Ouch. Britney Spears just pulled the modern-day version of Mariah Carey’s “I don’t know her.”
When asked in an interview with Kyle & Jackie O, Britney was asked to choose between Team Katy and Team Tay. “I don’t know.

Maybe because I’ve met Katy Perry I would say Taylor Swift, because I’ve never met her before,” she said.
Apparently, she’d forgotten this moment from 2003:
