Britney Spears was involved in a physical altercation with NBA star Victor Wembanyama’s security time while in Las Vegas on Wednesday, July 5, Us Weekly can confirm.
“Britney saw Victor and walked up to tap him on the back to ask for a photo,” a source told to Us of the incident. “His security was being mobbed with fans and he turned around trying to push Britney off and hit her in the face, knocking off her glasses.”
The San Antonio Spurs player’s head of security then “went over to Britney and apologized and their security teams chatted for a while,” the insider said, noting that “a police report was filed by Britney’s team.”

The “Toxic” songstress, 41, entered Catch restaurant located inside the ARIA Hotel on Wednesday around 8:30 p.m. PT, the source confirmed. Spears was with her husband, Sam Asghari, and a member of her security team when the incident transpired.
TMZ was first to report the news, confirming on Thursday, July 6, that the director of team security for the Spurs, Damian Smith, is listed as the person who hit Spears during the scuffle.
Details of the police report — and whether or not Spears is seeking criminal charges — have yet to be revealed.
