AceShowbiz - Britney Spears did not throw shade at Blake Lively for recycling her vintage gown despite speculation. In contrary to what many believed, the pop icon is said to be "honored" by the actress' decision to copy her look.
A spokesperson for the "Toxic" singer clarified the matter following Britney's Instagram post on Saturday, August 10. Speaking to Page Six on Monday, the rep assured, "She did not shade Blake and felt honored."
Blake recycled Britney's 2002 Versace dress for the premiere of her newest movie "It Ends With Us". The dress featured an asymmetrical neckline and was covered in sparkles. "It should be in the Smithsonian or the Met, but it's on me," the actress told PEOPLE of wearing the dress. She further gushed, "I feel so lucky!"
On Saturday, Britney re-activated her Instagram account and posted a new video which saw her modeling an "updated version" of the dress, which she said she likes "way better" than the original because it "shows [her] legs."
In the clip, which was set to the Outfield's "Your Love", the sparkling, colorful dress looked much shorter than the original one. It featured skinny shoulder straps and side cutouts. She finished the look with a pair of nude pumps and some small jewelry pieces.
Britney originally wrote in her caption, "I LIKE IT WAY BETTER," but later edited it to compliment the "Gossip Girl" alum, "I'm no @blakelively but I like it." She has since removed the caption.
Meanwhile, Blake has continued to show her love to Britney despite fans' speculation. Showing that there's no hard feelings, the "Meg" star liked the "Lucky" singer's post that was thought to be a subliminal message aimed at the actress.
