Pop star Britney Spears has demanded a public apology from NBA star Victor Wembanyama’s guard who “backhanded” her causing her to fall to the ground.

In an Instagram video, Spears, 41, spoke about the run-in last week. “I heard on the news this radio station talking smack, that is why I’m addressing it.” She said the radio presenters were “saying that I deserved to be smacked, security was doing their job and protecting their client”.
