During his concert at TD Garden in Boston over the weekend, Justin Timberlake made a lighthearted reference to his recent arrest for driving while intoxicated (DWI). The 43-year-old musician was charged after allegedly running a stop sign and veering out of his lane in Sag Harbor, New York. According to the Associated Press, Timberlake claimed to have consumed only one martini and was following friends home, but he refused a breath test at the police station.
Videos posted on social media captured Timberlake’s joke during his Saturday night performance. He asked the audience, “So, uh, is there anyone here tonight that is driving… no I’m kidding.” The crowd responded with laughter. However, the singer quickly shifted the tone and addressed the audience seriously. He asked if it was anyone’s first time attending his show and expressed his hope that they would feel the fellowship and love.
Timberlake’s next court date related to his DWI arrest is scheduled for July 26, but he is not required to appear in person. The article does not provide further details regarding the outcome of the court proceedings.
