These Videos of Britney Spears's Sons Scaring Her Prove They're the Ultimate Pranksters

By Karenna Meredith

Lesson number one in Britney Spears's household: do not leave your phone unattended unless you're ready to get scared. The 36-year-old singer's sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James Federline, have gotten into the habit of pranking their mom by sneaking up on her when she least expects it, and of course they catch the whole thing on camera.

This pattern of scaring Britney and sharing the video on social media has happened not once, not twice, but three times now. Luckily, she can switch from her furious mom mode to camera-ready at the drop of a hat. Ahead, see all the videos Britney has shared of her boys playing sneaky tricks. Her captions suggest she's probably not too mad about the scares . . . just quietly plotting her revenge.

It all started in 2016, when Sean and Jayden scared Britney on camera for the first time . . .

Britney literally falls to the floor when they catch her by surprise.

Then, the boys tried a "take two" in 2017 . . .

She cleverly captioned the photo with "Pay back is a ....... well, I think you know, my friends 😜😂😜," hinting at future revenge.

Finally, in 2018 the kids are still at it . . .

Looks like this might become a family tradition. Your move, Britney.
