Justin Timberlake sends internet into frenzy after NSFW video goes viral

Justin Timberlake fans have been going wild on social media after a video of the singer on tour went viral.

Timberlake, 43, who is currently on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, was performing at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee when he suffered a NSFW wardrobe malfunction.

During one song, Timberlake had to wear a harness, which ended up accentuating one part of his body in particular.

The moment was shared by TikToker @jettymay - and people can't stop talking about the clip.

"The way he tugged his shirt to cover it," wrote one.

While another added: "The way my jaw dropped. Honey NO ONE TOLD HIM during rehearsals?"

And a third said: "I love this for him so much."

But others weren't happy with the comments, with one adding: "The comments shock me. You should be ashamed of yourselves for this disrespect. He is a human being and has feelings too!"

Other people compared the video to a viral moment involving Chris Brown, in which the singer also wore a harness at a concert back in June.

Timberlake has been on tour since April, but the string of shows had a bit of a rocky start, after he was forced to postpone one performance just an hour before it started.

The show, which was taking place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, was rescheduled to a later date.

“I’m so disappointed not to see you all, but I’m working to reschedule ASAP,” Timberlake explained on social media.

“I promise to make it up to you and give you the show y’all deserve. Thank you guys for understanding. Appreciate your support always.”

Timberlake was later diagnosed with bronchitis and laryngitis, which meant he had to postpone six of his shows scheduled for October to a later date.

Bronchitis and laryngitis impact the respiratory system and the voice box, making it impossible for the singer to perform.

Just a few weeks later in December, Timberlake also had to postpone a show due to a back injury.

It's certainly been a dramatic year for the singer.

Back in September, Timberlake pleaded guilty to impaired driving, after he was arrested in the Hamptons on a driving while intoxicated charge.

The presiding judge handed the 'Cry Me A River' singer a fine of $500 (£380) along with a $260-dollar surcharge (£198), and 25 hours of community service at a non-profit of his choice.

Speaking during the proceeding, Timberlake said: "I did not live up to the standards that I try to hold for myself.

"I should’ve had better judgment. I understand the seriousness of this.”
