Justin Timberlake Speaks Publicly On The Janet Jackson Nipple-Gate Situation

After the Super Bowl nipple slip with Janet Jackson in the 2004 Super Bowl halftime performance show, Justin Timberlake’s success soared, selling out arenas and gaining multiple platinum albums and more. After the 2004 Super Bowl situation with Timberlake seen around the world, Jackson has still not yet fully recovered.

While preparing to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show this year, Justin Timberlake is about to go on a media tour for the upcoming performance, latest single, and his new upcoming album “Man of the Woods.” His first interview for his album circuit was with Zane Lowe on Beats 1.

“I stumbled through it … to be quite honest, I had my wires crossed,” Timberlake said of the aftermath of the 2004 wardrobe malfunction, where he removed a portion of Jackson’s clothing, revealing her exposed breast.

Lowe asked whether he and Jackson took time to “resolve the situation” and “make peace of the whole thing” after the wardrobe malfunction. “Absolutely,” the singer said, flatly. “I don’t know that a lot of people know that. I don’t think it’s my job to do that because you value the relationships that you do have with people.”

“It’s just something that you have to look back on and go, ‘OK, you can’t change what’s happened, but you can move forward and learn from it … It’s just one of those things were you go, like, ‘Yeah, what do you want me to say?’ We’re not going to do that again.”

Watch the interview below, along with the Janet Jackson clip following.
