Justin Timberlake Shares First Social Media Post Since Arrest: ‘This Is So Important Right Now’
The musician revealed some special Forget Tomorrow World Tour T-shirts made in the colors of the New York Knicks on Tuesday, June 25
Justin Timberlake is marking a special moment following his DWI arrest on Long Island, New York.
On Tuesday, June 25, the musician, 43, headed to New York’s Madison Square Garden Arena with his Forget Tomorrow World Tour and gave a shoutout to the New York Knicks in his first social media post since his arrest in the early hours of June 18.
To celebrate his N.Y.C. performance, Timberlake had some tour T-shirts made in the team’s blue and orange colors — and was seen on camera holding up the merch in a video shared on his Instagram.
The “Selfish” singer wore a black T-shirt and cap in the clip, which was taken in the arena ahead of his show. “This is so important right now… let’s go! Got y’alls Knicks colors,” Timberlake, whose previous Instagram post was on Father’s Day, jokingly said in the video.
“We had to do it!” the musician then sang, as someone else said, “Bing, bong” from behind the camera.
“Had to do it 👀 @nyknicks,” Timberlake captioned the post.
The *NSYNC hitmaker — who will also take the stage at the iconic venue on Wednesday, June 26 — has been continuing his tour after news of his arrest in Sag Harbor for driving while intoxicated or impaired was revealed last week.
During his show on Saturday, June 22 at Chicago’s United Center, the Grammy winner thanked both new and longtime fans, and “the love of what is almost three decades together.”
