personality resurfaced in the aftermath of the series’ release, and Doc confirmed it while reminiscing about working with Spears.
The performance is best remembered for the moment Spears dances across the stage with a Burmese python named Banana draped around her, but it starts with the then 19-year-old in a cage with a live tiger, handled by none other than Bhagavan"Doc" Antle. "He'd always met women in his life -- because there's so many women trainers that raised him from a cub and hung out with him -- so he just thought Britney was one more friend," he adds."She petted him and was hugging on him and hanging out there with him."
