Some of us revel in nostalgia. Some of us love looking back at cherished memories by looking at old photos. Some of us enjoy taking a look back to see where we once were, what we were doing and what was going on while we were growing up.
Then again, some of us don’t.
Heartthrob Justin Timberlake appears to be one of those who fall into the latter category. A rather avid fan of the Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears relationship of the early 2000’s spoke out on his choice for a profile picture:
@jtimberlake , honestly I don`t like ur profil pic,,
— britney/justin (@JTBritney) July 2, 2012
Honesty is the best policy, but sometimes the truth hurts.
"@JTBritney: @jtimberlake , honestly I don`t like ur profil pic,," I don't like yours either… Lol.
— Justin Timberlake (@jtimberlake) July 2, 2012
What may have appeared to be an off-handed jest has caused a lot of attention for the singer-turned-actor. Some saw it as a slight against Britney and some saw it as Timberlake displaying a bit of angst over his former relationship.

Those who weren’t trying to analyze the tweet simply enjoyed Timberlake’s witty response:

Even Maroon 5’s Adam Levine stepped in to weigh in on the drama:
