TIMBERLAKE FORGIVES THREE 6 MAFIA SNUB

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE has forgiven hometown friends THREE 6 MAFIA for snubbing him on a recent album by allowing the hip-hop group to record on his latest project. The CRY ME A RIVER STAR was upset to learn the rappers recorded all-Tennessee album STAY FLY last year (05) without his help - even though he grew up next to them. But he was so desperate for his new FUTURESEX/LOVESOUNDS album to have a Southern sound he asked the rappers to collaborate with him regardless. Group member JUICY J tells MTV, "It was great working with Justin. "We are (all) from Memphis, so the Southern vibe was there when we recorded the song. "It was a dream come true for us, we knew it was a smash hit."
