Timbaland calls for Spears, Justin team

Music producer Timbaland has called for Britney Spears to team up again with Justin Timberlake to help resurrect her career.

Timbaland claims that the 'SexyBack' singer was prepared to collaborate with Spears on her new album but was turned away by the popstar.

The hip-hop star told MTV: "She needs a story. She has no comeback story. That's the problem. She has to have a team.

"She needs to come back with Justin doing records, [then we'd see headlines like] 'She went back to her ex and she's making smashes'. [But instead she got] so big-headed and [was] like, 'Screw you, screw you, I don't need nobody'. "

He added: "She should humble herself and make a phone call and say, 'I'm sorry'. She knows what she's sorry about.

"She needs to say, 'I was wrong', and it'll definitely move forward...That's all she has to say."
