Megan Thee Stallion took to TikTok to set the record straight and clarify that there’s no bad blood between her and Justin Timberlake following a backstage video from the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) that had fans buzzing.

In the now-viral TikTok video posted on September 13, the Grammy-winning rapper playfully interacts with Timberlake, using animated hand gestures to emphasize her words. However, the video is silent, leaving fans in suspense about their conversation. Megan chose to overlay the clip with the 2001 J-pop ballad, “Fukai Mori” by Do As Infinity, which served as the second ending theme for the popular anime series “Inuyasha.” This clever nod to her love for anime added a unique touch to the video.

While Megan’s lips seem to form the words, “I’m not beefing with Justin Timberlake, chill!” in the video, Timberlake joins in with Megan’s signature “Real hot girl s–t!” ad-lib. Megan later shared the TikTok on Instagram with the caption, “I just talk with my hands🤷🏽‍♀️ lol @justintimberlake love ya 💙.”

The backstage clip had initially sparked speculation of a feud between the two artists. However, an insider clarified to Billboard that Megan was simply excited to meet Timberlake and wanted a proper introduction in a less chaotic setting.

Both Megan Thee Stallion and Justin Timberlake had eventful nights at the VMAs. Megan, alongside Cardi B, delivered the first live performance of their funky collaboration, “Bongos.” Meanwhile, Timberlake reunited with his *NSYNC bandmates, marking their first performance together in a decade.

This candid TikTok from Megan Thee Stallion highlights the power of social media in swiftly dispelling rumors and ensuring that fans are in the know about their favorite artists’ relationships and interactions.
