Britney Spears is speaking out. The songstress is addressing the security guard that allegedly «back handed» her in the face on Wednesday in Las Vegas.Spears took to Instagram to call out the security guard -- Damian Smith, the Director of Team Security for the San Antonio Spurs — who allegedly hit her when she approached NBA star Victor Wembanyama and tapped him on the shoulder at the ARIA Hotel.«Traumatic experiences are not new to me and I have had my fair share of them.

I was not prepared for what happened to me last night,» Spears wrote in a post on Thursday. «I recognized an athlete in my hotel lobby as I was heading to dinner.

I later went to a restaurant at a different hotel and saw him again. I decided to approach him and congratulate him on his success.»According to Spears, Wembanyama's comments about her behavior — which he made to a reporter on Thursday after a workout — were a misrepresentation of events.«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 him on the shoulder,» she wrote. «His security then back handed me in the face without looking back, in front of a crowd.
