Another confession: I have never once heard anyone refer to Justin Timberlake as an ally of the LGTBQ community.

Puppy, that changed this week when he promoted his new movie during an interview Palmer, Justin was asked why he feels important that he is an ally of the gheigh.

“Thank you for saying that. “I really enjoy being an ally, and it’s a real honor when someone addresses me like that,” Justin told GLAAD.

I was not the only one who scratched my head. Gay Twitter has had a field day with its proclamation, especially since the ‘Holy Grail’ singer is not the first person to come to mind when you think of LGBTQ allies.

“Justin Timberlake is an ally because he plays someone in a movie who is friends with a boy who plays with dolls?” asked a user.

Justin Timberlake is an ally because he plays someone in a movie who is friends with a boy who plays with dolls? Wtf?

‘I need receipts to show what [Justin] actually did to be an ally for the LGBTQ community, ‘wrote another.

The memes were spot on because gay people are funny, neh:

Others just wanted justice for Janet Jackson and Britney Spears:

it’s so funny to me how Justin Timberlake thinks he’s an ally + ally … after what he did to gay icons Janet and Britney ?? no i I do not think so

So, finally, the gays talked and this is what they have to say:

Justin, maybe in your next interview you could tell how you were an ally for the LGBTQ community, and that would clear up the whole mess. K, goodbye.
