Megan Thee Stallion and Justin Timberlake appear to have had a heated exchange backstage at the 2023 Video Music Awards, according to a video that surfaced on social media on Tuesday, September 12.
The "Savage" artist, 28, was seen in the clip looking bored and seemingly dissing the "Mirrors" crooner, 42, as he walked past her with the other members of NSYNC. As Megan apparently spoke to Justin, her bandmate Joey Fatone appeared to laugh as they walked away while her stylist fixed her hair.
Several users of X – formerly known as Twitter – commented on the viral clip, with several writing that the exchange seemed "random."
"Oops, what happened?" » one person asked in the comments section. "What is going on?" another intervened. A third wrote: “Justin tiptoed on her. »
It is currently unclear why Megan and Justin appeared to be having an awkward moment. However, a source told Variety that evening that there had been "no fights" between them.
"He said, 'It's so nice to meet you,' and she said, 'No, no, that doesn't count, that doesn't count.' We need to meet properly,'" the insider told the publication, adding, "It was very cute."
The two continued to play their individual roles for the show. Justin and his band presented the award for Best Pop Song to winner Taylor Swift, while Megan performed her single "Bongos" with Cardi B on stage.
Before presenting Taylor, 33, with his award, Justin took a moment to reflect on NSYNC's success when they won their VMAs two decades ago.
"Over 20 years ago, we were just kids when we won Best Pop Video for 'Bye Bye Bye,'" said l actor of social networks. “It was our first VMA, and it meant a lot to us. It validated our hard work. »
As for Megan, she and Cardi B, 30, brought the house down when they performed together. Megan and Cardi slayed in deep blue fringed two-piece outfits while walking the runway. As part of their performance, the dynamic duo transformed the stage into a tropical getaway with palm trees in the background.
Representatives for Megan and Justin did not immediately respond to HollywoodLife's request for comment.
