The singer clearly liked the idea, turned to the camera and added, “Jason, call us”. “And I’m like, “Next time you won’t sing with me, ‘ and he turns around and he goes, ‘Me!’ And it’s like, ‘You’re a genius!’ You know, he’s everything and I just like hanging out with him”.

When informed of Spears’ comments, Timberlake told E! Absolutely, absolutely. I have a 17-month-old so I don’t get the headline news.
Justin Timberlake (right) said he’d be willing to collaborate with Britney Spears.
The pop royalty by no means ended their relationship on good terms.
Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears were one of the world’s most famous celebrity couples, dating on-and-off for a few years before they went their separate ways in 2002.
In this February 10, 2002, file photo, Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears wave to the crowd prior to the start of the 2002 NBA All-Star game in Philadelphia.
The singer’s willingness to develop a song with her ex struck a major high note with their fans – as well as Timberlake’s former groupmate Lance Bass. Back in May, Justin did an interview at Cannes alongside Anna Kendrick in anticipation of the Trolls movie. “I don’t smell good all the time”. There’s no ill will.
So, will there be a future Britney-Justin duet? Listen to a clip from the red carpet Q&A below, then watch the burgeoning stars duet on “I’ll Take You There” on the Mickey Mouse Club and hear “What It’s Like to Be Me”.
The pair have both moved on since the split.
