AceShowbiz - While Justin Timberlake seemingly has moved on from his recent legal problem, his fans apparently haven't. After his DWI arrest, the "Can't Stop the Feeling!" hitmaker was trolled by social media users with a particular merch request.
On Tuesday, June 25, the 43-year-old NSYNC singer promoted one of his merchandise. Making use of his Instagram page, he uploaded a video of him showing off a blue tee. The top came with two short sleeves and an orange "Justin Timberlake. The Forget Tomorrow World Tour" graphic.
Justin was documented standing among chairs at Madison Square Garden ahead of his concert at the venue in New York City. He held up the merch with both his hands while sharing a few words to the camera.
Justin, who was sporting an all-black ensemble and a matching hat, could be heard saying, "This is so important right now." He went on to encourage his fans to purchase the merch, "Let's go. Got y'all's Knicks colors," before leaving the area and bursting into laughter.
Along with the short footage, the "Cry Me a River" singer wrote in the caption of the post, "Had to do it," adding eyes emoji. He also tagged the official Instagram account of basketball team New York Knicks.
It did not take long for the post to be flooded with online responses from Instagram users, including those who poked fun at a remark, "this is going to ruin the tour," that he made to his arresting officer. In the comments section, one in particular simply wrote, "Glad it didn't ruin the tour."
Another demanded Justin to make a special merch, writing, "Ok but petition for new merch that says 'This is going to ruin the tour' because I'd honestly buy that in a heartbeat." Similarly, a third asked, "please i need a 'this is going to ruin the tour' tour shirt jt," adding a folded hands emoji.
Others, in the meantime, made fun of his now-famous mugshot, in which he had glassy and red eyes. One of them penned, "You should make a tour shirt with your mug shot. That'd be kinda [a flame emoji]."
The post came more than one week following his arrest for driving while intoxicated (DWI) in Sag Harbor, New York. The June 18 arrest involved failing to stop at a stop sign and swerving across lanes in his 2025 BMW.
