The superstars clarified what happened after fans speculated they were arguing backstage in a viral video

Megan Thee Stallion and Justin Timberlake have made it clear they don’t have any “savage” words for each other — only really nice ones.

After fans speculated that a viral video caught the rapper, 28, and the pop star, 42, arguing backstage at the 2023 MTV VMAs on Tuesday, the two superstars clarified that they only have nice things to say about each other.

On Wednesday after the award show, the “Bongos” artist shared a TikTok, which she also posted to Instagram, of her and the “Mirrors” singer hanging out together at Tao Downtown in New York City in the nightclub’s private sky boxes. In the video, the two appeared to be having a blast as they were seated next to each other and laughing.

“I just talk with my hands🤷🏽‍♀️lol @justintimberlake love ya 💙,” the hip-hop star captioned the post, referring to how she was waving her hands at the former *NSYNC member in the viral clip.

Timberlake weighed in on the incident himself by commenting on the post. “Real hot girl s---. Never change @theestallion ❤️,” he replied to the post, which the rapper soundtracked with the J-pop band Do As Infinity's "Fuka Mori,” or one of the themes to the anime Inuyasha.
