Justin Timberlake apologizes to Britney Spears and Janet Jackson

still a cornball - he waited until 2021 to shoe horn in a janet apology?

I don’t see the big deal with him avoiding the Janet shit. What was he supposed to say? They did it on purpose. They was stuck to the it was an accident train.
 
Only thing he needs to apologize to Janet for, was blaming it all on her. Cuz him ripping that shit off was planned and they both knew about it.
He did that shit because he didn't want to get the blame for it even though he knew it was his fault but now he wants to apologize.
 
Punished?
They both should have just came out and said it was on purpose but ain’t shit he could have said.

like foreal. What could he had said to make the outcome different. It’s her body and her breast.

Following the incident, CBS permitted Timberlake to appear at the 46th Grammy Awards ceremony but did not allow Jackson to attend, forcing her to withdraw after being scheduled as a presenter.[135] The controversy halted plans for Jackson to star in the biographical film of singer and activist Lena Horne, which was to be produced by American Broadcasting Company. Horne was reportedly displeased by the incident, but Jackson's representatives stated that she withdrew from the project willingly.[136] A Mickey Mouse statue wearing Jackson's iconic "Rhythm Nation" outfit was mantled at Walt Disney World theme park the previous year to honor her legacy, but it was removed following her controversial performance.

The album's performance was affected by blacklisting from radio and music channels, in part at the behest of CBS CEO Les Moonves.[142] Conglomerates involved in the boycott included Viacom and CBS, subsidiaries MTV, Clear Channel Communications, and Infinity Broadcasting, the latter two among the largest radio broadcasters.[143][144] The blacklist was placed into effect preceding the release of Damita Jo and continued throughout the course of Jackson's following two albums. Entertainment conglomerate Viacom owns MTV, VH1, and many radio formats, and a senior executive commented that they were "absolutely bailing on the record. The pressure is so great, they can't align with anything related to Janet. The high-ups are still pissed at her, and this is a punitive measure."
