Justin Timberlake is working with The Weeknd

After quite literally trolling us last week with his new song ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’ - written for the new Trolls movie - Justin Timberlake has hinted that he’s working with The Weeknd on an upcoming album.

“Me and Abel have been talking about doing a collab,” the saucy-warbling dreamboat hinted, speaking on BBC Radio 1. “He’s working on an album right now. I don’t know if I was supposed to say that.” Woopsy.

As well as talking a lot about his latest endeavours to voice an animated troll, fatherhood, and taking time off, Justin said that getting back in the studio to work on the Trolls soundtrack spurred him on. As well as getting together with Pharrell to work on material for a new album, he’s been recording with Timbaland, too. “We’ve only just started, but I like it a lot… I don’t know when I’m going to put it out,” he said.

“SexyBack’s back,” Justin added. “SexyFront!”
