Billboard published a story online on Monday, August 24 with the headline, 'Jordin Sparks on the 'Pain and Confusion' From Her Breakup With Jason Derulo'.
She claimed while she discussed the split in the interview, most of her quotes are actually about her new album, which is her first in sex years.
The article is structured in a fill-in-the-blank format, with Sparks giving answers for queries like “my biggest comeback fear,” “my musical hero,” and “my most sentimental new song.” It’s only for the last one, “my rebound,” that Sparks alludes to Derulo, saying, ''People think that a celebrity breakup is different, and it is in the way that it’s public. But you still feel the same sort of pain and confusion. I just had to deal with it. And I played Big Sean’s ‘I Don’t F*ck With You’ multiple times a day!”

The outlet has not responded to Spark’s tweet, nor has it changed the headline and tweet.
