Britney Spears’ representative has pushed back hard after TMZ alleged the 44-year-old singer acted “erratically” during dinner at Blue Dog Tavern in Sherman Oaks on May 13. The rep told PEOPLE Spears was having a quiet meal, cutting her hamburger in half, and telling a story about her dog barking at neighbors—while dismissing claims she endangered anyone with a knife as blown out of proportion. The backlash arrives days after Spears posted an Instagram “spiritual journey” photo involving a baby snake.
Britney Spears is back in the spotlight after reports of a disruptive night at Blue Dog Tavern in Sherman Oaks, California. Eyewitness accounts cited by TMZ say she was shouting and making barking noises while cigarette smoke appeared near the entrance, and one patron claimed she even carried a knife through the restaurant. Spears’ representatives strongly deny the dangerous allegations, saying she was dining with her assistant and bodyguard and telling a story about her dog barking. The incident comes soon after her reported rehab and DUI-related legal case.
