Britney Spears Sparks Financial Fears: ‘Borrowed Against the House and Piled Up Debts’ (Exclusive)

Fears are mounting that Britney Spears could wind up totally broke unless she finds a way to stop the financial bleeding, Star has learned.

“People around her are seriously alarmed,” reveals a source. “This isn’t just one tax bill or a bad month. The money has been flying out the door for a long time and it’s finally catching up with her.”

The IRS alleges that the Princess of Pop, 44, owes them more than $600,000 from the year 2021 — a claim she is currently fighting  in court, per a report published by TMZ on December 19.

“Britney’s pulled millions from pension and savings accounts, borrowed against the house and piled up debts that still haven’t been settled,” spills the source. “At the same time, she insists on living like she’s still on top of the world. Private jets, five-star vacations, luxury rentals and footing the bill for her so-called friends.”

Just how fast are her funds dwindling? Per Celebrity Net Worth, Spears’ estimated fortune shrunk from $60 million to $40 million in 2025.

“The biopic money won’t even come close to covering what Britney owes and that’s been a huge wake-up call,” Star’s source says of the upcoming adaptation of her bestselling memoir, The Woman in Me. “But when anyone tries to talk sense to Britney about her spending, she brushes them off and acts like they’re crazy to worry, that she’ll never run out of cash.”

They might not be.

“Unless some secret payday is around the corner, no one can point to where that money is supposed to come from,” notes the source, adding that if something doesn’t change fast, “Britney really could burn through everything she has left.”
