Britney Spears left her fans astounded with her recent dance video, which soon went viral. The internet was set ablaze as fans and critics alike were shocked by the pop icon’s dance moves with two knives in each of her hands. A good number of fans expressed their worry regarding the 41-year-old’s personal safety and the safety of her dogs that were wandering in the background of the footage. Interestingly, it was a reference to Gerard Pique’s ex-girlfriend, Shakira.
However, following the whirlwind of reactions, Spears has now asked her fans to calm down. She ᴀssured her followers that she was just copying the Latin American star. Let’s dive deeper to find out how the ‘Toxic Pony’ singer dealt with the situation.
Not even in her wildest dream would Britney Spears have imagined that fans would feel disturbed after coming across her knife dance. On Monday, Spears posted a video of her twirling around with a butcher knife on her Instagram handle.
When fans pointed out the danger behind her actions, Spears went back and edited the caption of the knife dance video to, “I started playing in the kitchen with knives today!!! Don’t worry they are NOT real knives !!! Halloween is soon!!!” She made it clear that the knife was not real and that people should not worry about her safety.
Following this, she recently posted another dancing video where she added a caption addressing the knife dance controversy. She wrote, “Lighten up about the knives I’m copying Shakira!!!” The Barranquilla native indeed danced with a pair of knives on stage at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards.
However, she received widespread praise for her performance. After making headlines for her stunning performance at the Awards, Shakira also captured the attention of the fans when she confessed how she dreamt of spending her entire life with her ex-boyfriend, Gerard Pique.
The ‘She Wolf’ later described the magical love that exists between her parents.
