The thread title should be "Just in: Timberlake sucks!"

I think this is a more important topic than Justin Timberlake imo.

you've no call to get snippy with me, sir, I'm only taking you at your word :colbert:

you said that this information coming out about him vindicated your existing feelings. nobody could be blamed for interpreting that as being your stake in this, that's the plain meaning of the words you started this thread with

if you meant something else you should have said something else.
because now it just looks like you're trying to reframe your position into something more defensible, possibly because it was embarrassing for you that it turned out nobody else was plugged into the weird celebrity gossip tabloid bullshit that you were taking as assumed knowledge when you started this thread, which you titled "justin timberlake sucks", which, I'm not saying that's the case, but I think we both can agree that would be really unconvincing and pathetic if that were the case

I started with taking a victory lap over JT getting cancelled because I didn’t like him to begin with, both because of his music and his behavior towards women (this part being implied by the bit at the end of the OP about Janet). The conversation evolved over the course of the thread and his mistreatment of Britney became the main subject, a rhetorical shift which had already occurred before you made the post I gave an admittedly very bitchy response to. The change in direction of my posting is not evidence of intellectual dishonesty as you claim, it’s just what happens when you have an asymmetrical conversation involving multiple people and a subject that warrants multiple avenues of discussion.

What did Justin do to Janet op? I thought they got those huge nipple piercings/hardware together to celebrate football?

He pulled her boob out at the Super Bowl (a move they had rehearsed using nipple shields but had decided to cut it to avoid the exact thing that happened) and then stood by while she got burned at the stake. AFAIK he’s never apologized to her or accepted responsibility, and her career never recovered from it while his did.

What started the current wave of negativity towards JT was zoomers finding out about this and wanting to know why the making GBS threads gently caress did the nation watch a woman be violated on TV and decide that it was her fault and not the guy who did the violating.

Wasn’t she wearing a “nipple shield”? Why was she wearing tear away clothing? This is all very perplexing.

Are you trying to say that JT and Britney lack... what, creative talent? They are both performers. At their peak, they were top tier dancers and singers.

You saying this makes me want to mention that Rolling Stones concert again. Watching it I don't think JT was anything remarkable, but I've got this real feeling like they didn't rehearse it a lot beforehand and Justin is (more or less) successfully able to read enough of Mick's behavior at the moment.

The way he's looking at Mick all through the performance makes me feel like JT was constantly looking and hoping for cues from Mick for how to move, when to sing, etc. that were never really being given.

in the longterm scheme of things, rhythm nation 1814 will be remembered by history as one of the most albums of its period, and most of jt's poo poo will be forgotten*

I have a really hard time believing the fallout would have been the same if she was a white singer.

I watched it happen and felt like I wasn’t seeing the same thing as everyone else. People had their tits half out for awards shows and halftime events for awhile by then and most of her boob was covered up by that nipple shield thing. It wasn’t sexy it was just weird.

Justin sewed the tear-away garment, and then applied the nipple shield while she was asleep!!!
