Britney Spears is firing back at Ozzy Osbourne after the rocker slammed the dancing videos she posts to social media.

During a viral episode of The Osbournes Podcast earlier this week, Ozzy, 75, said he was “fed up of seeing poor old Britney Spears on YouTube. Every f***ing day. You know, it’s sad. Very, very sad.”

Ozzy’s wife Sharon, and his children Kelly and Jack Osbourne, all agreed.

“I feel so sorry for her,” Kelly said, with her brother calling Spears’ behaviour “very sad indeed.”

Meanwhile, Sharon referred to her as “a poor little thing.”

Spears’ name came up after a fan asked Kelly if she’d ever take part in viral TikTok dance challenges.

“I don’t know how to do TikTok dances. I don’t know why anybody would ever think that I would,” Kelly responded.

Spears, 42, responded to the family’s criticism in a lengthy Instagram message by referencing actress Kate Beckinsale’s own recent battles with “cruel people … saying she needs more age appropriate content.”

“She’s in her fifties and I thought it was pretty badass how she responded,” Spears wrote.

But Spears said the disparagement of Beckinsale is “not as bad” as some of the comments she has read about herself “saying it’s sad that I’m as old as I am and I’m dancing every single day on my IG!!!”

Spears clapped back writing that “I hardly ever dance” and “I’m not poor at all!!!”

The Toxic hitmaker then revealed she has been teaching dance to teenagers, writing, “I know what it’s like to be judged … I think it’s important to HELP EACH OTHER and invite each other to places that help our souls grow!!!”

Spears concluded her message by suggesting that she would do a photoshoot with Beckinsale “and tell the Osbourne family, who is the most boring family known to mankind, to kindly f*** off!!!”

The pop star’s comments come after Beckinsale lashed out at critics of her Instagram posts earlier this month.

The Underworld star shared a clip of herself in pink bikini bottoms, a revealing crop top, a giant hair bow and knee-high boots firing back at people who “get themselves really upset” and criticize her for not “doing enough age-appropriate things.”

“I thought I’d let them kick off their week with a little stab of joy, of me putting on a hair net,” she said in the video.

“Let’s have a toast for the douche bags / Let’s have a toast for the a****** / Let’s have a toast for the scumbags 😘😘😘😘,” she captioned the post.

Beckinsale has been waging war on social media with followers who have been criticizing her figure and revealing Instagram posts in recent months.

When one person asked why the Serendipity star’s “ass ran away,” Beckinsale replied: “I watched my stepfather die quite shockingly, my mother has stage 4 cancer, and I lost a lot of weight from stress and grief, quite quickly.”

She then told the commentator to “worry about your own f***ing ass,” adding, “I suggest shoving something up it — like a large pineapple or a brick.”

In May, Beckinsale dressed up as an old man in a bid to silence haters online.

“New deal. This is all you’re getting,” she wrote in the caption showing her transformation. “Hope it is less triggering and more what you consider age appropriate. Sayonara b****es.”

Beckinsale also fired a shot at detractors this week when she posed in a black one-piece swimsuit emblazoned with the phrase “I did not ask your opinion.”
