And what made it even more impressive? Britney showed NO fear during the performance, handling the situation like a pro onstage. However, it turns out she was not as cool, calm, and collected on the inside!
While promoting her upcoming memoir The Woman In Me, she revealed to fans on Instagram Wednesday that she was absolutely terrified performing with the snake! She wrote:
“One of my favorite performances was with an albino python … I still remember how scared I felt when I was handed this snake and took the stage !!! I talked more about this performance and other favorites in my book #TheWomanInMe … I can’t wait for you to read it on October 24th. @gallerybooks @simonschusteruk”
