Britney Spears is proving that she still has a lot of unheard mementos to share that weren’t mentioned in her bombshell 2023 memoir — including the fact that, according to her, she and Ben Affleck once got frisky many moons ago.
On Wednesday (Feb. 7), the 42-year-old pop star posted a throwback photo of her posing in between the Hypnotic actor and songwriter Diane Warren and wrote, “Cool pic of me and Ben Affleck and Diana Warren years ago.”
“He’s such an amazing actor,” she continued before dropping the secret: “Did I fail to mention I made out with Ben that night … I honestly forgot … damn that’s crazy !!!
“Wish I could tell you guys the story that happened before that !!!” Spears added. “Oh dear, I’m just being a gossip girl.”
Billboard has reached out to Affleck’s reps for comment.
It’s unclear how long ago the night Spears is referring to actually went down, but certainly a lot has changed since then. Affleck is now married to Jennifer Lopez, while the “Toxic” singer wed dancer Sam Asghari in 2022 before he filed for divorce the following year.
And while the alleged make-out sesh didn’t make it into Spears’ 2023 memoir The Woman in Me, a lot of material regarding her relationship with Justin Timberlake did — as did a few unflattering claims about the “SexyBack” musician’s role in their breakup. In late January, however, Spears praised Timberlake’s new single “Selfish” on Instagram, writing, “I wanna apologize for some of the things I wrote about in my book … If I offended any of the people I genuinely care about I am deeply sorry.”
A few days later, the former *NSYNC band member seemingly shaded his superstar ex by telling the crowd at his New York City concert, “I’d like to take this opportunity to apologize to absolutely f—ing nobody.”
Spears may have gotten the last word, though. “Someone told me someone was talking sh– about me on the streets,” she wrote via Instagram on Feb. 1, possibly referencing Timberlake’s remark. “Do you want to bring it to the court or will you go home crying to your mom like you did last time ??? I’m not sorry !!!”
