Britney Spears is reported to have filed a police report alleging she was assaulted by a member of Victor Wembanyama’s security detail this week.
TMZ is reporting that the singer was administered a backhanded slap to the face by security looking after the first-overall pick of the 2023 NBA Draft on Wednesday night while she was trying to get a photo with him at the ARIA Hotel.
Per the aforementioned publication, Britney was with her husband, Sam Asghari, and two other individuals around 8:30 PM when she spotted Victor on her way to the Catch restaurant at the resort.
Having gotten swarmed by fans herself, she went over to the French star to ask for a photo, tapping him on his right shoulder to get his attention. However, the Spurs’ Director of Team Security immediately backhanded her, throwing her to the ground and knocking her glasses off.
Britney composed herself and walked over to her table before the security member came over to apologize.
“You understand how it is when you’re being swarmed by fans,” he is said to have told her.
