India Arie is mad at Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon — and it has nothing to do with the Super Bowl, Prince, or Janet Jackson.
India is mad because on Sunday night, Justin and Jimmy participated in a comedy sketch on ‘The Tonight Show’ called — wait for it — ‘Songversation.’
In the skit, the two took turns completing each other’s sentences in song.
India isn’t having it. She accused the two of appropriating ‘her’ word.
I hear the @jimmyfallon show appropriated my sacred word #songversation Last night for a skit. ???? just be clear ~ Im offended. ????
