Justin Timberlake says the internet won’t let him forget THAT double denim look with Britney Spears

Justin Timberlake has given his beloved fans several memorable pop culture moments over the years.

But the 10-time Grammy winner appears to be haunted by one particular moment that he just can’t seem to outrun.

He recently revealed that the internet hasn’t let him forget about the infamous double denim red carpet look he sported with ex-girlfriend Britney Spears at the 28th Annual American Music Awards in 2001.

The 40-year-old told John Legend during The Hollywood Reporter’s songwriter roundtable: ‘I confess that there was maybe a period in the ’90s where I could skip over some of the outfits that were public, but the internet will never.’  

‘Denim on denim on denim on denim that will never be forgotten,’ John chimed in, as Justin responded: ‘Thanks, John. Uh, no, the internet won’t allow me to forget them. So it’s all good.’

Justin and Britney, 39, were an iconic couple when they dated from 1999 to 2002, after they starred together on The All-New Mickey Mouse Club as kids.

He went on to marry Jessica Biel, 38, in October of 2012, and they share sons Silas Randall, five, and Phineas, seven months, whom they welcomed in July.

The Man of the Woods artist said last week on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, when asked about how the baby is doing: ‘You mean me? I’m doing great… Nobody’s sleeping, but he’s so cute.’ 

He also recently chatted with pal Dax Shepard on his podcast Armchair Expert about raising his kids in the spotlight.

Justin said: ‘I try to be conscious of making sure we can live a life where we’re not weirdly private, but we’re conscious of making sure they can be kids for as long as possible and not have the weight of somebody else treating them differently because of something that their parents do.’
