BRITNEY Spears has revealed new information about her and Ben Affleck in a social media post.
Britney, 42, made a post on Instagram claiming that she once made out with Ben, 51.
In the post, which has since been deleted by the singer but saved by TMZ, she shared a picture that showed her standing in between Ben and Grammy award winner Diane Warren.
The caption said: “Cool pic of me and Ben Affleck and Diane Warren years ago!
“He’s such an amazing actor. Did I fail to mention I made out with Ben that night… I honestly forgot… d**n that’s crazy!”
She continued: “Wish I could tell you guys the story that happened before that! Oh dear, I’m just being a gossip girl!
“Psss I actually forgot,” with laughing emojis.
The news surprised many fans as the photo was taken in the summer of 1999 – when Ben and Britney were reportedly dating other people.
Ben was dating his ex, Gwyneth Paltrow, at the time, and it’s possible Britney was dating Justin Timberlake because they started dating that year.
‘DISRESPECT’
Britney’s fans on X, formerly known as Twitter, and Reddit went wild after the post, and many believe Ben’s wife Jennifer Lopez was angry she shared her story.
One said: “JLO is going to STRANGLE Britney Spears after that Ben Affleck kissing post!!!”
“JLo is about to steal Britney’s vocals next if she keeps it up,” wrote another.
A third said: “I think it a little bit disrespectful because JLo follows her and personally I wouldn’t like to see on my timeline another woman saying how she had an affair with my husband.”
A fan wrote: “Yeah, I don’t know what to believe. Ben used to be pretty wild and Britney is weird.
“All I know is that JLo is hot and Ben has probably made out with every cute actress and Popstar by the looks of this. I hope Bennifer 2.0 is doing well.”
BRIT VS. JUSTIN
Justin and Britney’s “feud” is non-existent and the trauma over her abortion has been resolved in private.
Justin apologized to his ex-pop superstar partner and they are now “fine,” his NYSNC bandmate Lance Bass revealed in an exclusive interview with The U.S. Sun.
Lance has been a friend to both Britney and long-term pal Justin.
He says that Britney addressed the break up in the book to set her record straight on that split, but “that was the past.”
He insists that while publicly it appears Britney remains upset: “They don’t care. They are good.”
Lance also added that Britney fans’ successful push of her single Selfish ahead of Timberlake’s new single of the same name on the iTunes Charts is “good for everyone.”
Some Spears’ fans continue to attack her ex-partner following her memoir passage of him wanting an abortion and cheating allegations in 2001.
When asked how the famous couple solved their differences, Lance declared: “Well, the problem is they’ve already sorted it out and everyone just forgets.
“No, they are fine. They support each other. They love each other in their own ways.
“He has apologized. She is amazing. It’s just like everyone, this has happened already.
“So I think just people like to keep fights going but look at the people that are in the fight. They don’t care. They’re good.”
Justin has not made any public comment about Spears’ claims but did tell fans at his Vegas gig in December “no disrespect” before playing Cry Me a River – a tune penned about her cheating on him.
