I am not standing by Justin Timberlake on this one. What he did was so stupid and Wrong. He also has a Criminal Record and this is not the first time he has gotten so drunk before. Do people remember when he touched a co-star??? I can't stand by him until he gets help.

"Tough week?" He needs to thank the young Gen Z cop who didn't know who Justin Timberlake is! Cop may have saved his life or the lives of others. Justin was drinking and drugging - a driving disaster in the making! Don't want to lose you now, Justin!

[@ssshar2176]

No proof he was.

[@Dewdrop90210]

More like Prince of Pop Soda 🙄

[@chrisrutledge5294]

He never takes any ACCOUNTABILITY for his actions. The main problem that the black community has with Justin is that he allowed Janet to take the fall, and be publicly humiliated for so long for something that he did. When he finally did decide to come forth, it was a lame apology that was too little too late. Now he’s doing the exact same thing. Evidently he hasn’t learned from previous mistakes.

He addressed the crowd but didn’t address the mistake he made(?). I mean, he’s clearly guilty. What’s to avoid? Say you’re sorry, say you were irresponsible and selfish, tell the crowd to not do what he did and get home safe. That would have been respectable.

[@elisad3090]

I bet he doesn't want to say sorry because he doesn't want to accept the apology from Britney spears about the book and doesn't want to apologize to Janet Jackson on what he did and blame it on her.

I am not even a fan of his music but I respect the guy for not doing 2 things 1/ Doing a Mel Gibson and going ballistic at a police officer and 2/ Not doing a Reece Witherspoon " Do U know who I am?"........he was arrested without complaints from him and spent the night in jail.......He will go to court and either have to pay a fine or do community service but I respect him for not trying to use his celebrity status to get out of being arrested.......he is a singer....

[@phillipbates9587]

Nice explanation

[@dori3228]

He just wants to move on." I am sure. Gayle King said, "He's not an irresponsible person, he's not careless." If the charges are correct, he is, absolutely, irresponsible and careless. Perhaps, she has not been affected by a loved one being injured or worse in a preventable crash. Hopefully, he is thanking God no one was hurt or worse. Own it. Perhaps, JT can respond by advocating against any and all dangerous driving. We have an epidemic and the blatant disregard for others' safety and traffic laws is beyond comprehension. Please, remember and honor Retired Msgt Shane “LOCKJAW” Jones, 40, who died tragically in a motorcycle accident in Plant City, FL on his way home on the evening of November 2, 2019. Lockjaw was an active member of the US Military Vets Motorcycle Club Lakeland and member of his community. He and a buddy went out for a one hour country drive and Shane never came home to his wife, Nikki, and his baby daughters, Raven and Harley. His other two children, Greg and Ashlie will grow up without their Dad. Drinking and driving and without a driver's license, an illegal alien pulled out in front of him. He had a history of multiple DUI's and I believe "we" had even sent him to driving school. I've heard a saying 100 times, "Friends don't let friends drive drunk." Here's to new friends, planning ahead, calling an Uber, and being honest, JT. Best to all. GOD BLESS AMERICA! ❤️ 🇺🇸
