Britney's post saw her fans praise the Toxic star for her words with several comparing the two women. Like Princess Diana, who was 36 when she died, Britney, has also found her troubled life to be the subject of scrutiny after the release of her controversial documentary The Battle For Britney: Fans, Cash and a Conservatorship, earlier this month. One user wrote, "You have tons of similarities with her life and how the media treated her! You are also an amazing woman that has influenced millions of people. We love you Britney", while another commented, "You and Lady Di are the most iconic women in the world queen." Take a look.
