Britney Spears explains disturbing knife video following police welfare check
Fox News
Britney Spears clarified a dancing video shared to Instagram where she was holding knives after it prompted police to perform a welfare check at the pop star's home.
"I know I spooked everyone with the last post, but these are fake knives that my team rented from Hand Prop shop in LA," she explained. "These are not real knives. No one needs to worry or call the police. I’m trying to imitate one of my favorite performers Shakira … a performance I was inspired by !!! Cheers to us bad girls who aren’t afraid to push boundaries and take risks"
The Ventura County Sheriff's Department conducted a welfare check at Spears' home on Wednesday after she shared the original video, Fox News Digital confirmed. A post shared by Maria River Red (@britneyspears) A post shared by Maria River Red (@britneyspears)
