Britney Spears seen with bandage and cut after bizarre video of her dancing with knives

Britney Spears has been seen sporting a bandage and a cut after uploading a video of her dancing with knives.

The pop star sparked a lot of concern amongst her fans when the clip went onto Instagram.

It showed her in a short red and white top, black choker necklace and white bikini bottoms.

She was also brandishing two fairly large knives and was whipping them around her face and body while she busted out a few moves in her living room.

Britney wrote in a caption alongside the video: "I started playing in the kitchen with knives today !!! Don’t worry they are NOT real knives !!! Halloween is soon."

While they might not be real, it was enough to make her supporters worried.

One X user said: "Im sorry but she does not act like she is well."

Another added: "Instead of standing with Britney how about supporting getting some help for Britney."

A third commented: "Cries for help aren't always verbalized. Sometimes behavior tells you a lot without saying anything at all."

However, others defended the singer.

A user wrote: "It wasn't dangerous. Good grief. Leave the woman alone and get a hobby."

"So what, she has done this routine before, as have many dancers, they use knives lit on fire also... Leave Brittany Aloneeeeeahhhh," a second said.

A third added: "She's mimicking Shakira?! Skills."

But she's since uploaded another two videos of her in the same outfit, which could mean they were all shot at the same time as the knife-wielding moment.

Both videos feature the same dancing element, however the second shows Spears with a bandage on her wrist and a cut on her leg.

It's unclear how or why those came to be but, I mean, she was literally just playing with knives, even though they were 'fake'.

Let's hope it was something completely unrelated.
