Justin Timberlake has said that he would "absolutely" collaborate with his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears.
In news that is sure to delight fans of the famous former couple, Spears recently told a reporter that "Justin Timberlake is very good" in response to a question about who she would like to record a duet with.
E! News told the Sexy Back star about Spears' comment, to which he replied: "She did? Sure! Absolutely, absolutely."
He then went on to blame his young son Silas for being out of the loop with celebrity news, saying: "I have a 17 month old so I don't get the headline news... I apologise for not being in the know."
The Can't Stop the Feeling singer added: "I'm accessible, give us a call!"

Timberlake's former NSYNC bandmate Lance Bass also commented on a possible collaboration, saying: "I would love to see that happen, of course.
"I think everyone in the world wants to see them together again in any capacity. It's like everyone's childhood dream."
The pop stars famously began dating in 1999 after meeting on The Mickey Mouse Club, and went on to become one of showbiz's hottest couples, before they acrimoniously split in 2002.
Timberlake released his hit single Cry Me a River shortly afterwards, which featured a Britney lookalike in the video and seemingly referenced their break-up.
