Britney Spears a little something about the harsh spotlight that comes with fame and she sympathizes with other big stars, especially the young performers coming up who have to contend with the constant attention.

Spears has learned how to deal with the media since her days on "The Mickey Mouse Club" and releasing her debut album, "... Baby One More Time" in 1999. She avoids most technology and pays no attention to the tabloid headlines.

"Whoever is in the spotlight, people are really quick to judge. I mean, there are a lot of kids coming up who've experienced that," Spears told V Magazine in their 100th issue. "You know, Justin Bieber, he's huge, and he experiences that. It's just the way the world works, unfortunately. "

She continued, "I've been doing this for 20 years. I kind of don't pay attention to it. I have my relationship with God and myself and that's what matters to me. I really don't care what most people think."

Spears has a Twitter and Instagram account, but posts more the latter and avoids most other social media. She revealed her sons - 10-year-old Sean Preston and 9-year-old Jayden James" - "use the computer more than I do!" All that time wasted on social media and technology gives the Grammy-winning artist more time to write music and record her new album.

"Honestly, I'm just particular with this record. It's my baby, and so I really want it done right," she said. "I would much rather have it be completely how I want it to be, whether that takes another year for me to do, or two months. I have no idea at this point. But I just know that the direction I'm going in is so good. It's the best thing I've done in a long time."

She added, "I'm proud of the work, and it's very different; it's not what you would think at all. But I'm not rushing anything. I just want it to be done right, so that my fans will truly appreciate it."

While recording the new album, Spears continues to perform her Las Vegas residency show, "Piece of Me," at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. She recently added 24 more dates that run from June 17 to Sept. 10. Tickets go on sale Friday, March 4.
