I got hit with that at the beginning&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wanted to be the normal part about that life because she never, I don&#8217;t think she had that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nSam &#8211; who moved to the US from Iran when he was 12 years old &#8211; was &#8220;familiar&#8221; with who Britney, 43, was before they met but &#8220;didn&#8217;t know&#8221; her music.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe admitted: \u201cI didn&#8217;t know any of the songs. If you put it on, I couldn&#8217;t tell you different.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\nThey quickly sparked a &#8220;natural connection&#8221; and agreed to go on a date for sushi weeks after shooting the music video, and romance grew from there.<\/p>\n<p>\nLooking back on their &#8220;traditional&#8221; courtship, Sam said: \u201cI got to know her a little bit, and she was super sweet and everything was perfect. And then after that, I think we went to a movie. We kept seeing each other for a very long time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nBut the &#8216;Traitors&#8217; contestant filed for divorce in August 2023, citing irreconcilable differences, and shortly afterwards, Britney sparked controversy when she shared a video of herself dancing with two knives.<\/p>\n<p>\nSam was asked his thoughts on the shocking clip and he insisted he wouldn&#8217;t have tried to stop her from sharing the footage.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe said: \u201cI&#8217;m not someone that&#8217;s \u2018Let me, let me take your phone from you and not allow you to do anything and restrict you from posting your own content.&#8217; <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;And, and especially if you&#8217;re an artist, I think, you know, we&#8217;re talking about she&#8217;s a genius artist. What&#8217;s in her head is gold, and it&#8217;s what made her who she is.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSo when you take away the ability to, you know, make art express yourself, I&#8217;m not gonna be the one that&#8217;s gonna stop anybody from posting whatever they want, especially if dance is the way you express yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/sam-asghari-wanted-normal-britney-spears-life-1413650.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>12 February 2025 Sam Asghari wanted to &#8220;be the normal part&#8221; of Britney Spears&#8216; life.
