Justin Timberlake might have dissed Kanye West during his recent Saturday Night Live performance but, “for the record,” he still loves him. This is how he tried to downplay the so-called feud on Jimmy Fallon.

Check it out in the video below.

It all started last weekend, when, during his performance of “Suit & Tie,” of which Kanye had no kind things to say in the past, he changed one lyric to say, “My hit’s so sick / Got rappers acting dramatic.”

On Fallon the other night, he tried to downplay the whole thing by acting like he didn’t even remember changing the lyrics.

“Did I change the lyrics? You know, really, everyone, keep calm. For the record, I absolutely love Kanye, so there's that. Were the lyrics changed? I don't remember,” Justin said.

Fallon’s suggestion was to “keep calm and Kanye on.” So far, Kanye hasn’t said anything on the topic, which, frankly, is very surprising.
