Britney Spears said she had the 'better' version of her 2002 Versace dress.
Doesn’t seem like Britney Spears would like Blake Lively to play her in her biopic!
On Saturday, August 10, the pop star, 42, seemingly shaded Lively — who wore a custom 2002 Versace dress formerly worn by Spears to the It Ends With Us premiere — by saying her short version is “better” than the original.

Britney Spears showed of a short version of her 2002 Versace dress that 'shows my legs.'
“Updated version of my 2002 Versace dress!!! I Like it way better… Shows my legs!!!” she wrote alongside a video of herself in a blue and pink bejeweled mini dress.
The celeb whipped her blonde locks back and forth as she showed off her form of the look.
The clip came after Lively announced she would be interested in being a part of Spears’ biopic, which was recently green lighted.
On Tuesday, August 6, while wearing the 2002 gown Spears originally wore at Milan Fashion Week, Lively gushed over paying homage to the “Toxic” singer.

Blake Lively wore a custom Versace dress that was originally modeled by Britney Spears in 2002 at the 'It Ends With Us' premiere.
The blonde beauty, 36, said she’d "love" to be casted for the Princess of Pop's biopic — which is based on Spears' October 2023 memoir, The Woman in Me.
"I shouldn’t be hired for that but I would love to be," Lively said of the blockbuster, which Universal recently won the right to and is set to be directed by Wicked director Jon M. Chu.
