Justin Timberlake's Controversial Document Unveiled
Justin Timberlake, the famous popstar, got nabbed on July 26th in the US for a potential DUI incident, which is quite a hassle for him as it's the same day he was planned to kick off his Europe shows, part of his current world tour in Krakow, Poland. His first performance was scheduled on stage, but there's a possibility the authorities might let him attend the court hearing via video instead of in person.
As per a report from the U.S. portal "Page Six," Timberlake's tour was his main worry during his arrest. He allegedly complained to the cops, "This is gonna screw up my tour!", but one officer didn't recognize the celebrity and asked, "Which tour, mate?" Timberlake purportedly replied, "My world tour!"
His career hasn't been all rosy.
Britney Spears Love-Turned-Drama
Timberlake's romance with his co-star Britney Spears created a global sensation. The "Mickey Mouse Club" duo were together from '99 to '02. Critics criticized Timberlake for tarnishing Spears' image with his song "Cry Me a River," which implied that Spears had been untrue to him.
In her memoirs "The Woman in Me," published in 2023, Spears made some accusations against her ex-lover. She implied that it was actually Timberlake who had been unfaithful and had cheated on her with another famous person. Spears kept the identity of the star a secret.
Spears also claimed that she had an abortion during their relationship because Timberlake was not keen on becoming a father. She said he was "definitely not happy about the pregnancy."
Nipplegate
The "Nipplegate" incident created headlines worldwide when Timberlake and Janet Jackson were involved during the Super Bowl 2004 halftime show. During their joint performance, Timberlake accidentally exposed Jackson's breast to an audience of 140 million viewers when he ripped her costume. Timberlake later apologized for the "wardrobe malfunction" and stated that it was "unintentional." The scandal had a negative impact on Jackson's career, while Timberlake managed to escape relatively unscathed.
Janet Jackson seems to have put the incident behind her. In a 2022 docu, she said: "To be honest, the whole thing was blown out of proportion. And of course, it was an accident that couldn't have happened, but everyone is looking for a scapegoat, and that needs to stop." Timberlake and she are "good friends for life," she added, "and we will always be good friends." She also noted: "He and I have moved on, and it's time for everyone else to do the same."
Questionable Photos with Alisha Wainwright
Seven years after marrying Jessica Biel, questionable photos of Timberlake emerged in November 2019, showing him in New Orleans with his "Palmer" co-star Alisha Wainwright. They appeared to be holding hands.
Timberlake later apologized for the incident in a since-deleted Instagram post. He talked about his judgment being impaired and made it clear, "nothing happened between me and my co-star." He wrote: "I let loose too much that night and I regret my behavior. I should have known better. This isn't the behavior I want to set for my son. I'm sorry to my amazing wife and family for putting you all in an awkward spot and I'm focused on being the best husband and father I can be."
Jessica Biel commented on the situation. The couple continues to flaunt their inseparable bond. Just recently, the actress wrote on Instagram to her husband on Father's Day: "You are so many things for so many people. But for us, you are the Rock."
Similarly, Timberlake portrayed himself as a devoted family man. To pictures with his children on Instagram, he wrote: "My two best gifts. I'm still figuring out myself every day, just because you both chose me as your dad. I will always be there for you, in your bad times and your good times... to lift you up and show you how far you can go, and to support you when you fall." However, it seems Timberlake's family might have to support him now.
