Timberlake is no stranger to being atop the fanbase’s sh*tlist but their disdain for the NSYNC frontman was reignited in 2023 after her less-than-flattering take on their dissolved romantic relationship in her top-selling memoir ‘The Woman in Me.’

After the 42-year-old announced the arrival of his January 25-released new song ‘Selfish,’ the first single from his forthcoming album ‘Everything I Thought It Was,’ the #BritneyArmy sprang into action by streaming and downloading Britney’s 2011 ‘Femme Fatale‘ song of the same name (heard above).

By nightfall on Thursday the song had cracked the top 10 of iTunes’ real-time sales chart which at the time was reigned over by Timberlake.

By mid-day Friday (January 26), Spears had twirled past Timberlake on the hitlist’s U.S. edition.

  3. Justin Timberlake ruined Janet Jackson’s career by unveiling her top. Because of his white privilege, he didn’t suffer any of the backlash. January 26, 2024

    White privilege is still a thing.

      It’s not a privilege to be white. They are no better than anybody else. White bias is a thing, though, because people’s minds favor those people for some reason I can’t figure out.

    Justin Timberlake makes a career out of cultural appropriation. He deserves to get cancelled.
