The early 2000s were dominated by the high-profile relationship of Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears, a duo that remained a constant topic of conversation even long after their separation. However, things took a complicated turn when Timberlake released Cry Me a River, a song whose lyrics and music video storyline strongly hinted at being directed towards Spears and their broken relationship. The song only heightened the public scrutiny surrounding their split.
And the actor-singer seems to be treading a familiar path, as he recently shared a glimpse into his new album after a 6-year hiatus. This comes amidst speculation surrounding his potential divorce from wife Jessica Biel.
Justin Timberlake Drops New Single Amid Divorce Rumors
Justin Timberlake has offered a glimpse into his new album, Everything I Thought It Was, and has released the lead single from his upcoming album, titled, Selfish. The singer originally debuted the song at a free hometown concert in Memphis. With the song officially out, his next album is expected to be released in March 2024.
The pop star’s return to the music scene has been eagerly awaited as this is Timberlake’s first solo musical venture after Man of the Woods, which was released in 2018. His longtime collaborator, Timbaland, earlier talked about Timberlake’s next album in an interview with Variety, saying that it will be the return of “fun Justin.”
Despite the upbeat musical atmosphere, the accompanying music video is described as revealing a more “vulnerable” side of the pop star. While fans celebrate his musical comeback, the same cannot be said about his personal life, as rumors continue to circulate about a potential divorce from Jessica Biel. And with releasing a new single and announcing a new album, the singer appears to be mirroring a pattern reminiscent of his previous split with Britney Spears.
Justin Timberlake And Jessica Biel Are Rumored to Get Divorce
Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel’s relationship is reportedly on the verge of collapse, with divorce rumors swirling around the 12-year marriage. Sources close to the couple suggest that irreconcilable problems, including past allegations of infidelity, have led to a strain that even extensive couples therapy has failed to resolve.
“Though they do love each other, all of the couples therapy they’ve undergone simply isn’t fixing some of their underlying issues,” Life & Style stated in a recent report. The issues between the couple reportedly started following the release of Britney Spears’ memoir The Woman in Me.
It enclosed details about her past relationship with Timberlake, including the revelation that she became pregnant during their time together and the singer allegedly pressured her into having an abortion. Life & Style also reported that despite their love for each other, the couple’s attempts at overcoming these challenges have fallen short. However, they have not said anything about such claims as of yet.
Justin Timberlake’s next album, Everything I Thought It Was, is expected to be released in March 2024.
