Britney Spears caught going on ‘bizarre rant in British accent’ just before she was slapped in Vegas, eyewitness claims
AN eyewitness has claimed that Britney Spears spoke in a different accent before getting slapped in Las Vegas.
Brian Grajales, a witness to the wild event, gave insight into what happened between Britney and a security guard of NBA basketball player Victor Wembanyama.
Brian spoke to about what he saw at Catch, a seafood restaurant and steakhouse at the ARIA Hotel in Las Vegas.
The witness said the Toxic singer had been trying to get an autograph from Wembanyama.
While trying to get his attention, Brian claimed she said “excuse me, sir” in a British accent and touched Wembanyama’s back.
That’s when the security guard “backhanded her,” Brian said, adding that he heard the slap.

However, Brian disagreed with the statement and saw the guard slap her and watched as her sunglasses flew off her face.
The witness also claimed that while Victor walked into the restaurant, he heard Britney yell "This is f**king America!" in an "angry tone."
