Janet Jackson has strongly criticized Justin Timberlake, accusing him of appropriating black culture and contributing to the damaging of Britney Spears' career.
In a recent interview, Jackson expressed her disapproval of Timberlake's actions, alleging that he had stolen elements of black culture throughout his career. She emphasized the significance and value of African American contributions to many art forms and genres, insisting that Timberlake had appropriated these without due credit or acknowledgment.
Moreover, Jackson pointed out the negative impact Timberlake had on Britney Spears' career. Referring to the infamous 2004 Super Bowl halftime performance incident, Jackson criticized Timberlake for abandoning her and leaving her to face the brunt of the media backlash alone. She argued that this incident had severely damaged Spears' reputation and career, while Timberlake escaped largely unscathed.
The 2004 incident occurred during the performance of Timberlake and Jackson's collaborative song, "Rock Your Body," when Timberlake accidentally exposed Jackson's breast on live television.
Jackson's career suffered significant consequences as she faced accusations and criticism, including being blacklisted from the Grammy Awards.
