Justin Timberlake is reportedly thinking about doing a tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey following his feud with his ex Britney Spears.
The former *NSYNC member, 42, was accused of making fun of the Toxic singer at his birthday concert last week when he said he had no one to apologize to before his Song “Cry Me a River” began, which was supposedly about Britney cheating on him when they were together.
A source has now told The Sun that he wants to use a conversation with the 70-year-old Oprah to publicly address the fallout from his renewed argument with the singer: “Justin really isn't happy with how things turned out.” He wanted the music to speak for itself, but that's obviously not the case.
“His comments on stage only added fuel to the fire.” “The idea of a sit-down interview with someone like Oprah Winfrey was floated months ago and is now being planned again,” the insider said.

“He really doesn't want to do it, but the louder the backlash gets, the more he feels like he has to.”
Justin hit global headlines in 2023 after Britney revealed in her memoir The Woman in Me that she had an abortion during their relationship because he “didn't want to be a father” and “wasn't happy” as she expected .
Justin told fans at his “One Night Only” performance at Irving Plaza in New York City on January 31, which took place on his 42nd birthday, “I want to take this opportunity to apologize to absolutely no one.”
His statement and song choice of “Cry Me a River” left fans convinced he was attacking Britney, with some ranting online that his statement was a disgrace.
Others jumped to Justin's defense against the trolls by lashing out at Britney and her followers.
Britney, who dated Justin from 1999 to 2002, said before Justin's birthday performance that she wanted to apologize to anyone she had “offended” over her autobiography, writing in a since-deleted Instagram message: “I'm sorry deeply sorry.”
She then turned to Justin and added, “I also wanted to say that I'm in love with Justin Timberlake's new song 'Selfish.'
“It's so good and how come I laugh so hard every time I see Justin and Jimmy (Fallon) together???”
