[Isla]

Yikes, breaking up over text isn't cool. She still gave it her all during the video shoot though!

This is one of my favorites videos ❤️ The looks, the attitude, the body, and that dancing 🙌🏾 

Same! She’s in great form here and just kills it so effortlessly.

Oh wow idk that, I thought they broke up on SNL.

Its kind of a douche move to break up with ur partner while they're working and

OVER TEXT!

[Bigno]

I don't see why he would lie, especially with Britney a year away of coming out with a book.

Anyways, wow. It must be difficult to have had two of your most important relationships be ended like this.

I guess people forget about the pagers that have actual lines of text... Phones weren't as barbaric as u guys think haha... Just do some simple research??

[Slave4Godney350]

I totally believes this

Once a douche always a douche

It's crazy that she was able to give such an amazing performance in that video knowing everything she was going through. She did that a lot during the conservatorship too. Her strength and level of professionalism is incredible.

Justin seems the type to do this. He’s always been a sniveling self-focused person.

We're people really texting back then? Like what would it even be like 

"U + me R ovr. Sry"

Texting was not the same back then. Most phones had like a 30 character limit and it would take literally 5 times longer to text out a single word

Honey this is the US no some sheet 3rd world country.

i don’t buy this. I feel like it would have been said before over the last 20 years. He’s looking for attention. Texting was NOT a thing like it is now. T9 texting would not be easy for a breakup text. Zero percent believe this. 

Not easy? Unless sms worked differently in the US, texting was very easy and we did it daily and quickly. The only difference, at least in my country, was you had to pay for it and there was a character limit that's why everything was shortened, to fit more info in less space, but I doubt a Justin Timberlake would have problems paying a little more to send a longer message. I can assure you a bunch of my friends were dumped (or dumped somebody) via text around that time.

Oh my god who even cares anymore? This is so cringe for both of them. They were a young couple and it didn’t work out. Everyone needs to move on already. Britney has kids the same age as she was when they started dating.
