Janet Jackson's infamous 2004 'wardrobe malfunction' is the subject of the next 'New York Times Presents' episode.
Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake perform during the halftime show at Super Bowl XXXVIII between the New England Patriots and the Carolina Panthers at Reliant Stadium on Feb. 1, 2004 in Houston, Texas.The latest episode of the's legendary"wardrobe malfunction" during the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show.
The execs from the NFL and MTV -- which produced that year's halftime show -- will walk through the events of the night, during which Justin Timberlake ripped a piece of cloth off of Jackson's costume, exposing her nipple for 9/16th of a second and leading to years of complaints, fines and serious career implications for Jackson. Though fleeting, the incident set off a cultural tsunami that reverberates until today.
Following the incident, Jackson was uninvited from the following week's Grammy Awards and her videos were yanked from Viacom properties including MTV, CBS and Infinity Broadcasting. Timberlake, though, not only appeared at the Grammys, but was allowed to issue an apology at the event, and then went on to headline the SB halftime show in 2018, while Jackson has never been invited back.
“I've seen the messages, tags, comments, and concerns and I want to respond,” Timberlake said at the time. “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.
At press time it did not appear that Timberlake or Jackson had reacted to the announcement. Jackson recently previewed the trailer for, an upcoming two-night, four-hour doc slated to air on A&E and Lifetime in January."This is my story, told by me, not through someone else's eyes," she says in the preview.
