Justin Timberlake Mocks Britney Spears' Rehab Stint in Song?

The rumor that Justin Timberlake has written a song for his ex, Britney Spears, was partly confirmed by Duran Duran's drummer Roger Taylor. The band's song 'Falling Down' that was written by Timberlake is said to be "loosely based on" Britney's fall.

"I suppose it's loosely based on her, but not only on one celebrity - just celebrity culture in general," Taylor said. "A lot of young celebrities seem to disappear into rehab. So it's kind of like, what could be happening in your wildest dream in that rehab center?"

Although Timberlake may come to deny this, the video that was premiered on Yahoo! Music last month indicates otherwise. A Britney look-a-like has been used as the model in the clip, portraying a starlet who checked into a rehab.

"I haven't spoken to Justin since the video has been made public," vocalist Simon Le Bon said. "But he likes his pretty girls, so he probably would like it. I just wish Britney could accept help. It seems that all the people who care about her, she's pushing away."

'Falling Down' is the lead single of the band's new album 'Red Carpet Massacre'. Timberlake and Timbaland aid the production as well as the writing of some of the tracks in that has just been released this week in U.S.

Concert promoters AEG reported that the band sold their December 3 gig at London's Lyceum Theater that can contain 2,000 audience in just under five minutes.
