Ladies and gentlemen, gather ’round and brace yourselves for a story straight out of a pop star’s worst nightmare! Just after the stroke of midnight on Tuesday, the smooth-voiced crooner himself, Justin Timberlake, took a detour from his usual hit-making to hit a new low—getting arrested for a DUI in the quaint hamlet of Sag Harbor, Long Island.
After a late-night joyride that included missing a stop sign and playing bumper lanes, JT found himself serenading the police instead of his adoring fans. Held overnight, he made his grand courtroom debut at 9:30 a.m. the next morning.
While we’re sure he’ll cry us a river of apologies, we’ve rounded up the funniest reactions (memes and tweets) about this unexpected plot twist in Timberlake’s life. Spoiler alert: it’s not exactly the kind of ‘bringing sexy back’ he intended! Enjoy!
