Britney Spears is changing her tune on Justin Timberlake — ’cause she just fired off a full-blown mea culpa to the guy … and even acknowledged she’s digging his new tunes.The pop star did an about-face on her IG account, posting a screenshot of JT with Jimmy Fallon during his ‘Tonight Show’ performance from last week — where they were singing one of his new songs from his latest album — and singing his praises.
Before she got to the compliments, though, she said sorry in no uncertain terms — writing, “I wanna apologize for some of the things I wrote about in my book. If I offended any of the people I genuinely care about I am deeply sorry.”BS then hyped up his new singles, adding … “I also wanted to say I am in love with Justin Timberlake’s new song ‘Selfish.’ It is soo good and how come every time I see Justin and Jimmy together I laugh so hard???” She also shouted out his other songs, ‘Sanctified.’
Like we said, it’s definitely a sea change from how she spoke about her ex in her memoir, “The Woman In Me,” from last fall — where she said she’d gotten pregnant with him … but then suggested she got an abortion at his behest, among other allegations against JT.Britney’s fan base has had their knives out for Justin in the wake of all that — even going so far as to troll his new music by making one of her old songs chart above his on iTunes.
Now, however, Britney is speaking for herself … and it sounds like she’s got regrets — and maybe some love remaining for her former boyfriend. It certainly sounds like an olive branch.
