His behavior regarding his relationship and subsequent breakup with Britney Spears was highlighted in the documentary.

The infamous Janet Jackson “wardrobe malfunction” was also brought up again on social media since the film was released Super Bowl weekend.

Justin Timberlake continued on Instagram by writing:

I’ve seen the messages, tags, comments, and concerns and I want to respond. I specifically want to apologize to Britney Spears and Janet Jackson both individually, because I care for and respect these women and I know I failed. I am deeply sorry for the times in my life where my actions contributed to the problem, where I spoke out of turn, or did not speak up for what was right. I know this apology is a first step and doesn’t absolve the past. I was to take accountability for my own missteps in all of this as well as be a part of a world that uplifts and supports.

What do you think of this apology? Was it needed? Was it too little too late?
