NSYNC have publicly backed the #FreeBritney movement as Britney Spears fights for the end of her conservatorship. 

The group, starring the Toxic singer’s ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake, which has been silent on the issue until now, took to social media to offer their support.

In the short post, they penned: “Also… #FreeBritney.”

Also… #FreeBritney

It comes after Justin, who dated the singer from 1999 to 2002, took to Twitter back in June to react to the singer’s shocking testimony about the conservatorship.

Insisting the situation is “just not right,” he tweeted: “After what we saw today, we should all be supporting Britney at this time. Regardless of our past, good and bad, and no matter how long ago it was… what’s happening to her is just not right.

“No woman should ever be restricted from making decisions about her own body. No one should EVER be held against their will… or ever have to ask permission to access everything they’ve worked so hard for.

“Jess [Biel, wife] and I send our love, and our absolute support to Britney during this time. We hope the courts, and her family make this right and let her live however she wants to live.”

During the hearing, Britney told Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny the conservatorship had left her “traumatised” and “depressed” as she pleaded for an end to the set-up and admitted she wants to sue her family for their treatment of her.

In a recent podcast interview, singer Lance Bass told Heather Dubrow he hasn’t “spoken to [Britney] for years” and confessed that they have “been kept away from each other for quite a while.”

“I don’t know exactly what she needs but I do know that she, to me — [from] what I see — is sane enough to pick her own people,” he insisted.

“She needs to be away from the dad. She needs to pick her own people running this conservatorship, if she even needs one, especially when choosing her lawyer.

“To me, there’s a bigger picture here…The main thing that I’m concerned about is the court systems and this judge. If this is really true, then we have to look at this judge, right? Because that means that they’re corrupt. I don’t know, it’s scary.”

Britney’s conservatorship was thrust into the spotlight off the back of the New York Times’ ‘Framing Britney Spears’ documentary, which saw Justin crafting a story suggesting Britney had cheated on him and fuelling the rumour with his music video for Cry Me a River.

Following the airing, he apologised to his ex, insisting: “I am deeply sorry for the times in my life where my actions contributed to the problem, where I spoke out of turn, or did not speak up for what was right

“I understand that I fell short in these moments and in many others and benefited from a system that condones misogyny and racism.”
