Justin Timberlake has apologised after ripping off Janet Jackson's top and exposing her right breast at the end of her live Super Bowl half time performance.
Timberlake reached across Jackson's leather gladiator outfit and pulled off the covering to her right breast, revealing a silver tassle covering her nipple.
After the incident, which was watched by around 140 million viewers around the world, Timberlake stated he did not intend to expose Jackson's breast in the dance routine.
"I am sorry that anyone was offended by the wardrobe malfunction during the halftime performance of the Super Bowl," Timberlake said in a statement. "It was not intentional and is regrettable."
"I don't think the Super Bowl has ever seen a performance like this," Jackson's choreographer, Gil Duldulao, was quoted as saying. "There are some shocking moments in there...She's doing her job well."
TV network spokeswoman LeslieAnne Wade said: "CBS deeply regrets the incident." She added that CBS officials attended rehearsals of the half time show all week, "and there was no indication any such thing would happen".
The Super Bowl half time show, which also featured P Diddy, Nelly and Kid Rock, was produced by MTV.
Joe Browne, NFL executive vice president, said it was "unlikely" MTV will produce another Super Bowl halftime.
MTV said the incident was "unrehearsed, unplanned, completely unintentional."
