Justin Timberlake Shares Tour Update After Reaching Deal in DWI Case

Nothing’s going to ruin the tour. The world tour.

Days after reaching a plea deal in his DWI case, Justin Timberlake chatted with his longtime pal Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show.

“You’re well liked here,” the late night host assured Timberlake during the Sept. 16 episode. “Congrats on the tour, by the way, the world tour.”

The “Selfish” singer announced that the tour has added 10 dates, and shared about his excitement over Fallon attending the Brooklyn, New York show where he teased the comedian would take the stage for a 15-minute set.

“I can’t wait for you to come to the show,” Timberlake, 43, told Fallon, 49, “because it will complete the tour.”

However, Fallon had an unusual request for attending the show.

“When I come to see you, can I request something? I want to not see you,” Fallon told his shocked-looking pal. “I want to be in a seat. No, no, no, I want to see you. I want to watch you, but you give me too good of seats.”

The Saturday Night Live alum explained that because he received the VIP treatment, he was often too close to the former *NSYNC star’s face.

“I don’t know what to do with myself. Then people were looking at me and they’re like, ‘Is he going to dance?’ I don’t dance,” Fallon quipped before referencing his interactions with Timberlake’s wife Jessica Biel, noting, “I just stand there. I bore your wife. I’m like, ‘Hey, how’s it going?’ She leaves me.”

He concluded, “It’s too much pressure for me.”

Timberlake laughed at the request, asking, “Do you want to not come to the show?”

“I want to come,” Fallon insisted before pretending to get choked up and adding, “it’s just that I have feelings and I need you to respect that.”

Amidst his world tour, the “Cry Me a River” singer has been dealing with the legal fallout of his June 18 arrest for driving while intoxicated. On Sept. 13, he pleaded guilty to a noncriminal traffic violation of driving while impaired, according to NBC News. He has agreed to pay a minimal fine and complete 25 to 40 hours of community service.

“As you may know, I try to hold myself to a very high standard for myself,” he said in a press conference at the time. “And this was not that. I found myself in a position where I could have made a different decision, but I’ve had some time to reflect on that.”

“This is a mistake that I made," he added, "but I hope whoever is watching and listening right now can learn from this mistake, I know that I certainly have.”
