Britney Spears has been in a supportive relationship with boyfriend Sam Asghari for over four years, and it seems the actor and fitness influencer is ready to take things to the next level.
“My priorities in life are to remain humble and understand where I came from and where I’m going,” Asghari shared in an interview with Forbes. “I want to take my career to the next step when it comes to acting. I want to take my relationship to the next step, as well. I don’t mind becoming a father. I want to be a young dad.”
The 27-year-old went on to detail how he met the pop star in 2016, revealing that he almost passed on being in her “Slumber Party” video, where they first made a connection.
“I wanted to do TV, I wanted to do film,” he said. “My acting strategy was kind of to go away from music videos. I didn’t want to do more and be known as a music video actor, but a good friend of mine was working on a project and they referred me to the team that was picking out the leading role for ‘Slumber Party.'”
“My girlfriend now at the time, personally she picked my picture and she wanted me to be cast in the music video,” he continued, referring to Spears. “My friend called me and said, ‘I need you to be on it. Trust me, you want to show up.’
“I didn’t know who was shooting. It was a secret project. So I showed up because of my friend. I showed up and everything just kicked off from there,” he recalled.
