As history goes, Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake‘s narratives are intertwined – albeit controversially.
And while the pair largely avoid discussion about the other following the now infamous “wardrobe malfunction” at the 2004 Super Bowl, JT wasn’t shy to salute one of Ms. Jackson’s most celebrated dance-moves last night.
See what we mean below…
With his ‘Man Of The Woods Tour’ resumed, the trek’s latest show saw Timberlake break into Janet’s ‘If’ choreography.

Hmm.
While the connection and choreo reference was clear, it turns out the NSYNC’er was saluting the creator of the moves – Janet’s former choreographer Tina Landon who was in the audience and celebrating her birthday.

Color us extra, but we feel Justin must do right by Janet publicly and explicitly before we can look at instances like this with anything but a “boy bye” side-eye.

tributes? more like mocks!
Thank you!
Why is he even attempting??????? He WILL fail.
Dummy.
He can miss me wit the B*******!!
Why are you trying to make something positive into negativity? You realize Justin is a fan of Janet correct? Janet was the one who introduced his choreographer Marty to him and has worked with Tina Landon.
You can’t be a fan of someone you left high and dry and vaguely apologized to. FOH.
Justin is a fan of Janet?? ?? no, JT used Janet, he’s no fan.
Exactly….he’s been mocking her since he ripped off her breast plate….he’s a f***** loser.
I believe Tina choreographed everything in “If” except the iconic breakdown, that honor goes to Janet’s dance partner in the video Omar.
#facts
he needs to not do anything janet related until he decodes to apologize to her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48V0GCP9Xl4
Oh ok , it’s always been apart of his plans surely!!??♂️
used to stan so hard for Justin but I’ve been on a rapid decline since he decided to shade Janet by not inviting him back to the Superbowl with him. Shade, cuz his bish ass OWES HER FOR WHEN HE THREW HER UNDER THE BUS IN AN EPIC D0UCH3BAG FASHION! FK Justin. FK him even harder for pulling this fkn stunt. This culture vulture has been capitalizing on our culture for too damn long. I’m glad I helped by deleting all of his music from my apple music, spotify & tidal accounts. BYE BYE BYE bish
I’m not a fan of Justin, but Janet did confirm “there was a conversation” about her participating with Justin. She declined.
He tried that. STILL A SIDEEYE NO FROM ME. A slight BOTOX moment on the forehead would be appreciated.

Lmfao ?? I miss Prince
That was a side eye look at this fools eating it up
Exactly, boy bye!! Either give a proper apology and acknowledgement of your mishap (and come up) in the situation or let it tf alone. Interesting how Janet has been on a comeback lately and getting so much positive press, meanwhile JT is canceling and rescheduling, having vocal issues, flopping up and down the charts etc…karma is inevitable.
Justin dances so white.
Boy is trying so hard to stay relevant. I shame Black people who still buy his music and shows.
A daily reminder Janet and her dead brother is who rotting in hell are child abusers.
Go f*** yourself with a spiked bat
Wow you support child molestors and abusers? Don’t have children, period. There’s a reason special place for people like two of those Jackson’s and people who support their every cruel ways.
Hmmm, he can keep that!
Marty gave Janet some of her best choreo with “All for You”. Then he started working heavily with Justin and Janet never used him again. I don’t blame her. I’m disappointed to see Tina at the show supporting Justin. I’m sure it was all planned to try to boost his image. He never misses an opportunity to get what he can from Michael and Janet’s legacies.
Janet is the one who introduced Marty to Justin in the first place.
Omar did the break in IF so ??♂️??
no thanks
When I saw this post I know ya gurls read Justin for trying to get back good with the black folks
Both Justin and Janet sucks so who cares really
You can tell that was genuine at all … he thinks he’s slick.
*wasn’t yikes!!!
JT get off Janet’s titty! She only has breast milk for her son. Thirsty ass
Omar Lopez & Keith Williams choreographed the breakdown for “If”
Rest In Paradise Keith ?
