Yup. That’s Doc. Antle in a cage with a tiger (in the back) giving the iconic pop star's performance a more jungle-ish feel. 

Doc. Antle, is a wildlife scientist and founder of the Myrtle Beach Safari and the Rare Species Fund who is featured on “Tiger King.” He is also known for working on over 500 movies and documentaries like “Ace Ventura,” “Dr. Doolittle” among others according to the Myrtle Beach Safari website.

If that wasn't surprising enough, take a look at this!

Fans found a photo of Britney sitting next to a woman at the 2002 VMA's who appears to be Carole Baskin, the animal activist who was blamed for feeding her millionaire husband to the tigers.

This is how fans have reacted:

If you haven’t watched “Tiger King” yet what are you waiting for? The show is about the insane true crime story about ‘Joe Exotic,’ a wildcat enthusiast who owned numerous exotic cats and other large animals that lived in his Zoo in Oklahoma. The docuseries examines Joe's seething hatred and rivalry with animal rights activist Carole Baskin.
