Britney Spears is one of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood-after all, she was its darling since she was a child, and despite being a star herself, she cannot help but fangirl over other celebrities as well.
According to reports, the "Toxic" singer was trying to get a picture with Victor Wambanyama, an NBA player for the San Antonio Spurs, when his security team shut her down.
The security, who was identified as the Director of Team Security for the Spurs, allegedly backhanded Spears which knocked her off her feet.
He later apologized to her, which she accepted, but Spears reportedly filed a police report.
Reports did not note whether Sam Asghari, Spear's husband, did something during the incident or if he had defended the singer in any way during that time.
Sam Asghari Condemns Violence, Especially Towards Britney Spears
Asghari, however, eventually took to social media to address the debacle and wrote on his Instagram Stories: "I am opposed to violence in any form, especially without justification in the defense of yourself or someone else who is unable to defend themselves.
"Self-defense can be unavoidable, but the defense of any woman, especially my wife, is not debatable,
"I consider my reaction subdued considering what occurred, and I hope the man in question learns a lesson and changes his disregard for women."
Perhaps as a follow-up to the fans who are valiantly defending Spears' honor, and bashing Wembanyama, who just signed with the Spurs, Asghari took to Instagram Stories once again.
"The blame should fall on the coward who did this, the people who hired him without proper vetting, and a systematic culture of disregard for women within sports and entertainment," he continued.
"I can't imagine a scenario where an unarmed female fan showing any kind of excitement or appreciation for a celebrity would cause her to be physically assaulted, much less being hit in the face for tapping someone on the shoulder."
Is Britney Spears Ok?

Spears' fans just continue to send her best wishes and their support online.
