Britney Spears Continues to Be 'A Huge Fan' of Victor Wembanyama, Acknowledging It's Not His Fault

Britney Spears speaks out after security guard incident, denies grabbing him.

In a recent incident involving a security guard, Britney Spears, the renowned pop star, has come forward to address the situation after a video of the incident went viral on social media. Contrary to previous claims made by the security guard, the video clearly shows that Britney tapped him on the back and did not "grab" him, as he had alleged. Although the security guard will not face criminal charges, Britney felt the need to speak out about the incident.

Taking to Instagram on Friday night, Britney expressed her thoughts and feelings regarding the incident. She highlighted her extensive experience in the industry, having been associated with some of the most famous people in the world. Drawing a parallel between NSYNC and The Beatles, she emphasized the intense fan frenzy that surrounds celebrities. Britney stressed that throughout her career, she had never witnessed a security guard resorting to violence against another person.

Britney clarified that she was not sharing her story to portray herself as a victim, but rather to provide an honest account of her reaction to the incident. She acknowledged that her response may not have been ideal, but she explained that it stemmed from a place of helplessness and frustration. She alluded to unauthorized documentaries made about her life and expressed her lack of control over such situations. Britney also mentioned her experience in Las Vegas and how her reaction was a cry for attention on multiple levels.

The pop star went on to express her disappointment in the way she has been treated as an equal person in the country. She mentioned how the people who gathered around her after the incident made her feel valued and acknowledged. Britney revealed that she had watched the security footage of the incident, which helped her gain a better understanding of what had transpired. She admitted that at the time, she was not fully aware of the events unfolding around her and that her expletive-laden outburst was a better alternative to physically retaliating.

Britney concluded her statement by expressing her continued admiration for the NBA player involved in the incident. She made it clear that she did not hold him responsible for the actions of his security guard, as accidents can happen. Finally, she wished her followers a wonderful Friday, signifying her desire to move forward from the incident.

On Friday afternoon, TMZ released a video that provided a clearer picture of what had occurred on Wednesday night. Initially, some fans were skeptical of an eyewitness claim that Britney had been speaking in a British accent. However, the video confirmed that she did approach Victor, the athlete, and called out to him in a British accent. She tapped him on the left shoulder, contradicting his previous claim of being grabbed from behind.

In response, Victor's security guard forcefully slapped Britney's hand away. The video does not clearly show whether the slap made contact with her face or if it merely caused her hand to bounce back and hit her own face. Nevertheless, the sound of the slap is audible in the video. Contrary to initial reports, Britney did not fall to the ground, but her glasses were knocked off her face.

In a fit of anger, Britney exclaimed, "That's America for you. F -- you all" in a British accent before returning to her table. A different eyewitness later revealed that Britney's security team brought Victor's security guard over to apologize. The eyewitness described Britney as being in a state of shock and anger, retreating to the bathroom after the incident.

In a statement shared on Instagram the following night, Britney recounted the incident in her own words. She explained that she had recognized the athlete in the hotel lobby and decided to approach him to congratulate him on his success. Due to the loud environment, she tapped him on the shoulder to get his attention. Britney clarified that she never grabbed him from behind, as stated by the player. Instead, his security guard struck her in the face without looking back, causing her glasses to fly off.

Towards the end of her statement, Britney expressed her disappointment in not receiving a public apology from the player, his security, or their organization. She expressed hope that they would rectify this situation by offering an apology.
