Great song JT … Pssss if you KNOW WHAT’S GOOD … !!!!!!”

Timberlake loved it, posting a crying-laughing emoji, followed by three praising hands.

Spears’ followers couldn’t get enough, with one fan writing, “Britney with a POST makes everyone talk because she is a legend. @justintimberlake A collaboration between them would be the most iconic thing in the world. I need this I love you.”
