Britney Spears was allegedly slapped in Vegas by Victor Wembanyama’s security who backhanded her in the face after she tapped the NBA player on the back for a photo.
She reportedly filed a police report for battery, and an investigation is pending.
That’s when a member of his security team allegedly got physical with her, TMZ reports.
Spears reportedly got close enough to Wembanyama to tap him on the back of his right shoulder to get his attention.
Sources say the Director of Team Security for the San Antonio Spurs — whom law enforcement sources later named as Damian Smith — spotted the attempted interaction and swiftly gave Spears a backhanded slap to the face.
The blow was reportedly strong enough to knock the singer to the floor, and it even knocked her glasses of her head.
Despite the shocking altercation, Spears got to her feet and went back to her table while staying composed.
The same man who had hit her in the face then reportedly dropped by her table to apologize.
‘You understand how it is when you’re being swarmed by fans,’ he reportedly told her before saying he was sorry.
Source also said he claimed not to have realized that it was the internationally famous pop star trying to get Wembanyama’s attention, and not just a random fan.
Britney Spears says she was assaulted by a member of Victor Wembanyama’s security detail on Wednesday in Las Vegas, according to a police report obtained by TMZ.
TMZ reports the incident took place at 8:30 p.m. at a Las Vegas hotel, with Spears entering a restaurant with husband Sam Asghari and two others. It was at that time she saw the No. 1 overall draft pick of the 2023 NBA Draft — who is in town for the Las Vegas Summer League — and walked over to ask whether they could take a photo together.
