Justin Timberlake, the 43-year-old US pop star and former NSYNC band member, recently made a joke about the incident where he was pulled over by police for driving while intoxicated (DWI) at his Boston gig. He appeared to be in a more lighthearted mood as he playfully mocked the whole scenario in front of his thousands of fans.
The arrest took place in Sag Harbor, a wealthy village in the Hamptons in New York state, last month for an alcohol-related offence. According to police, Timberlake failed to stop at a stop sign and stay in the right lane while driving. However, despite the allegations, Timberlake has strongly denied them and his lawyer has stated that he looks forward to defending himself vigorously.
But on Saturday, at his latest show in Boston's TD Garden Arena, Timberlake seemed to be in much better spirits. In a video that has since gone viral on social media, he can be seen asking the crowd, "Is there anyone here that is driving? No, I'm just kidding." This elicits a wave of laughter from the entire arena, including Timberlake himself.
Following his arrest, Timberlake has played several shows, including at New York's Madison Square Garden. His mugshot from the incident also went viral, along with an alleged conversation between him and the arresting police officer. According to reports, the officer was "too young" to recognize Timberlake and had no idea who he was. Apparently, the officer asked Timberlake what tour he was referring to, to which Timberlake replied, "The world tour."
Despite the incident, Timberlake is continuing his series of US shows, with his next stop being in Boston on Sunday evening. He will then go on to perform in Baltimore, Maryland, Cleveland, Ohio, and Lexington, Kentucky. His European tour leg will kick off in Krakow, Poland, on July 26, and will include performances in Birmingham and Manchester, as well as two dates at The O2 in London this August.
