BRITNEY Spears fans are furious over Jamie Lynn's interview on the Call Her Daddy podcast after the actress was asked to expose private text messages between her and her sister.

Supporters of the pop star are calling for the podcast to be cancelled following the request.

On Monday, the platform's official Twitter page shared a clip from their sit down with Jamie Lynn prior to the release of the two-part series.

In the teaser, podcast host Alexandra Cooper asked Jamie Lynn to read a text exchange she had with Britney, 40, that "clears her name" from having any involvement from her sister's over a decade-long conservatorship.

The actress then proceeded to fish for her phone to locate the texts before the clip cut out.

Fans of the singer voiced their anger over the on-air request in the comments section, demanding that the podcast be shut down.

One person wrote: "I repeat, ANY platform giving Jamie Lynn Spears a platform to manipulate this situation is part of the problem. Yuck."

Another user slammed the podcast writing: "the fact that you even gave her airtime on your podcast… won't be listening to you anymore! this is just sad. smh…"

The backlash continued with a slew of other tweets dissing the show.

"This is absolutely disgusting!"

"I knew this podcast was trash, but this is more than enough confirmation"

"This is low. I can't even believe you'd do this."

Several others echoed the statement, calling for the podcast's end in lieu of the episode.

"I'm disgusted. Why would you give her a platform. Cancel call her daddy"

"Can we cancel Call Her Daddy now?????"

"delete your whole podcast lmao"

Others agreed and attempted to get the hashtag #BOYCOTTCALLHERDADDY trending to deter listeners from tuning into the show.

The interview comes as the actress released a new bombshell book titled Things I Should Have Said, unveiling a series of shocking claims about growing up with Britney.

BOMBSHELL BOOK

In February 2008, Britney was involuntarily placed under a conservatorship after a period of public breakdowns and personal troubles.

After more than a decade, a judge terminated it last year, after Britney was finally able to give testimony about what she’d been through and her current state.

In Jamie Lynn’s book, which was released on Tuesday, the Sweet Magnolias actress shared her view of what led to the conservatorship being put in place, including claims that Britney was very “disturbed” during that time.

She wrote that while living in California to work on her Nickelodeon show Zoey 101, Jamie Lynn and her mom thought about living with Britney in Malibu but ultimately decided agaisnt it.

“As much as we wanted to all be together, it became increasingly obvious that something was out of whack in Britney’s world,” the 30-year-old wrote. 

Jamie Lynn continued: “At first, I just assumed it was the fallout from her divorce [from Kevin Federline in 2007] and the media obsession with her. 

“But my normally sweet and free-spirited sister continued to morph into someone else—who was disturbed and paranoid at times.”

She claimed: “Sometimes she would lash out for no apparent reason or ignore me. Invariably, Britney would feel bad and later apologize. 

“As far as I could tell, she lacked any kind of structure or schedule to her chaotic life. Momma sensed Britney needed help, but she kept insisting she was fine.”

Despite Britney’s supposed “emotional fluctuations,” Jamie Lynn said she and her family tried to make sure no one ever knew about any of it because they thought that was what was “best for everyone.”

The youngest Spears sibling claimed she continued to see her sister change from “fun-loving and sweet-natured” to someone who had “lost her softness” and was an “agitated woman.”

Still, she continued to blame it on just her “divorce and having two babies in a single year.”

“She became distant, even when we were sitting three feet away from each other,” Jamie Lynn claimed. “She was moody, and her erratic behaviors were troubling.”

At one point, the actress alleged, Britney became so “paranoid and erratic” that she “took a large knife from the kitchen, pulled me along to my room, and she locked us both inside.” 

Jamie Lynn continued in her claim: “She put the knife in the bedside table drawer and simply repeated, ‘I’m scared.’ 

“She needed me to sleep beside her.”

BRITNEY FIGHTS BACK

After telling a version of the story during an ABC interview last week, Britney took to social media to shut down the allegation.

Taking control of her narrative, Britney denied the accusations and wrote to Jamie Lynn: "… you've stooped to a whole new level of low…"

She said: "I've never been around you ever with a knife or would I ever think to do such!

"The only knife I ever saw you with at home was cutting the biggest piece of squash I ever saw in my life and it was way too big for me to cut."

Britney continued in the sister feud: "So please, please stop with these crazy lies for the Hollywood books."

As The Sun exclusively reported, Britney plans to tell her own story eventually and possibly will sit down with Oprah Winfrey for the highly-anticipated interview.
