Oh baby, baby.
Britney Spears fans are now convinced the Y2K pop idol was referencing her abortion — which the singer now says she had after former boyfriend Justin Timberlake allegedly got her pregnant — in a music video for her 2003 hit, “Everytime.”
Spears, 41, claims in her upcoming memoir, “The Woman In Me,” that the pair, who dated from 1999 to 2002, got pregnant, but opted to terminate. Timberlake, 42, did not want to become a father, according to the “Toxic” singer.
This bombshell revelation had fans looking back to the video for “Everytime,” famously written about her split with the “Cry Me a River” singer — with many heartbrokenly hypothesizing that both the song and the video could be about the former couple’s lost child.
In the now 20-year-old video, Spears races down the hallways of a hospital, entering the room of a woman who appears to flatline, and then another, where a woman cradles her newborn baby girl.
“So, Britney Spears’ Everytime is actually a lullaby for her unborn child with Justin Timberlake. This makes the meaning of the song a whole lot different now. She’s drowning herself to be with her baby; that’s my interpretation of the song & [music video],” one fan speculated on X, referencing another scene where Spears drowns in a bathtub.
“The HORRIBLE news about Britney’s abortion bc of Justin Timberlake just took ‘Everytime’ music video to a whole new view. She deserved better,” a second echoed.
“Britney Spears kept touching her stomach during this performance of ‘Everytime.’ It all makes sense now,” another fan shared a video of Spears performing live during the “Live on ABC Special In The Zone” in 2004.
Another heartstring-tugging video circulating on X shows a crying Spears in the studio recording the track, asking if she can sing it one more time.
The Post has contacted reps for Spears and Timberlake for comment.
Her memoir, “The Woman In Me,” will be released on Oct. 24.
