Justin Timberlake adopted a Black accent while running into Ginuwine, according to his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears.
In an excerpt of the audio book version of Britney’s new memoir The Woman In Me, actress Michelle Williams narrates the pop star’s account of the interaction while doing her best impression of Timberlake’s “blaccent.”

“His band NSYNC was what people called back then ‘so pimp,'” Williams began. “They were white boys but they loved Hip Hop. To me, that’s what separated them from the Backstreet Boys, who seemed very consciously to position themselves as a white group. NSYNC hung out with Black artists.”
She continued: “Sometimes, I think they tried too hard to fit in. One day, J and I were in New York going to parts of town I’d never been to before. Walking our way was a guy with a huge blinged-out medallion. He was flanked by two giant security guards. J got all excited and said so loud, ‘Oh yeah, fo shizz, fo shizz. Ginuwine! What’s up, homie?’

“After Ginuwine walked away, Felicia [Britney’s former assistant] did an impression of J. ‘Oh yeah, fo shizz, fo shizz. Ginuwine!’ J wasn’t even embarrassed. He just took it and looked at her like, ‘Okay, fuck you, Felicia.'”

In another shocking revelation from The Woman In Me, Britney Spears claimed she fell pregnant with Justin Timberlake’s child during their relationship in the late ’90s and early ’00s, but they decided to get an abortion.
“It was a surprise, but for me, it wasn’t a tragedy,” the “Toxic” hitmaker wrote. “I loved Justin so much. I always expected us to have a family together one day. This would just be much earlier than I’d anticipated. But 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.”

She added: “If it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it. And yet Justin was so sure that he didn’t want to be a father.”
Britney described aborting the baby as “one of the most agonizing things I have ever experienced in my life.”
Meanwhile, Britney Spears recently reached out to JAY-Z and Beyoncé to collaborate with them on new music.
In a video posted to Instagram earlier this month, the 41-year-old showed off her dance moves to Bey’s LEMONADE cut “Daddy Lessons” and expressed her desire to have Hov spit a verse on a reworked version of the track with her.

“So many people have done remixes to my songs without my knowledge,” she wrote in the since-deleted post. “So I guess it’s safe to say I will be redoing this song eventually. !!! Just need to meet Jay-Z and add a rap to it … what’s up???”
