Overview
- Reports from diners say Spears raised her voice, made barking noises, and briefly walked past a table with a knife at Blue Dog Tavern in Sherman Oaks on Wednesday.
- Staff asked that a cigarette be put out near the door, and witnesses said security later escorted her home with no injuries or police response reported.
- Spears’ representative called the coverage exaggerated, saying she told a story about her dog, used a table knife to split a hamburger, and never put anyone in danger.
- Entertainment journalist Jeff Sneider, who said he was seated nearby, posted that the scene felt wild and that one diner said she feared for her life.
- The coverage follows her May 4 plea to a lesser ‘wet reckless’ charge after a March DUI arrest, which placed her on 12 months’ probation and continued treatment following a brief rehab stay.
