In the wake of a recent uproar caused by his comments, rapper and producer Timbaland has come forward with an apology regarding his statement about Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears. The controversy began when Timbaland suggested that Timberlake should have “put a muzzle” on Spears during an interview.

The controversy unfolded after the release of Britney Spears’ memoir, “The Woman in Me,” where she revealed several intimate details about her three-year relationship with Justin Timberlake. Among the revelations was her claim that Timberlake had urged her to have an abortion when she became pregnant.

During an interview at the Kennedy Center, Timbaland was caught on camera making a statement about Britney Spears. “She going crazy, right?” he told a reporter, as per footage obtained by Pop Base. “I wanted to call and say, ‘JT you’ve got to put a muzzle on that girl, man.'”

This statement sparked outrage among fans and the public, as it was seen as insensitive and inappropriate. Timbaland’s comments were met with criticism, particularly in light of the ongoing conversation surrounding Britney Spears and her conservatorship.
