Britney 'Really Likes' Her Ex Justin Timberlake's New Song 'Selfish'

Although she deleted the initial post on Tuesday morning, over the weekend, the "Oops!... I Did It Again" singer admitted that she liked ex Justin Timberlake's new single, "Selfish," which, coincidentally, is also the name of a song from her 2011 Femme Fatale album.

“I wanna apologize for some of the things I wrote about in my book. If I offended any of the people I genuinely care about I am deeply sorry… I also wanted to say I am in love with Justin Timberlake’s new song ‘Selfish,’” she wrote in the caption of the deleted Instagram post. “It is soo good and how come every time I see Justin and Jimmy together I laugh so hard ??? Ps ‘Sanctified’ is wow too.”

Although some fans speculated that she was hacked, an insider revealed that Britney's praise was genuine. "Honestly she just wanted to wish him well. She really does like the song," an insider told People magazine. "She's a kind person."

"She genuinely just loves good music. She was curious about [Timberlake's] new tracks, and she really likes his new music,” a second source added. “Britney has a good heart and is full of compliments when she likes something. She always speaks her mind. That’s what's so special about her."
