Britney Spears Says She Was ‘Copying’ Shakira in Video, Knives Were ‘Fake’

Britney Spears really wants everyone to believe that the knives she was seen dancing with while her dogs looked scared in the bacground aren't real.

Spears posts videos of herself dancing on Instagram all the time, but one of her latest dispatches sparked some real concern. In it, Spears dances as usual, except for the fact that she’s holding a large knife in each hand. It was speculated that Spears was inspired by Shakira’s recent VMAs performance, which Spears later confirmed while telling concerned parties to “lighten up about the knives.”

Now, following reports that the LAPD conducted a welfare check on Spears after the knife video, Spears has again spoken up (and shared another knife-dancing video while she was at it).

The video shared last night (September 28) again shows Spears flailing knives around as she moves, and in the caption, she explains that the knives were rented from a pop shop and that people don’t need to worry about her. She wrote, “I know I spooked everyone with the last post, but these are fake knives that my team rented from Hand Prop shop in LA. 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 !”

Check out the new video below.

Girl, get off my line with this BS. You had cuts all over your body which I believe indicates that the knives are in fact real, and prop knives don't make the same sounds that a real knife makes when you clang them together.

Her enablers - I mean stans wanted her to be free, well now she's free to do what she pleases for attention, because I truly believe the manic behavior we're witnessing in real time is more than just you were inspired by Shakira's dance at the VMAs - which, I should point out was a cultural dance she was doing because she's part Lebanese.

So Britney want's us not to worry about her? To that I say you are grown and in your forties, so be careful what you wish for Miss Mamas, because you just might get it.
