Speaking to US radio show The Breakfast Club last week, the Mirrors singer said of the Brit boy band: "I'll be willing to say that we're better than them but I'm not laying down any gauntlet."
He added: "I've seen them a couple of times and I like those guys. It's interesting to see that whole wave come around."
However, when NME tweeted a link to their story covering Justin's comments, the 32-year-old singer retweeted the message and joked that he was actually referring to a pie eating contest.
Justin wrote: "@NME: Justin Timberlake: N Sync are better than One Direction... I thought the question was about a pie eating contest. My bad. #newsworthy"
One Direction were in the audience watching when Justin and his NSYNC bandmates reunited on stage at the MTV VMAs.
