Stop hitting yourself, Britney Spears. Stop hitting yourself

Can’t see from that angle, but from all the reports it doesn’t seem like she did.

Also wtf did she think would happen? Running up to currently the most famous person in the country from behind and trying to touch him is peak stupidity, especially from someone who would instruct her own security to do the same thing.

Yeah I was thinking that too. It’s an unfortunate thing to happen, maybe if she could have come from the front so that security and Victor could have seen it was Britney Spears trying to get his attention then it might have played out differently. I wonder if the security in that second thought “oh shit, that was Britney I blocked” but had to keep it rolling since that’s his job as security.

Although I wonder if Wemby even knows who Britney is to even recognise her? Lol, he might be too young.

It’s what I would do to a close friend I saw somewhere unexpectedly. Not someone I don’t know, much less someone with a security detail!

Hitting herself is not a good look.

The whole thing seems like a weird non-story. Britney has been pretty incontroversial from what I know. It seemed like she thought it would be OK to reach out to him, the security guard overreacted, and the whole thing went a bit sideways.
