Britney Spears Has A Surprisingly Simple Explanation For That Viral 'Knife' Incident At A Restaurant

LOADINGERROR LOADINGA rep for Britney Spears is defending the singer from accusations that she caused a scene at a Los Angeles-area restaurant Wednesday night by, as TMZ put it, “with barking, yelling and even a knife involved.”Spears, 44, was reportedly seen dining with two people, one of whom was a man she kept saying “I love you” to while they fed each other.Advertisement The representative clarified that Spears dined with her assistant and bodyguard at the Blue Dog Tavern in Sherman Oaks, but told a different story than the one reported by TMZ.Eyewitnesses told the outlet they heard Spears raising her voice, screaming and barking.One witness described the vibe as chaotic and “kind of sad” though the singer reportedly “still looked cute.”At one point, staffers had to ask a person with Spears to put out a cigarette she had lit inside, but the weirdest moment may have been when she walked through the restaurant holding a knife.Advertisement Entertainment journalist Jeff Sneider said on X that he was dining at the Blue Dog Tavern at the same time as Spears and called the incident both “WILD” and “INSANE,” adding “One diner feared for her life.
