Britney Spears is considered one of the pop icons of the 21st-century Western media industry. She is also a focal point of debates surrounding conservatorships and similar agreements of forced life management, thanks to her 13-year-long highly publicized struggle to free herself from one such agreement.

One of the key people in Spear’s life before her conservatorship was Justin Timberlake, with whom she had a tumultuous relationship that lasted till 2002, with the two singers having a rocky acquintance ever since.

Another person who’s had a rocky interaction with Timberlake is Janet Jackson, with the infamous 2004 Super Bowl incident where Timberlake ripped off Jackson’s bodice, causing severe harm to her career in the decades since.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of said incident. Amid her latest spat with Timberlake over the revelations she made in her memoir, Britney Spears posted a now-deleted Instagram message of appreciation for Jackson, stating:

“Thank you to this beautiful lady for keeping my dreams and heart alive,. She’s always been the deepest and brightest woman at the same time. She went through so much but I feel she is someone I will look up to for the rest of my life.”
