter account?!?!?!?! Someone call a Waahmbulance!
How dare you say such rotten things about innocent children. Shame on you CNN for allowing it to post. Honestly, is this really news anyway? Let E! do this story.
again, leave people alone dang. i cant stand people like that. keep your head up Brit.
Bad cover story, PR peeps! Everyone knows that Britney birthed the Antichrist after K-Fed's demonic seed took root in her womb. My guess is that the mother of the Foulest One perhaps meant to post this on the cult's webpage, but logged into the wrong account. Oops!
Leave Britney Alone!!! 🙂
