And the crowd loved the change, issuing a collective awwww.
Asghari filed for divorce last week—just hours after TMZ broke the news that he and Spears were separating after an argument involving cheating allegations. Spears has remained silent on the split (other than revealing she’s buying a horse), but a source told People that she’s “in great spirits despite everything going on.”
“Obviously it's never an easy thing to go through, but she’s remaining positive and focusing on the future,” the insider said, noting that Spears “is focused on her book release, has an upcoming writers’ camp and is getting songs from some big artists. Ideally she would love to do a new record soon, and maybe a powerful song for the book’s release.”
