A big part of opening day festivities is the ceremonial first pitch that a special guest throws before the start of the game. Britney Spears showed support for her favorite team in a special moment on opening day in 2013.
Britney Spears appeared in a video for the Los Angeles Dodgers
Way back in 2013, pop sensation Britney Spears showed her support for the Los Angeles Dodgers by appearing in their opening day video. In the video leading up to the ceremonial first pitch, Spears said, “Scream and shout, Dodger fans”. Spears was referring to her 2012 song of the same name ‘Scream and shout’. She was even shown sitting with a Dodgers jersey that had her name on it.
Many baseball fans were surprised that the pop star was a baseball fan and, more specifically, a Dodgers fan. But Spears showed her support for the team by appearing in the video. And playing a part in such a rather special occasion for the organization.
Spears even came to a home game later that season along with her two sons. And she was spotted taking pictures with some of the Dodgers players. After watching this, one can surely say that Spears is team Dodgers.
