Pop star Britney Spears helped boost knife sales following her viral knife dancing video that was released on Monday.
The 41-year-old pop star took to Instagram to share a video of herself dancing with what she claimed was a fake knife. Although fans doubt its authenticity, it has boosted sales of the prop shop he shouts about in later videos.
Britney Spears Helps Save LA Prop Store Following Viral Knife Dancing Video
After Monday’s dance video went viral on Instagram, the “Toxic” singer took to Instagram on Thursday to share another look of her dancing with her knife. He insisted that they were fake and even named the store where his team allegedly bought them.
“I know I scared everyone with the last post, but this is a fake knife that my team rented from the Hand Prop store in LA. This is not a real knife,” he wrote in the caption. “Nobody needs to worry or call the police. I tried to imitate one of my favorite performers Shakira … a performance that inspired me !!! Congratulations to us bad girls who aren’t afraid to push boundaries and take risks ??????!”

On Sunday night, TMZ reported that Britney’s shout-out actually helped save the struggling store, which has seen a drop in sales since the WGA writers’ strike and the SAG-AFTRA actors’ strike hit the entertainment industry hard. The store manager told TMZ that online traffic and calls to the store have doubled since Thursday.
The manager also revealed that rental sales of their props, including their knives, have nearly doubled since Britney’s video went viral. It seems like everyone wants to know if Britney actually got her fake knife from the store, and it looks like she did.
Britney Says Her Knife Dancing Video Is In Preparation For Halloween
Last Monday, the “Oops!… I Did It Again” singer revealed that she danced with a fake knife in preparation for Halloween.
“I started playing in the kitchen with knives today ??♀️??♀️??♀️ !!! Don’t worry they are NOT real knives !!! Halloween is coming soon ??? !!!” she wrote in the caption.
However, some fans do not believe that the knives are fake, especially considering the “clunk” they make that causes the dog to run away. Fans also had more reason to be suspicious when he posted another video showing bruises and various injuries.
SWIPE To See Britney’s Injury Video
On Tuesday night, she followed it up with an Instagram post showing her dancing barefoot in her living room without any knives. However, when fans swiped to the next slide in his carousel, they could see him dancing with bandages on his arms, scratches on his legs and bruises on his lower back.
“My ‘Pretty Woman’ top … kinda cool after my briefing on polka dots ???????? !!!! Swipe to see both!!!” Britney wrote in the caption, making no mention of her various injuries. The lack of bruises or cuts in his later videos has led many fans to assume that he may have been trolling.
Britney Spears Calls Out Police Who Conducted Welfare Checks On Wednesday Night
Perhaps alarmed by the bruises, fans began calling the police to conduct a welfare check on the pop star. They showed up at his residence Wednesday night and were able to determine that the “Overprotected” singer was fine. However, it seems the meeting didn’t go so well for Britney, who took some time out to call them out on Saturday night.
“Is it a joke in the news again with the health check??? Come on America … we’re better than that, aren’t we???” he wrote in the caption. “Officers came to my house and said they wouldn’t leave until they talked to me when people did a 4-minute show with them.”
He stated that he got an apology before going on to say, “I’ve been bullied in my house for so long…ENOUGH! Don’t talk about it, come on, let’s DO it!!! Since my mom does the silent treatment when the paps ask questions about her own daughter as if I’m wrong…nope, that’s the old game. People need to be responsible for their actions! This is about power for the police.”
