At a show at Irving Plaza in New York City on January 31, Timberlake reportedly said, “I’d like to take this opportunity to apologize to absolutely f**king nobody,” as he went on to sing ‘Cry Me a River’.

Another user wrote, “He actually doesn’t do many interviews outside of being on Fallon once in a while, so this would be interesting 👀.”

A user stated, “Another sit down so he can cry and play a victim again? Smh.”

One user added, “They should both move on but as long as fans encourage both their immature behavior nothing is going to change.”
