Elon Musk tweets ‘Free Britney’ as latest celeb to support pop star

Elon Musk voiced support for Britney Spears on Monday, tweeting, “Free Britney,” in the latest high-profile show of support for the pop star in the midst of her conservatorship battle.

The Space X CEO’s early morning post about the “Oops! … I did it again” singer went viral, racking up about 20 million retweets within hours Monday morning. With the tweet, Musk joined a chorus of others who have formed a movement to end Spears’ unwanted legal arrangement. The Mississippi-born best-selling artist’s approximately $60 million fortune has for 13 been in the hands of her father, Jamie Spears, who the youngers Spears said has forced her to work, to take birth control and drugged her.
