According to a Jan. 24 report from MMA Mania, UFC President Dana White hasn't forgotten about the time Justin Timberlake refused to say hello to children backstage at the Nickelodeon Awards.
"Recently me and my wife were at Nickelodeon Awards and we were backstage with the Black Eyed Peas in their dressing room hanging out," White said in a recent interview. "First of all, this thing is in L.A., so every guy on the planet wants to get their kids backstage with all the people that are back there. They had Bieber, Selena Gomez, all these people are back there. So my kids are back there and they're taking pictures with all these people and stuff. There [are] no other kids backstage. No other kids. Just my kids, and I think I have Lorenzo's daughter with me, too."
White went on to explain that other A-list celebs were backstage at the awards show, and just about all of them were fan-friendly.
Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were apparently having fun chatting it up with wide-eyed, starstruck children backstage, while Timberlake passed on the opportunity.
"This was a few years ago. You name it, A-list, all the A-listers that the kids would love are backstage," White said. "The biggest d---head back there was Justin Timberlake. Just such a complete jack off, yeah. Just couldn't have been a bigger d---. I don't know if he's a UFC fan or not, but I'm not a big Timberlake fan. Takes two seconds to say hi to a kid. Takes two seconds. I never run by anybody. If you're a fan of the UFC and you like it or your kids like it, why would I not want to talk to you? Why would I not?"
