Alexsandra Wright, who’s a good friend of Spears, added, “They were in the same place, they were both kids going through the same thing, they were really each other’s first love.”

Andrea Simpson, senior news editor for National Enquirer also said, “When they started touring together, with NSYNC and Britney Spears in ’98, that’s when sparks really started to fly.”

Robertson said, “Fans of Britney, fans of Justin, readers of ‘The National Enquirer’ could not get enough of this new power couple.”
