Summary
Justin Timberlake's musical comeback is off to a rocky start. The “SexyBack” singer is about to release "Everything I Thought It Was," his first new album in six years. On Thursday, he dropped his new single "Selfish," which quickly climbed to number one on iTunes. But in the wake of all the dirty deets Britney Spears shared about JT in her memoir, "The Woman in Me," her fans were determined to knock him down the charts. So they rallied to stream and buy her 2011 song which is also called "Selfish." This put their queen at the top of the charts and bumped Justin's single down to #3. But with the Princess of Pop now speaking out on Justin's new music, we'll see if her fans continue their games when JT's full album drops in March!
