Britney Spears' Fiancé Sam Asghari Accuses Filmmakers Of Profiting Off Pop Star's Pain Hours After Netflix Drops Documentary Trailer
Sam Asghari appears to be quite the protective fiance. The 27-year-old fitness model showed support for a comment made online that labeled the new Netflix documentary on the pop star "exploitive."
His reaction came just hours after the streamer released the teaser for Britney vs. Spears.
Netflix posted the trailer on their Instagram page to announce the release date next week on Sept. 28.
Lady Gaga's former manager Bobby Campbell commented on the post, questioning how much the third parties are profiting from the film and the direction the money is spent.
"How much money is being made by third parties from this documentary leveraging Britney's personal story and its value in the media? " he wrote. "There needs to be transparency about how or whether the filmmakers are profiting from this doc, or if defense, or to legal defense funds to aide those who do not have the financial resources to fight against undue conservatorships."
Bobby continued by claiming the project can be seen as "exploitative" regardless of the intention behind it.
"Even if it is in support of freeing Britney, this appears that it could be exploitative," he added.
The Persian actor later chimed in with a comment that agreed with Bobby's statement using the 100 emoji. He added his piece in the comment section, writing, "I hope the profit from these docs go towards fighting against injustice," accompanied by hashtag #freebritney
