Madonna Admits To Listening To Justin Timberlake 'Obsessively'

Madonna has revealed that her recent collaboration with Justin Timberlake occurred because she was listening to his music “obsessively”.

Timberlake is one of a number of stars that feature on Madonna’s new album ‘Hard Candy’ – which was released last Monday (April 28th).

Speaking to MTV, Madonna said the high profile collaborations with Timberlake, Kanye West and Pharrell Williams were natural.

"Because they're good, and I like their shit,” the singer said.

Madonna also revealed that her collaboration with Timberlake got very personal on the album track ‘Miles Away’.

"We put our stuff out there," she said. "And after we did the song, everybody in the studio was like, 'Oh, I can relate to that.' "

Timberlake joined Madonna for a special one off show in New York earlier this week where she performed songs off her new album.
