Justin Baldoni, Britney Spears resurfaced clip raises questions

Justin Baldoni and Britney Spears’ first meeting did not go according to plan, as he revealed in a resurfaced clip.

The 40-year-old star appeared to be discussing the awkward experience in an 2017 interview, where he recalled the moment when Spears was a guest star in Jane the Virgin.

“I know she was a fan of the show. We were shooting and then a few of us that weren’t in scenes with her came to watch one of her scenes. Because I had tweeted her and she had tweeted me back, I’d gone up to her [too], so in my mind we were friends, but we weren’t. I went up and I gave her a big hug and I think I scared her,” he told Fuse in a clip that is making rounds all over social media.

Following the uncomfortable interaction, the It Ends With Us star saw his co-stars laughing, which made him wonder, “Did I just harass Britney Spears?”

He went on to say, “I was a huge Britney Spears fan in high school…The guest star I was most excited to work with was Britney Spears. And then it turned out, I didn’t get to work with her. And there was zero scenes with Rafael and Britney Spears — probably at her request.”

The viral moment circulated on social media after Blake Lively filed a complaint of sexual assault, and launching a smear campaign, against her It Ends With Us co-star.

Baldoni responded days later with his own lawsuit, in which he sued The New York Times for $250 million after its reporting on Lively’s legal action.
