Justin says ‘no disrespect’
It all began with Justin Timberlake, alluding to Britney Spears, as he took the stage to perform at the opening of the new Fontainebleau Hotel in Sin City. Before singing Cry Me a River, he paused to address the audience and said, “no disrespect.” Now, Britney has responded to Justin's remark through her latest Instagram post, where she took a dig at him for crying when she beat him at basketball.

{{/usCountry}}Earlier, in her memoir The Woman in Me, Britney had noted how after their separation, Justin Timberlake’s Cry Me a River made her to look like a “harlot who’d broken the heart of America’s golden boy.” She further added, “I felt there was no way at the time to tell my side of the story. I couldn’t explain, because I knew no one would take my side once Justin had convinced the world of his version.”
Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake started dating in late 1998. They made their public debut as a couple at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. They broke up in March 2002.
