*If you happen to’re going to get arrested for DWI within the Hamptons, you would possibly as nicely make it a manufacturing. Fortunately for us—and unluckily for Justin Timberlake—the Sag Harbor Police Division has lastly launched the physique digicam footage from the pop star’s notorious June 2024 visitors cease, and it’s essentially the most entertainingly awkward factor to occur to the previous *NSYNC frontman since he introduced “ramen hair” again.
The video, launched to media retailers, begins with a police officer pulling Timberlake over for the cardinal sins of veering left and ignoring a cease signal.
“I’m on a World Tour. I’m Justin Timberlake.”
When the officer approaches, Timberlake instantly performs his one and solely card: fame.
“I’m on a world tour,” Timberlake declares, presumably hoping the rule of legislation bows to live performance schedules.
In case the officer missed the memo, he doubles down with the clarifying assertion, “I’m Justin Timberlake.”
Spoiler alert: The officer was not impressed by the discography.
Refusing the Breath Check: A Selection
What follows is a masterclass in how an evening can go from “World Tour” to “Again of a Squad Automobile.” Timberlake refuses a breath check—a call that, predictably, doesn’t enhance his state of affairs—and proceeds to fail a collection of standardized subject sobriety checks that seemingly gained’t make the lower for his subsequent tour interlude.
“You Love ‘Bye Bye Bye’—One Favor”
However the true scene-stealer isn’t JT. It’s his good friend, an unnamed lady who seems to consider that police process operates on a jukebox system.
As officers transfer to cuff the “Cry Me a River” singer, she unleashes essentially the most determined Hail Mary in authorized historical past.
“Cease it! No means! Don’t say it!” she pleads, earlier than pivoting to what she clearly thought was a successful argument: “You’re keen on ‘Bye Bye Bye,’ you’re on ‘SexyBack’—one favor.”
That’s proper. She tried to commerce *NSYNC nostalgia and a mid-2000s membership banger for a Get Out of Jail Free card. The officers, displaying the stoic resolve of males who’ve heard each excuse within the e-book, declined.
From Squad Automobile to Plea Deal
Timberlake was processed, later pleading responsible to a lowered cost of driving whereas impaired, leading to a advantageous and group service.
Earlier this month, Timberlake’s legal professionals tried to dam the discharge of this very footage, citing an “acutely susceptible state.” However due to a redacted model launched by way of settlement, we will all witness the second a world tour got here to a screeching halt at a cease signal.
The one factor lacking? A breathalyzer end result. However hey, that’s what mates are for—to ask the cops in the event that they like your biggest hits whilst you’re being handcuffed.
