Time and Justin Timberlake heal all wounds. Sunday night marked the official end of any bad blood between Taylor Swift and Beyoncé after that ugly incident at the VMAs in 2009. Confidenti@l spies at Timberlake’s Barclays Center show spotted the pair grooving together at the front of the crowd. “Taylor was there with a few nonfamous friends,” said our source. “Beyoncé and Jay Z were seated in back of them. They took up two whole rows.” After Hova went onstage to perform “Holy Grail,” we’re told that “Bey and Tay got down to the encore of ‘SexyBack.’ ”

“Beyoncé left early and Taylor was still dancing with her friends,” added the spy. Things got awkward between the singers way back in 2009, when Kanye West famously stormed the stage after Swift won the Best Female Artist category, interrupting her acceptance speech to say that “Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.” We’re told that Timberlake’s newly pregnant wife, Jessica Biel, was also in the house. “She was in the 901 section, and you could see her bump,” said the concertgoer. Beyoncé and Jay Z also dropped in at Swift’s 25th birthday party on Friday night.
