We finally have video of the incident between Victor Wembanyama’s security team and pop star Brittney Spears.
On Thursday, it was reported that Spears had been “backhanded” in the face by the NBA star’s security detail.
Spears says she was traumatized by the incident and demanded an apology from Wemby and the Spurs organization.
“Traumatic experiences are not new to me and I have had my fair share of them,” she started in a note. “I was not prepared for what happened to me last night.”
“It was really loud, so I tapped him on the shoulder to get his attention. I am aware of the player’s statement where he mentions I ‘grabbed him from behind’ but I simply tapped his shoulder,”
“His security then back handed me in the face without looking back, in front of a crowd,” the Grammy winner continued to claim. “Nearly knocking me down and causing my glasses to fall off my face.”
“Physical violence is happening too much in this world. Often behind closed doors, “I stand with all the victims and my heart goes out to all of you!!!”

TMZ got ahold of the video and it shows Spears running up behind Wembanyama and tapping him on the back before his security swiping her hand away.
The police reviewed the video and determined Spears hit herself in the face with her hand and there would be no charges filed in the case.
