Justin Timberlake arrested on DWI charges in Sag Harbor
Justin Timberlake was arrested on charges related to driving while intoxicated Monday night in Sag Harbor, NY, Page Six can confirm.
The “Mirrors” singer, 43, is due in court Tuesday for arraignment, a Sag Harbor Justice Court official told Newsday.
The details of Timberlake’s arrest were not immediately available, but a police spokesperson told the Long Island newspaper that the specific charges would be announced later Tuesday.
Sources told TMZ that cops pulled over the former *NSYNC member almost immediately after he got behind the wheel of his car following a night out with friends at a hotel in the Hamptons.
Page Six has reached out to Timberlake’s rep and the Sag Harbor Village Police Department for comment.
The Grammy winner is currently in the midst of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour in support of his sixth studio album, “Everything I Thought It Was,” which he released in March.
He last performed Saturday at the Kaseya Center in Miami and has two concerts scheduled for Friday and Saturday at the United Center in Chicago followed by back-to-back shows next Tuesday and Wednesday at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
It is unclear whether Timberlake will have to postpone any of his tour dates following his arrest.
The “SexyBack” crooner has not spoken out about the incident on social media, where he last posted Sunday in honor of Father’s Day.
“My 2 greatest gifts. I learn more about myself everyday just because you both chose me to be your Daddy,” he captioned a pair of photos with his two sons, Silas, 9, and Phineas, 3.
“I will always be there for you through your peaks and valleys… to lift you up and show you how high you can take this life and to pick you up when you fall. And, of course, to flood you with insufferable Dad-jokes all along the way. I love you both so much. Thank you for giving me my biggest purpose.”
Timberlake shares the children with his wife, Jessica Biel, whom he married in 2012.
While this is the former Mouseketeer’s first known arrest, he is no stranger to controversy.
Timberlake has faced two decades’s worth of backlash from fans of his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears after he publicly accused her of cheating on him during their three-year relationship in the early aughts.
The “Trolls” voice actor issued a belated apology to Spears in 2021, writing on Instagram that he had “failed” the “Toxic” singer, 42, and wanted to “take accountability” for his “missteps.”
In his since-deleted post, Timberlake also apologized to Janet Jackson for infamously exposing her breast during their 2004 Super Bowl halftime show, saying he “benefitted from a system that condones misogyny and racism.”
Biel, 42, also has been a recipient of a public mea culpa from her husband, who was caught holding hands with his “Palmer” co-star Alisha Wainwright in 2019 during a drunken night out in New Orleans.
Timberlake acknowledged on social media at the time that he had “displayed a strong lapse in judgement [sic]” in an “embarrassing situation” but denied cheating on his wife.
