LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Justin Timberlake has mysteriously wiped his entire Instagram account, deleting all posts and starting 2024 with a blank slate. The move comes just months after ex-girlfriend Britney Spears published revelations about their relationship and abortion in her bestselling book, as reported by Daily Mail.

As the internet mocked Timberlake's disappearing act, it begs the question - is the singer trying to rewrite his own narrative in the wake of Spears' shocking disclosures?



 

Justin Timberlake mysteriously wipes entire Instagram over New Year's weekend

Justin Timberlake offered no explanation when he wiped his Instagram account over New Year's weekend. The 42-year-old's photo grid now shows zero posts, a stark contrast from his previously active presence sharing glimpses into his music, acting projects, and family life with his wife Jessica Biel.

While the account itself remains intact with Timberlake still having over 70 million followers, the abrupt scrubbing of all images and videos has fueled speculation.

His profiles on X (formerly Twitter) and Threads are also strangely quiet as his last original tweet was back in September of 2023 about an NSYNC reunion performance.



 

The digital crickets chirping on Timberlake's pages coincide with lingering fallout from bombshell claims Spears made about him in her memoir 'The Woman in Me'.

Released last year, the princess of pop confessed to having an abortion when she got pregnant during their high-profile relationship as young pop stars.

"(Justin) definitely wasn't happy about the pregnancy...he said we weren't ready to have a baby in our lives, that we were way too young," Spears wrote about terminating the pregnancy.

"To this day, it's one of the most agonizing things I have ever experienced in my life," she said.

Timberlake turned off Instagram comments in October of 2023 amid the furor over Spears' disclosures. But shutting down his account completely points to deeper issues haunting the singer into the new year.

Internet mercilessly mocks Justin Timberlake for wiping entire Instagram account

The internet isn't shedding tears over Timberlake's latest move. Still harboring resentment for how he treated Spears post-breakup, online commentators mercilessly mocked him for wiping Instagram.

One X user astutely observed, "Britney’s impact is real." Meanwhile, another user downplayed Timberlake's significance in comparison to artists like Beyonce or Taylor Swift, commenting, "He’s not Beyoncé or Taylor. No one cares."



 



 

Adding to the ridicule, a third user bluntly suggested, "Delete the whole account," while another individual simply reiterated the notion of Spears' impact with the phrase, "Britney impact."



 



 

Further reflecting the lack of interest or disdain, a fifth user remarked, "Nobody cares."

Lastly, a sixth user's comment indicated a sense of oblivion toward Timberlake, expressing, "We forgot abt him."
