Justin Timberlake ’s No. 1 fan? His wife, Jessica Biel, of course.
The “Mirrors” singer is gearing up to drop Everything I Thought It Was - his first new solo music since 2018 - and Biel is behind him 100 percent, a source exclusively tells PEOPLE in this week's issue.
Justin "just had this urge to create again. It was time. He’s been super into it, and Jess has been supportive,” the source tells PEOPLE of Timberlake, who turns 43 on Wednesday, and Biel, 41. "She's proud."

When you said “Honestly his most profitable move rn would be to pivot to right-wing grifting” nearly did a spit take, why does that seem so realistic
How? Justin is a life long Democrat and liberal. Campaigned for Kerry, Obama and Clinton.
$10 says he’s gonna do it
I’m shocked that he hasn’t done it yet.
no tf it wouldn't, y'all literally forget he has a strong core fanbase. full of a lot of black people, sine he literally made a full on successful RnB album like me. he been traveling with a completely black band on shows and tours for over a decade. his close friend is literally gay. whom he's been supportive of since they were teens. probablythe worst take throughout the whole video.
@yungaj6166 part of going right wing grifter is separating yourself from the old fans and friends. Doesn't matter who likes him now, racist boomers will still spend money if he goes right wing
Are you seriously telling me that a nipple on TV produced an 8-year investigation and a 550000$ bill? Wtf?
lol haven’t u heard about M.I.A. million dollar lawsuit simply for showing middle finger
Yep welcome to the early 2000s my friend.
@@ALIN-mb2gnWHAT
Yes because in 2004, we were at war on Iraq and this was a distraction.
You know what the real crazy thing is? She was wearing a pasty/shield that covered the actual nipple. This whole drama happened when there was no actual nudity. I can understand why it was traumatic for Janet, of course, but the rest of the world was very dumb about it.
I hate that Janet Jackson got punished for something HE DID & he got away unscathed
Seems to be a pattern with him, the woman always gets blamed
It was part of the routine, and practiced befor the show. But at the show, there was a "wardrobe malfunction".
it was HER idea and she changed the outfit last min, how is it his fault? You people are sheep lol
@@amerhst1201 did she pull the breast plate off or did he? Stop trying to be different so badly.
@@amerhst1201 It was her idea to publically flash herself and break TV broadcast rules?
The thing which really solified the multiple nails in the coffin for me, was after Britney released that statement about her book apologizing to him and praising his music, his response was to go on stage and say something akin to "first i gotta apologize... to absolutely f'n nobody" and Britney did a follow up post on her IG about what he did. He just had so many chances, so much grace given to him, yet he throws it back in people's faces, its screwed up and tbh are we missing anything by not listening to his new music?
Hey bryony! And I completely agree with your statement!
No. It sucks. Selfish has already flopped.
I was surprised Kayla didn’t mention this in her video.
Ever since Michael Jackson checked him for trying to outdo Michael at Michael's 40th anniversary he's been a dick
Also he literally took Jc Chasez singing style and his look
He really gives me the vibe of "but she is the one who cheated!". Yeah she is. Get over it privately and be professional publicly. The times really turned against him and I am glad
The reason Justin became the most popular member of NSync was bc of his relationship with Britney bc they became like the teen dream power couple and used their breakup to launch his solo career
lol that's not true, people liked him because he had talent and charisma. Second bes member of the group behind JC
@@giovanigeorgis3848it’s 100 percent true
No he was mainly seen as the most talented member of nsync since they began so yeah. That was why. I was a huge fan of both when I was younger of them but I didn’t even know until I was like an adult that he even dated Britney Spears. It wasn't put on blast as much as it would be today. Though imagine it helped don't get me wrong. Justin was also doing like side acting jobs where he would just have like smaller rolls in so he kind of established himself and those areas as well so he’s just had more exposure because of that as well.
@@ang3lica2kNo offense, but I call bs. #1. Everyone knew that he was dating Britney Spears. So if you were as big of a fan as you say that you were, you would have known that. I didn't even like Britney Spears back then, nor boy bands bands, and I even knew about them dating.
#2. You can definitely attribute his career taking off due to his breakup with Britney seeing that the VERY FIRST song/video released on his solo album was the song "Cry Me a River" and had a very obvious Britney Spears look alike in the video. He did the same thing with the next album with the song "What Goes Around" and again had a look alike Britney Spears being played by Scarlett Johansson. It wasn't until YEARS, probably like 10+ years later did he finally come out and say that the "What Goes Around" video wasn't about Britney Spears, but it was about a close friend of his, and their relationship/breakup. Saying that it was in fact Elisha Cuthbert that it was about, and not Britney. But the damage had already been done to Britney. She released the song "Everytime" as a sort of apology video to his and their relationship, when in reality, he should have been the one to apologize to her for cheating on her several times while they dated, encouraging her to get an abortion, and then breaking up with her because she kissed someone. Not even close to his indiscretions. Before you go and defend him, he's a serial cheater. He cheated on Cameron Diaz, and he cheated on his wife Jessica Biel with his co-star Alisha Wainwright and with Olivia Munn. Pictures are online and not hard to find, as well as the interview with Olivia talking about her affair with Justin and how he had led her on.
Also he relationship w the blk community he was able to play both lanes w his connection w Timbaland and Pharrell
Since you're so young, it might be hard to imagine how huge Janet was before 2004 and how this destroyed her career for decades (it's likely a factor in her hit single streak coming to an end and record sales stalling). I think her consistent tours have helped keep her career going but her recording career was severely impacted.
Rhythm Nation was one tape that I would borrow from my dad and play for hours while reading the lyrics in the liner notes ❤
Janet is a legend,this era doesn't have album like those artis did
He was jelous and wanted to hurt her
@@itsjotimeOf her career though you mean (right?)
Yes-Janet was and is still an icon. Not just as Michael’s little sister-she made her way all on her own making her solo debut in the 80’s.
As a 90s kid that lived the boy band craze era, what a time to be alive lol. Nipplegate in retrospective is so mild compared to what is shown on TV now. It’s sad Janet Jackson’s music career wasn’t the same afterwards.
it was mild compared to what was allowed on tv *then.* the backlash was pure misogynoir in the context of post-9/11 conservative "values" bullshit on a conservative-adjacent stage.
Yah was only 8 in the late 90s but still remember the height of Backstreet and NSync
Jackson already had been successful for almost 20 years. I think Nipplegate merely expedited the process of how much Jackson’s popularity was already waning. She was almost 40 by then and her act was getting tired both musically and image-wise.
@@RocStarr913 she definitely could’ve had several more hits and her music trajectory would’ve gone differently if she had still been an in demand pop star. We’ll never truly know how much she was impacted, but her 2004 album still sold almost 400K first week despite the Super Bowl, so she clearly still had some gas left in the tank.
@@foxesamu Damita Jo sucked though and 20 YO was hardly any better. The singles off both of those albums were hardly impressive and plus, she was getting older and younger performers got more attention with young people. “Just A Little While” alone sucked as a single, “I Want You” didn’t have the traditionally pop Janet sound, “All Nite” was just subpar and flat, “Call On Me” sounded too much like a Nelly song, and “So Excited” sounded awful riding the Herbie Hancock “Rockit” vinyl scratching sample. Her music was already becoming gimmicky for a while and diminishing returns were setting in a bit even before Nipplegate. The All For You singles mostly rode off of samples of old singles. Damita Jo only sold as much as it did because plenty of people already knew who Janet was and because the controversy did boost the amount of attention she had to a degree.
I never realized what a creep Justin is until I read Jessica Simpson's book. According to her, when they were auditioning for the Mickey Mouse show together, Justin made a bet with Ryan Gosling that he'd be the first one to kiss her. Years later, after her divorce from Nick, Justin was over at her house one night and they kissed. Justin immediately took out his phone to text Ryan that he won the bet. They were 12 when they made that bet so this was over a decade later. Justin was an immature player through and through.
And I hate it bc I was such a big fan of *NSYNC as a little girl (they were my first concert) why does JT have to be such a stinking jerk? 😭😭😭😭
JC is now my new fav from *NSYNC idk why but when I was little I thought Justin was to die for or something (lol) now all these years later I realize JC is not only better-looking but had the better voice too if Justin didn’t use Britney and their relationship he wouldn’t be that big JC deserved to be the breakout star of *NSYNC more than JT so I say #justiceforjcchasez 🫶🏻💕
@@abbiedhe stole JC Chasez's whole singing style and swag
JC Chasez's "Blowing me up with her love" came out a year prior and Justin took his singing style
You can hear it in "Dance for me"
@@thepubknight6144 I will go listen to both songs now, but is “Dance For Me” a JT song?
@@thepubknight6144 Yeah! JC released like one solo album (tbh not even completely sure if it ever got released or not I think it did though) but ofc bc Justin went with Britney (the star) he blew up 😭😭😭😭
His apologies never seemed genuine . Only apologized when his career was on the line.
There is a recent video clip from his first performance this year, I think in NYC, and he made a statement on stage saying, “I’d like to take the opportunity to apologize to absolutely f***ing NOBODY.” The way people in crowd CHEERED was absolutely astonishing.
This proves he was absolutely not f***ing remorseful for his actions.
A lot of people dont realise how huge Janet Jackson was at the time. I dont know if its because a lot of the yt youtubers who touch on this topic were to young at the time or dont really know Janets impact on music like that. The whole super bowl incident compleatly ruined her carrier and it was never really the same, even till this day you can tell. I would say within the black community she is still respected and revered, but I would say within the mainstream audience she kind of just dissapered. Good video, but a bit to kind at that part. Hes also had way more racist incidents in the past that was completly missed in this video.
Yeah I suspect most yt youtubers don't even bother to do research on how big Janet's career was before the incident - I bet most of them don't even try to listen to her acclaimed albums to see why she's the blueprint for so many pop artists today. Anyway, while this was a good video I feel like Kayla missed out some important details about Justin and instead presented a kinder perspective on what he's done. I think it's only the black youtubers who can truly call out Justin.
@@Missjunebugfreak very much agree!!
She wasn't that big internationally, while Justin was coming from N'sync
Maybe that's why it made such a difference and still does in the discourse
@@mariaviana8424that’s not true Janet did world tours. She was as big a Beyoncé is now and more mysterious. She had a family name and Jimmy Jam/Terry Lewis behind her. After the Super Bowl she retreated and that was a shame.
@@mariaviana8424 Uhhhh 👀 I grew up in new Zealand and Janet Jackson was huge like huge huge in terms of pop music. She actually has had sustained her career internationally more so then she did in America after that incident.
you’re far too kind re: Super Bowl performance. The day before he had bragged he was going to do something “really shocking” during the performance. It was even worse than that, but that’s the gyst of what I recall. Janet herself has spoken about how Justin was horrible to her after the incident.
When did Janet say that?
@@lonellfletcher it was an on-camera television interview she did, not sure when. But she was detailed.
Yeah I love this channel but there were a lot of critical details missed in this video! I get it she’s busy and also didn't live through a lot of it so may have just missed a lot of it
@@Orangesky3818 I really didn’t find it acceptable. I unfollowed her channel after commenting.
Janet said in 2022 that she and Justin are "good friends"
Fun Fact: Nipple Gate led to the creation of this very website
The way Janet Jackson was treated really pisses me off
The way he left her hanging is why I dislike him so much .....he wanted to sound black so bad but when it was time for him to stand by a sister he abandoned her ..and he brought sexy back to nowhere because Beyonce,.rhianna and jayz and drake and.the weeknd surpassed kkkulture vulture Justin timberland I mean lake sorry..
@@onedayatatime1494You couldn’t realistically expect Timberlake to stick out his neck that much for Jackson. He did his best at the time, but Jackson pretty much told him privately already not to worry about it. Jackson already was popular for almost 20 years and that was bound to fade eventually. Her music had become sample-laden and gimmicky and so did her sexual image. Pop music notoriously skews young and is fickle. Nipplegate didn’t make that much of an impact on Jackson’s career. She was already on the wane commercially.
@RocStarr913 no she wasn't , and her career shouldn't have been derailed like it was over something someone else did to her its not like she unzipp Justin timberland I mean lake ..and pulled out his thing he ripped her shirt and grabbed her , and he doesn't get in trouble at all ....there's something racist about this situation and it's so obvious and if u can't see it then u stupid...
Besides the Super Bowl, him bragging about taking Britney’s virginity when that was a huge part of her squeaky clean image (AND she wasn’t even a virgin at the time) was truly gross. 🤮
He was just doing what many male celebrities of the time were doing. This was the era of lad magazines like Maxim and Stuff and it was arguably a much more crudely macho climate in the celebrity and media culture.
@@RocStarr913 I was very much alive during that era and remember it.. I know how things were but is that an excuse that they were OK?
@@kylew9454 You can’t change the past. What is politically correct tomorrow wasn’t always politically correct yesterday. I’d rather judge Timberlake presently on his new music, which admittedly isn’t all that great now. Some of the songs on the new album either should have been tinkered with more lyrically or just never should’ve saw the light of day.
@@RocStarr913 ok where did I say that lol… my point was that some people knew it was wrong then too.
@@kylew9454 It’s was and is business. That’s what many people don’t understand.
Hiii "elder millennial" here who actually lived through Justin's career from N'sync onwards- I want to make a small correction and say that while Justin was popular during the 20/20 experience it absolutely paled in comparison to the cultural impact of future sex love sounds. That album was considered groundbreaking and had a lot of critical acclaim that legitimized Justin and had people comparing him to Michael Jackson and calling him the greatest artist of our time. 20/20 experience was just a cool album with a lot of hits but didn't have the impact FSLS did- the misperception might be due to recency bias but I had to stop the video and correct this misconception. Love your content!
This is exactly why i never get the hype around him. "Somewhat similar to michael jackson"? Gimme a break, that is so insulting
@@aeoligarlic4024Because he was young and made music that was popular. It’s not like he didn’t have hit singles. He met the musical moment.
Britney praised his new music and offered him an olive branch and he shaded her ago . And this was what .. 2-3 weeks ago. Then Britney posted on Instagram a cryptic post that basically said f you , I take it back. And something about “if there’s an issue let’s take it to the playground “ . So no, I wouldn’t say that him and Britney are on good terms .
That not only makes him a massive asshole, but also incredibly stupid. He should know the current zeitgeist has (fortunately) turned against him
He's not directly referred to her in any capacity in several years. The not apologizing thing was to her fans, who harass him for an apology he already made in 2021. He shouldn't have to keep seeking forgiveness just because people feel like it or because people are upset Britney's life is a mess and want to take it on someone who's doing well.
@@Delena00 People want to blame him for everything bad what happened to her after their split😏Broke ups are usally hard,lol.💔,but later she had even worse experiences, I think (such as divorce with her husband Kevin Federline, "postpartum" depression and being pernamently chasing by papparazzi📷📸) Then she lost custody of her kids👶🧒and they been took away from her. All of this, I think,finally leaded her to total "break down",when she shaved head👴and "landed" in hospital few times🏨. It happened in 2007,while she split with Justin in 2002. Why would she shave her head just 5 years after break up,lol.🤔😉No,there were another reasons (which I mentioned above😏)

i don’t know this man but he just seems so fake to me. using black artists and producers to make your music good and then completely turning your back on janet as the media was slaughtering her is gross. also letting your ex gf get slut shamed repeatedly just to promote your own album is double gross.
Yeah I feel so bad for his wife (even though she married him) I think he abuses her too (like he did Brit) and I hope she will divorce him and ask for not only alimony but child support (because who keeps performing a song about a dead/aborted child after it was revealed that the song was about a dead/aborted child?) 😭😭😭😭
He seems gross to me like I was a huge *NSYNC fan as a little girl (they were my first concert) but now seeing how gross he is it’s just disappointing (JT used to be my fav from *NSYNC but now I like JC better #justiceforjcchasez) 👌🏻💕
"Dance for me " was written for Michael Jackson he turned it down
And he damn well knew that , it's why he sang it with Janet
We all owe Britney and Janet an apology for how we all trashed them and propped up Justin
he's gross all around
Cap
I think it's important to mention that Britney took back her apology to him after a video went viral of him performing in a show and saying that he apologized to "absolutely f*cking nobody". I was a huge JT fan until he said that. I could understand that he made mistakes while he was young and while he hurt Britney, I don't think that was his intention, I thought he learned and he was truly apologetic, especially after the Free Britney movement and I thought his apology was heartful but now, I just think he's full of sh*t. He's acting like a child that is upset because people aren't accepting his apology and moving on so now is like "F*ck you, I'm not sorry after all". What a man-child!
for him its all about publicity hes a total jerk
@@christyamarso is shitney
@@christyamarshitney can’t even sing
That viral video recontextualizes everything. It makes it seem that he knew Britney was gonna put all the bullshit he's done in her book, and that his publicist was like "hey, apologize, get on top of it" and he released his apology in the hopes that Britney would redact that part of the book. And then she didn't, so he got butthurt.
@@jordynsutton6074It's not about singing ability, it's about grace and courtesy - which the SNL remark shows he is lacking - especially given she apologised to him, for simply recounting his own conduct!
You should really look into how Justin Timberlake prevented the career of his other band mates, specifically JC Chasez. Would be an interesting deepdive!
jc's lack of solo success doesn't have shit to do with justin. jc's solo album was intended to be a side project, not necessarily made for mainstream success. that aside, the record label still messed up his album rollout and they are the sole reason for him not having more attention (delays, lack of budget, poor single choices and promotion).
justin even wrote a song with jc intended to be the first single for his unreleased second album called "until yesterday" and invited jc to perform it at his own concert in 2006. justin's known jc for 30 years and respects him greatly. he will be the first to tell you jc's a better singer than him!
@@kamfrusciante Thank you for saying this! People are really acting as if Justin maliciously blocked the other guys careers, when that is far from the truth. The guys have no ill will towards each other, and as you said they even collaborated together. If these people really cared about JC they would support his projects, but they don’t and they only ever use him as a crutch to hate on Justin.
@@kamfrusciante but they purposely didn’t promote JC’s album as to not detract from Justin’s? and when nipple gate happened broadcasters refused to have JC on their shows because of his relation with Justin? And how all the other members of NYSNC thought they would return after the break and Justin prevented them from doing so? He played a bigger role then you let on.
@@talia-rosediorio that's how most labels work. justin was a cash cow for jive at the time, of course they would put more backing towards him over jc. it's a shitty practice, but it's not justin's fault his music was gaining traction. also, the first single from schizophrenic was released months after justin's last single from justified. their album rollouts had no overlap, jive just wasn't confident in jc's project and that's sad, but again, not justin's fault.
regarding jc's pro bowl performance getting cancelled, if it was any artist who was gonna perform songs as risqué as 'some girls dance with women,' or 'blowin me up (with her love),' they most likely would've been axed as well because of the nfl wanting to keep a clean image following the super bowl incident. jc's association with justin was merely a coincidence. they literally offered him to do the national anthem instead, but he refused.
justin and their manager johnny wright definitely should've told the rest of the band that he wasn't going to return sooner, that i agree on, but i think that was more out of cowardice than malice. i do think there was a plan for justin to return to *nsync, and he repeated as such in promotion for his solo album. however, the response to justified was way too big for justin to go regress in a fading niche (boy bands) instead of moving forward in his solo endeavors.
@@talia-rosediorioand guess what JC literally said on LIVE television Justin called as soon as he heard the news, and apologized to him saying that he had no idea that it would affect JC in anyway. him and JC are literally the closet out if the guys but y'all insist on creating a rivalry.
As a Black woman, I think I can weigh in with my opinion, And his appropriation and "blackccent" (mocking AAVE) and treatment of Black women are unforgivable. It could be argued "It happens all the time!" but that doesn't make it okay in the slightest. He's wrong for that and his apology doesn't seem genuine. Maybe he felt tired of being called out for it and tried to sell a fake apology. He's a white man in a position of power and as usual and unfortunately, his appropriation doesn't surprise me.
ALL OF THIS 💯
Amen! As a black woman, I second your sentiments. I remember how he was so cringe in the 90's, pretending he was so hood and "down." I never fell for his act.
@@kiag.8484as i wasn’t even born yet so I missed this. I’ve only seen him in hip hop outfits

I'm going to be honest, I forgot this dude even existed until this video.
Lmfao😅
As we all should 🤣
I need to be honest idk who this man is. He could be walking down the street, I wouldn’t know him. Sorry to this man. 😅
Slay bestie 👌🏻😂
I’m Britney Army so I don’t like Justin Timbersnake (erm I mean Justin Timberlake) very much he always has to bring Britney to everything and I even saw an article that he’s gonna maybe do a tell-all interview about Britney with Oprah and if he takes Oprah up on it I will hate him forever 🙂
He also talked poorly of Prince, only to do his in memoriam at the Super Bowl 🤦🏽
Seeing him sing his song "Feel for you" when he was on "Star search" still pisses me off
That diss song pisses me off. Timberland should be ashamed, too. I'm not even a big Prince fan, but the dude was a creative genius, a all around good guy, and they were nowhere near his level. As the meme goes, "the audacity"
The CAUCASITY!! He had the caucasity to do a hologram of Prince too after Prince specifically made it clear he didn't want that. It was so disrespectful of JT
@@rahbeeuh What hologram??? It was a projection, so it was allowed and not against Prince's wishes.
@@giovanigeorgis3848 same difference. Prince didn't want it and he wasn't even cool with JT anyway so it was just in poor taste.

What a twist
Oh good lord I forgot he went into acting for a while 😂😂
5:44 wasn’t this the reason RUclips was created or something?? Ugh I remember that moment so much..poor Janet..
I always thought JC is the one who should've had the hugely successful solo career. He's a much better singer and he seems like a good guy.
I agree so much!
and more handsome too!
FRRR
Y'all...what if Lance was the breakout star of NSYNC? Could y'all imagine? 😅
JC started well, but he lost momentum
He had all the talent to go to the top
It’s not just that Justin didn’t support Janet. It’s that he went on various tv shows, interviews etc joking about it. He kept it alive
She was the first to joke about it herself on SNL.
What did you expect Timberlake to do? Boycott the whole entertainment industry? He had his own livelihood to think about. Janet made poor choices. She could have just apologized to Les Moonves and she chose to have an ego about it. It also didn’t help that Janet did privately tell Timberlake that he shouldn’t worry about Nipplegate. She basically let him off the hook long ago.
I would love Janet Jackson to make a comeback! I know she's doing a tour now but I would love to see new music from her if she wanted to. My primary issue with the narrative that Nipplegate was planned is that if you rewatch the clip you can very clearly see her surprised that her breast was exposed and quickly moved to cover up. Also she looked to be wearing a pasty which would make sense if the original idea was to just rip off the black part of the costume to reveal the bra. Justin Timberlake literally could have said anything other than "we're glad to give you guys something to talk about" because that's such a gross statement considering she was basically forced to go on a media campaign to apologize as if JT was never involved. She legitimately slayed the Super Bowl with All for You and Rhythm Nation way before Justin in his average joe clothes showed up. A selfish part of me would love to see Janet do the halftime show again but I understand if she didn’t want to after how she was treated. I've seen clips of her performing recently and she's still got it!
I’d like to see Nelly Furtado make a comeback, at least as a guest-feature possibly on a Dua Lipa song.
She has new music in the works!
18:45 uhm you missed an update! He started singing “I’m not sorry” at a *free* concert he had in NYC.
I'm pretty sure after that Britney took her apology down and posted something about how he cried like a lil baby to his mom when she beat him at basketball.
@@LadyKittybug Actually, she took the apology down before he said he wasn't sorry. Very common misconception that pisses me off about this whole situation. That could've also possibly made him butthurt.
A free concert that i still don't want to attend 😂
TEAM JANET FOREVER!!! I cancelled him the moment I saw him crying and throwing Janet under the bus on MTV with his grandmother like a little b-
first, ew. Secondly, that never happened.
Always team janet for me. That guy always gave me weird vibes from the start, and his defenders are weird af
@@aeoligarlic4024it’s not like Timberlake wasn’t hugely popular for a time.
Great video. One thing though. You were right about Timbaland giving him musical credibility, but he also got a ton of that from working with Pharrell Williams/The Neptunes around the same time.
Love the channel! Slight correction: Pharrell and Chad Hugo (the Neptunes) were also main producers on ‘Justified’ and they produced a couple hit tracks on *NSYNC’s ‘Celebrity’ album
I’m 35, so of course Nsync, BSB, Britney and Cristina Aguilera were my life back then. They all defined my teenage years and my taste in music. I loved Justin so much, but as i got older i started to see all of those things you explained. He is very talented but his career was made because of what happened with Britney and I can’t unsee it now.
She had an affair with his best friend. If he blows up because of a song he wrote about it--which artists tend to do--then what's the issue?
I was the same like you. Even like CMAR when it first came out even though of the content of and how he portrayed her look-alike. Although I still like her as well.
I think what make that song and video worse is that he a serial cheater throughout his relationship with Britney and yet it seems his ego couldn't handle her doing to him what he done to her. I can only guess that Britney not personally knowing or being close to his numerous hook-ups compare to him having a close bond and friendship with the guy was something he didn't like.
And yet even with that happening, his form on being monogamous didn't change when you consider it a written cause in a contract with his wife.
Sadly it only acknowledge by some about Britney's indiscretions and JT can do no wrong in that department when it has been talk about and shown that's he's not a faithful guy!!
Out of all the guys,Justin lost the softness in his eyes. He has that mean look. But I really hope N’Sync does a reunion tour. We need this!🙏🏽
He and them likely are not interested in doing a reunion tour unless there is sufficient interest in them making new music, which there doesn’t seem to be at this point.
shout out to britney for giving us “fo shizz fo shizz”
lol even Britney as a white woman knew damn well what Justin was doing and got the icks 😂
both of yall, Ginuwine said it never happened -_- she lied
Nobody really cares. That was a long time ago and it has no bearing on why Timberlake’s current music isn’t hitting now the way it did years ago.
It's been so weird watching this story develop in real time, one month he deeply apologizes to Britney, then the next one i guess he saw the memes of the Michelle Williams audiobook, the cringey rap he did when he was younger (and some stiff dance more recently), got angry and he says he takes it back, then he tell her to flip herself in some elderly concert with 50 people in attendance, he was obviously never that good of a guy
lol elderly concert. The “apology” was in 2021 when everyone was apologizing to Britney through PR statements. He never apologized for pressuring her to abort their child or for saying “yo yo yo fo shiz fo shiz” 😂
@@redvelvetgirl How can you "abort" a child that never existed lol. It's been speculated it was with someone else.
@@Delena00 or maybe all this "story" with abortion is fake and has been "created" to boost the selling of the book?🤔📚💰
@@Delena00 it existed, but ofc you are all team justin
@@aeoligarlic4024 And what proof do we have, other than Britney said so? I wouldn’t exactly call her a reliable narrator.
Timberland and the Neptunes carried his career
Apparently the Neptunes songs in particular were meant for Micheal Jackson. "Rock Your Body" could've been a huge hit for MJ compared to the ok "You Rock My World"
@@vinnym5607 yeah, I can't imagine MJ doing that song.
Braindead take. They produced plenty of people no one came close to him lol
It’s not like Pharrell and Timbaland wasn’t still doing music with Timberlake for the Man Of The Woods album.
"I really do feel we are all one ... One human race" DEEP. Also, Nelly Furtado ... I love her.
Man, as a black girl, Justin Timberlake is just pathetic💀
Also, YES!!!!!! Nelly Furtado!!! I love her too. ❤ Nice knowing there’s other people who adore her music like I do as I felt shitty earlier. I’ve been struggling to properly listen to Give It To Me and the entirety of Loose even because of Timbaland and JT’s bad attitude, but now I’m learning to separate the artist from the artist from the artist from the art. I own the Album Whoa, Nelly as a gift from my mom for my 16th birthday to show how much her music meant to her and it will forever hold a special place in my heart.
“you clearly dont understand what a pop icon is. Like beyonce she was on the top of the game in the 90s 00s and now she topping spotify in 2024. Her name is biggee than her hits. Many dont even know who nelly is”~Just got replied with this in another video. When I humbled them with the amount of listeners Nelly had on Spotify, they got quiet and deleted my comment.
I won the argument ✨
Never thought I would get in an argument with a Beyoncé Stan and win one, but….yeah!
@@jasminealce834 I feel you. I also feel weird enjoying her Timbaland era but that album is fantastic. Also she had already done so much before Loose. Whoa, Nelly! is wonderful but even Folklore was great and so underrated. I think she is truly original; she mixes so many different genres and has such a unique voice.
@@jasminealce834 dude, who doesn’t know who Nelly is? 😂 that’s such a weak argument lol
@@ieatgremlins Exactly. And who TF would compare Beyoncé to Furtado??? They have completely different careers. Besides, it’s actually an advantage if Furtado has less steamers than Beyonce because that means less slander, and less “overrated” comments.
Honestly JC was the best of N*Sync
I still can’t get over the mistreatment Janet got. ITS JANET….
Janet was not that great, especially by the point of Nipplegate. You can’t be that popular forever.
@@RocStarr913 me when I lie
Are celebrity public apologies enough? Not for any one of us to say. In cases like Justin's, it's on Janet and Britney to say if his apology was enough.
Who deserves a shining comeback? Janet, full stop.
Justin never let an SNL go by without a sexual dig at Britney..even a decade plus later..so bizarre.
You also forgot that after she plugged his song and apologized if it hurt anyone… he proceeded to do his free concert the next day and preludes “cry me a river” with “I’d like to take a moment to apologize… to absolutely FU@KING NOBODY” and that’s why he continues to suck
What’s funny is, Justin has done virtually everything possible to avoid confronting his past actions. Using both Britney and Janet’s controversies to elevate himself. He consistently downplayed his role in *NSYNC while the Backstreet Boys did the near opposite and tried to stay together or supportive of each other. Justin realized probably in the late 2008s that if he kept acting like a fusion of Michael Jackson and Nelly, he would become a product of time. This is why between 2007-2016 he embarked on a decade long endeavor to appear in movies just as much as he put out music. He infiltrated children’s shows and cartoons. He was in romantic comedies and action thrillers. Anything to stay relevant.
But then came Man of the Woods in 2018. And *everyone woke the hell up* to Justin’s real level of atmosphere. Which was piss poor R&B on post Kanye West life support. Pair that with a marketing campaign that tired to actually sell fans *boots* and flannels. Like Justin had dug up the Lumbersexual fad from 2013/2014/2015 and put old Dad paint over it.
Now we are here in 2024. Justin’s past actions combined with his efforts to avoid them have made him a product of time. He’s not seen as talented anymore. He’s seen a man who used Timbaland, cultures, and two women to blast a solo career upwards.
You might want to reword that. Justin is still considered an R&B legend and the prince of pop. Legendary albums with great songs, but people saw that he was just not really a good person. And MOTW failed because it was something new and different unlike his previous albums, so people hated it.
Timberlake’s real mistake with the Man Of The Woods album is that it was basically the same old music using a country gimmick that didn’t really stand up. It’s clear he became more focused on marketing himself rather than making interesting music. It also didn’t help that he was still working with producers he worked before like Timbaland and Pharrell.
I WANT BRITNEY TO DO A JAWDROPPING SUPERBOWL!!! We need Bruno back too.
me too but I don’t think it’s gonna happen 😢 maybe Bruno tho
she has said that she’s not returning to music though. I can’t blame her. she wouldn’t have gone through all this trauma had she not had a music career
It's not gonna happen sadly, she has mentioned several times that she isn't interested in making a comeback.
I haven’t watched the video yet (just started), and for now i have to say that i am OBSESSED with Kayla’s little bread toast lamp in the background, the little face is sooooo cute
comeback kid: Amanda Bynes!!! And Lindsay too I guess, but she's slowwly creeping her way back into at least movies.
Funnily enough his shift from being a reference in Shrek 2 to a mostly forgettable and unlikable role in Shrek the Third was a pretty prescient forecast of the trajectory of his career.
Yet his latest tour, after six years of no new music, has sold out concerts. Try again.
I’ve never been a Timberfake fan. I always thought JC was the way better looking and way more talented one.
He wasn’t supposed to remove the bra. They had scrapped the bit
Ok, but didn’t she also have pasties on underneath it? (Not defending JT here though just to be clear js)
@@abbiedJannet said that is was the clothing teams fault not JT, she was supposed to be wearing scandalous sexy clothing underneath.
@@yungaj6166 I thought they were just like pasties (underneath her brassiere) and JT accidentally ripped the whole thing off (the outfit just must’ve been made poorly tbh) ://
@@abbiedI though the red but was the reveal and he was only supposed to pull the black part
@@shanel4294I think that was the plan but as we know it didn't go as planned
14:13 - he only did this because the movie he was starring in called "Palmer" was right around the corner of being released - just like that time he "apologised" on MTV right before FSLS was about to drop, because he needed to win back the black audience he'd deservingly lost - everything with him has always come across as strategic.
He never lost any audience.
Music is a business.
Jt had a ruthless momager who was planning his solo career since NSYNC made it . He rode off the coat tails of Britney and made a career out of doing this to a lot of ppl. Now, he thinks Oprah's coach will save him
He didn't need to use Britney to have a solo career. He was literally in *NSYNC.
@Delena00 all of those men were more talented enough to have a decent solo career the difference was the drive and cultural relevance they had and JT used his relationship with Britney because of how famous she was at the time. With how the entertainment industry is with women, the man who put them down always would come out on top. With all the bios I have scene about JT, his mother is absolutely crucial about how he used and abused all the people and women in his life to get to where he needs to. His mother was always a factor in that which why his fall was a long time coming.
@@Glitteringmoonstone2022 And she opened up for *NSYNC to kickstart her career. Your argument doesn’t hold.
@@Glitteringmoonstone2022 Chris, Lance, and Joey could NEVER own a solo career like JC and JT did
You could have mentioned Justin in Shrek 3
How Did I Forget JT Was On Shrek 3😭😭😭😭
He also voiced Boo Boo in Yogi Bear 2010. Tbf he did a good job there
I think that Justin was so good in "Social Network" because he played character very similar to his own: he would do whatever it takes to win and he doesn't look back at the other people, like it was with Janet and Britney. Such a bad person, can;t believe I liked him once.
Even his last song title is 🌟"Selfish"🌟,lol.
He didn’t commit any crimes, unless you count trying to being a successful male in show business one.
I'd say the last piece of the puzzle for why people don't like Timberlake anymore is his 2018 album Man of the Woods.
We've seen time and time again that artist's can survive PR disasters if the music is good. If he had gone through the FreeBritney reckoning/Britney Spears biography after an album at the caliber of Future Sex Love or The 20/20 Experience he could have maybe survived. But Man of the Woods was such an underbaked concept that everyone rejected immediately and is probably the start to when people found him cringy. It put him in a losing position.
This album was in "country" style little bit💿🎸,which is not so popular kind of music🎶 (like pop music or R`n`b 🎶🎛). I only recognize (and like😉) song "Say Something" from that album😉
It was because he became more focused on marketing than his actual music. He was working with the same people, Pharrell and Timbaland, doing Man Of The Woods and he suffered a diminishing of returns as a result. It’s clear that he lost real inspiration lyrically. He was already married with a child, so where would he go with lyrics?
I don't believe that any of his apologies were honest. It was probably written by a PR team just to cool things off while he was being canceled online. The fact that he recently said in a concert "I would like to apologise to f*king nobody" proves it. Besides, wasn't he also canceled because he had an affair and chetead on his wife???
This came out the second I finished my yoga. It’s like you’re a psychic in a very narrow field.
Did you have to go back to yoga afterwards?
Janet should make a comeback! She deserves love after what he put her through.
Unrelated to the case, but fitting to the question at the end, I'd love to see Anastacia make a comeback. Technically she's super active, just really not known in the USA anymore, despite being an american singer and huge 2000s hit. Rest of the world loves her but her management messed up things.
She’s too old to make a comeback now. She was already getting too old for pop music by the time Nipplegate happened.
For your last question, I would absolutely love for JoJo to make a comeback. She wrote SO MUCH music, all different genres, and none of it ever saw the light of day. Her story breaks my heart. It’s a great video topic if you haven’t done Jojo already
She’s already released lots of music since then. If she really was as great as people think she was, she would have had a hit again by now. Her record label screwed her.
My only Justin Timberlake story is the stupid 20/20 experience album came out the day i went to a new hair dresser and got my emo skunk hair. The hair dresser asked if I liked JT and I only knew sexy back and *NSYNC stuff so I said “he’s okay I guess” and she went on the play that album on repeat the entire appointment… I freaking hate that album from that experience only! 😂
😂😂😂 that makes two of us. Hate it all the more now 🤣🤣
Actualy "Mirror"🪞was the biggest hit from that album💽👌
Ah well… if it isn’t the consequences of his own actions
As a 90's kid, you have no idea how long I've waited for this episode
Honestly, I would love if Ryan Ross would make a comeback. He is a very talented singer/songwriter and it would just be nice to hear more music from him.
Your youngness is showing so as an old lady 34 yr old it’s hard to listen to someone describe boy bands who has no idea what it was like at the time…
She also didn't address how Janet was incredibly popular and beloved before Superbowl.
Thank you for a mentioning Timberlands work with justin. It's honestly the only reason I listened to Justin's music. To me JC Chasez had a better voice and was much more attractive.
People are tried of culture vultures. He’s a huge one. When people sense darkness, they don’t fuck with you.
Britney, Justin and them all sang black music as kids weekly on the Mickey Mouse Club, because that was the music of the time. Are they culture vultures too?
Also Justin allegedly cheated on his wife 4 years ago and there were pictures every of him holding hands with her. I think he even publicly apologized for having an inappropriate moment with someone but I can’t remember if he fully admitted to cheating.
YESS ive been waiting for this one fr.
I love this series. I appreciate all the work you put into it and I look forward to viewing each month!
I will always hear, “Oh yeah. Fo shiz go shiz.” every time I see this dude from now on ngl.
You know Ginuwine said that never happened right?
@@giovanigeorgis3848 Doesn’t matter at this point. Still hilarious.
They never decided to break up. While on break unfortunately while JT was planning his exit the rest of the guys turned down gigs because they were under the impression they were going back to the studio. They were blindsided. He then dhit talked saying the guys werent as passionate as him. With JC, the true vocal talent of NSYNC as lead, NSYNC could have continued as 4 some. Thats I truly believe
The reason why his acting in The Social Network was so good was because he wasn't acting...
Also, he is *allegedly* a serial cheater to this day. Ironic how one of his most popular songs is about how hurt he was by infidelity.
Ahh method acting 😂
It isn't alleged if it is the truth🤷
I never liked him even before I knew all the crap he did as an adult he gives me huge Mr sho form glee vibes 🤢
They aren't the same person 😮
@@AirQuotes lmao I used to think they were the same person too
Yeees! Finally it wasn't just me that feels that something is off with this guy
@@spacebar9733 true, they are both try hards who think they can rap 😂
Kayla you always miss Info on these especially when it deals to recent events . He literally shaded her again after she offered an olive branch by dancing to his song & giving a compliment. L
I would like to see Mandy Moore make a comeback in music
JT is disgusting, how he played himself as a morality saint is hilarious
it goes deeper than the lies shown in this video...
My teen self never really liked N'Sync, me and the girls were addicted to the Backstreet Boys 💞
So you're addicted to a band with a r*pist and you dislike a band of cheaters? Lmfao.
With the Janet issue it's not that he didn't defend her, he distanced himself and said things that implied it was bc of her. His wording and vibe was more "it wasn't me". Coupled with his trying feign disgust just made it seem like he threw her under the bus. It's not like he was just quiet and didn't come to her aid.
It's so weird that she suffered all the consequences of what HE did and we all saw him do it but she gets the blame, that was the worst part..I don't know why they even agreed to do such a risky thing during the superbowl , I wonder who came up with such a terrible idea at the worst time to do such a terrible idea during the SUPERBOWL..
I really want Britney to make a comeback especially after how he treated her just to humble him.
JC needs to use this opportunity to put out a second album
He clearly doesn’t want to.
Timbersnake Timberfake Timberflake you know 😂
But Shitney Spears outdoes them all! 🤣🤣
@@giovanigeorgis3848 You mad?
@@giovanigeorgis3848 She’s the princess of pop keep crying
Ugh and to think Jessica is still willingly married to him. Shows a lot about HER too.
On SexyBack, a non-zero percentage of people didn't even think of Justin when listening to SexyBack or what he was saying about himself we were using it for AMVs about our favorite anime guys. Back in the halcyon days of just throwing copyrighted footage and music on youtube to watch with no ads.
Petition to give the rights to his new single over to Mariah Carey
I think nipplegate gets a lot of attention without the context. At that time, a lot of raunchy performances were happening before the Super bowl with more and more negative reactions. When this moment finally happened it opened up the flood gates.
Regardless it was unfair how they treated Janet and honestly the entertainment industry owe her the biggest apology ever.
The difference between an apology and accountability is that accountability comes with a change in behavior. We are supposed to learn from our past mistakes. His "apology" was a statement. There was never any accountability in any of it he said.
THANK YOU for talking about Timbaland and how his work is what drove the success of those albums. No one was doing what Timbaland was, is or ever will, and when most people talk about JT and his success with those albums, Timbaland is rarely mentioned. So thank you. You rule
His mentor Devante Swing from Jodeci never gets mentioned whenever people bring up Timbaland and Missy Elliott.
uhh, he's always mentioned wdym lol
In that Twitter Incident with the reporter, I found it so funny that Justin got so upset about someone calling him out for his privilege that he wrote a song about it called "Say Something" in which he sings the lyrics "everybody says say something...but I don't want to get caught up in the middle of it," and also "sometimes the greatest way to say something is to say nothing at all". The song is framed like this "inspiring" internal struggle of a tortured artist when it's actually just the anthem of privileged babies who can't stand when the world isn't revolving around them.
I used to be a big fan but that song was the first time I realized just how warped his perception of the world must be.
I thought it was generally agreed that the halftime show thing was planned, but the reaction was insane.
The next artist you could do video is Katy Perry or Justin Bieber
nope it should Meghan Trainor - after her podcast in which she said "F**K Teachers!" and her pathetic attempt at an apology afterwards, she is never going to be taken seriously....then again, was she ever?
Todd In The Shadows made a good video about Katy's downfall
You better believe I did all the choreo to that snippet of Bye Bye Bye. What can I say, I'm an Nsync gal.
Hope JC gets a comeback. As long as he gets good producers. I think people will favor him more than JT since people pissed at him more now. He's the better singer and better looking too.
I feel like while I appreciate the fast output of your videos, Kayla GIRL you always miss out on the important details
Don't tell Kayla but I had "Rock Your Body" on repeat all of last week 🤫
I want to see Robbie Turner make the come back we didn’t know we needed
I used to be a huge fan of JT.. and for awhile, you could possibly excuse his actions as being young, immature, and inexperienced. But, there's a point where you gotta grow up, and the man has yet to reach that point of genuine accountability. He's honestly too set in life at this point to even care.
Even setting rumors, theories about controversies, and emotional personal testaments from victims aside, there is still too much evidence that points to the fact that defending JT is not Justified
I would love to see like a top 10 albums ranking from you
