Britney Spears has angrily denied two reports that she is currently working on her tenth album, and had enlisted Julia Michaels and Charli XCX to help as songwriters.

‘Just so we’re clear most of the news is trash!’ Spears, 42, began her post on Wednesday, adding: ‘They keep saying I’m turning to random people to do a new album… I will never return to the music industry!’

It seemed that Spears was referencing two reports from The US Sun and PageSix that claimed the Toxic singer had begun work on a new record, which would be her first album in eight years. 

Far from releasing music, Spears then claimed in her post that she prefers life behind the spotlight, working as a ghostwriter for other pop stars.
