Megan Thee Stallion and Justin Timberlake allegedly fight backstage
At the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards, a backstage viral video initially sparked rumors of a heated exchange between Megan Thee Stallion, the 28-year-old rapper, and Justin Timberlake, the 42-year-old “Mirrors” singer. However, the actual interaction was far from confrontational. In the video, Megan was having her hair touched up when Timberlake and his *NSYNC bandmates walked by. Megan waved enthusiastically at Timberlake, who smiled as he passed by. *NSYNC member Joey Fatone could be seen laughing along.
According to insiders, Megan was expressing her desire to hang out with Timberlake in a less chaotic environment. Timberlake responded with a polite, “It’s so nice to meet you,” to which Megan replied, “No, no, this don’t count. We gotta meet proper.” A second source close to the situation emphasized that there was no tension between the two, revealing that Megan is a fan of Justin Timberlake and was excited about their first encounter. Contrary to initial rumors, it was a friendly and cordial exchange between the two artists at the VMA’s 2023 backstage.
