消息人士稱，梅根·斯泰利翁和賈斯汀·汀布萊克并沒有在MTV VMA上交手

Though many fans speculated that Justin Timberlake and Megan Thee Stallion got into a heated exchange while backstage at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards, a source close to the situation tells EW the pair were actually excited to meet each other.

盡管許多粉絲猜測賈斯汀·汀布萊克和梅根·斯泰利翁在2023年MTV音樂錄影帶大獎的后臺進行了激烈的交流，但一位知情人士告訴EW，兩人見面真的很興奮。

"Meg loves Justin. She was saying, 'No, no, no, we've never met before,'" the source explains of the interaction caught on a behind-the-scenes live feed documenting moments that didn't air during Tuesday night's live broadcast, which fans quickly reposted to Twitter/X. "It was their first time meeting and she was excited," the source clarifies.

“梅格愛賈斯汀。她說，‘不，不，不。我們以前從未見過面，’”消息人士解釋說，這段互動是在幕后直播中捕捉到的，記錄了周二晚上直播中沒有播出的時刻，粉絲們很快將其轉發(fā)到了推特/X上。消息人士澄清說：“這是他們第一次見面，她很興奮。”

The video (above) begins with Timberlake making his way through a group of people to say something to the rapper as she prepares to go on stage to perform her new song "Bongos" with Cardi B. Timberlake was at the ceremony as a surprise presenter, taking the stage earlier in the evening alongside Lance Bass, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, and Chris Kirkpatrick for an NSYNC reunion. Together, the boy band handed out the first award of the evening to Taylor Swift, who won Best Pop.

開始時，當這位說唱歌手準備上臺與卡迪·B一起表演她的新歌《Bongos》時，Timberlake穿過一群人，對她說了些什么。Timberlak作為一名驚喜的主持人出席了頒獎典禮，當晚早些時候，他與Lance Bass、JC Chasez、Joey Fatone和Chris Kirkpatrick一起登臺，參加了NSYNC的重聚。男孩樂隊一起向獲得最佳流行音樂獎的泰勒·斯威夫特頒發(fā)了當晚的第一個獎項。

Megan's hair covers her face for the first part of her response so her exact reaction is hard to decipher. She raises her finger in Timberlake's direction, and shakes her head from side to side while saying something indistinguishable on the video feed. At the end of the video, Timberlake can be seen walking away from the performer while she continues getting ready. Fatone, who is standing behind his former bandmate, appears to nod and smile at Megan on the way out so things don't seem too heated.

梅根在回應的前半部分頭發(fā)遮住了臉，所以她的確切反應很難辨認。她向Timberlake的方向舉起手指，左右搖頭，同時在視頻中說了一些無法區(qū)分的話。在視頻的最后，可以看到Timberlake在繼續(xù)準備時離開了表演者。站在前樂隊伙伴身后的法通在離開的路上似乎對梅根點頭微笑，這樣事情就不會顯得太激烈。

Some fans watching online speculated the exchange might have been Megan telling Timberlake that the five members of NSYNC gathering onstage together to present an award earlier in the night didn't count as the formal reunion fans have been begging for for years. A sentiment Swift seemed to share when accepting the award from them, asking "Are you doing something? What's gonna happen now? They're gonna do something and I need to know what it is."

一些在網上觀看的粉絲猜測，這場交流可能是梅根告訴汀布萊克，NSYNC的五名成員在當晚早些時候聚集在舞臺上頒獎，這不算是粉絲們多年來一直在乞求的正式重聚。斯威夫特在接受他們的獎項時似乎也有同感，他問道：“你在做什么嗎？現在會發(fā)生什么？他們會做什么，我需要知道這是什么。”

Representatives for Megan, Timberlake, and the VMAs did not immediately respond to EW's request for comment.

Megan、Timberlake和VMA的代表沒有立即回應EW的置評請求。

Outside of their music industry endeavors, Megan and Timberlake also recently world-premiered new movies at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, with Megan appearing in the new comedy Dicks: The Musical and Timberlake acting opposite Benicio Del Toro and Alicia Silverstone in Netflix's thriller Reptile.

除了音樂產業(yè)的努力，梅根和汀布萊克最近還在2023年多倫多國際電影節(jié)上全球首映了新電影，梅根出演了新喜劇《迪克斯：音樂劇》，汀布萊克在網飛驚悚片《爬行動物》中與貝尼西奧·德爾·托羅和艾麗西亞·西爾弗斯通演對手戲。
