According to reports, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department has “checked” on pop star Britney Spears after she posted some disturbing videos on Instagram dancing with knives.
The Oops!… I Did It Again songstress left fans concerned after she posted a video on Instagram where she was dancing with two knives as her two little dogs watched on. The star later assured her fans that the knives weren’t real but some people seemed to not believe her.
According to TMZ, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department got calls from worried fans and dispatched a team to perform a welfare check on Britney. According to the outlet, once officers arrived, they spoke with Britney’s security who assured them she was alright but didn’t want to speak to them.

Britney’s attorney later called the police station to discuss the visit and they assured him they only made the visit because the call was made by someone who knew Britney and they don’t make the welfare checks just for fan calls. Britney has not yet spoken out about the reports but previously told fans to “lighten up” about the video.

Daily Star has contacted Britney’s reps for comment. Earlier this week Britney took to social media and said: “Lighten up about the knives. I’m copying Shakira.”
She also changed the caption of her original video to: “I started playing in the kitchen with knives today!!! Don’t worry they are NOT real knives !!! Halloween is soon.” However, a lot of fans weren’t convinced and one fan noted that they could hear a “clang” when she hit the knives together.

Someone wrote: “Those poor dogs [dog emoji] just ran scared, they need to be rescued and she needs help. This is a cry for help and she is not ok and is really going to hurt someone.” Another typed: “The knives made a clanking [noise]. They’re clearly real. Real enough to fall on and kill one of those poor worried pups.”
Other fans didn’t agree and they rushed to the Princess of Pop’s defence. One fan penned: “Shakira did this in front of millions yet not one person said s***. This isn’t a big deal, it’s literally fake knives.” While another wrote: “Look at her form in this video! She’s not going to hurt anyone.”

The fan’s concern comes after there were reports that Britney is “fascinated with knives.” Reports claimed that those close to her “prepared a list of recommendations” after her conservatorship ended. One of those recommendations was to “keep knives away from her.”
