Justin Randall Timberlake (born January 31, 1981), occasionally known by his initials JT, is an American singer, songwriter, actor, dancer, and record producer.
Raised in Tennessee, he appeared on the television shows Star Search and The All-New Mickey Mouse Club as a child. In the late 1990s, Timberlake rose to prominence as one of the two lead vocalists and youngest member of NSYNC, which eventually became one of the best-selling boy bands of all time.
Timberlake began to adopt a more mature image as an artist with the release of his debut solo album, the R&B-focused Justified (2002), which yielded the successful singles "Cry Me a River" and "Rock Your Body", and earned his first two Grammy Awards.

What will happen is a fine of up to $500 dollars.”Timberlake, 43, is in “good hands,” Brown said, noting the star’s attorney is “a very good attorney, very-well known, established with the DAs in Suffolk County.”A favorable outcome in the case wouldn’t be because of Timberlake’s celebrity status, though, Brown — who worked as a prosecutor in the Suffolk County District Attorney’s office from 1992 to 1995 — said.“I don’t think [the DA’s Office] will make an example of him nor will they be more lenient.
I think the case will rise and fall on the merits of the case,” he said.But Brown warned that the office is known for being “fairly tough” in cases where people refuse to take a Breathalyzer test.“We all have a job to do” he noted.Police said the “SexyBack” artist refused to take a Breathalyzer and showed signs of being drunk when he was stopped for blowing through a stop sign and swerving on the road while driving a grey 2025 BMW.
Timberlake, a married dad of two who has acknowledged previous issues with “excessive drinking,” was released without bail after his arraignment later Tuesday morning on a misdemeanor charge of driving while intoxicated.
