LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The Princess of Pop claims that while she was a patient in a psychiatric facility, doctors drew large amounts of blood from her weekly, denied her privacy in the shower, and made her sit in a chair for ten hours a day. In a 22-minute YouTube tirade, Britney Spears complained that "six gallons" of blood were taken from her every week during her time as a patient in a mental facility. She also claimed that she didn’t have a door on her room, saying security guards and others at the facility “watched me change naked every day.”

The now-private recording, which the 40-year-old singer released Sunday evening, August 28, provided new information about the controversial conservatorship that ended last April after more than 15 years. In the video, she talks about her delivery, which is believed to have taken place at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.
