Justin Timberlake reportedly remains in police custody.
Justin Timberlake was arrested for driving while intoxicated in the Hamptons on Monday night, a spokesperson for Sag Harbor Police told CNN as well as other outlets. PEOPLE reports he was driving after a dinner at the American Hotel in the area. As of Tuesday morning, he remains in police custody. Authorities plan on releasing a statement on the matter later today. The singer has yet to comment. The arrest comes as he is currently on tour to promote his most recent album, Everything I Thought It Was.
When social media caught wind of the news, fans had mixed responses. In the comments section of a post from The Shade Room, one user wrote: “All these taxi-services & ride apps in 2024, it should be no reason why folks should drink and drive…smh.” Another top comment argued: “All of y’all that wanna cancel JT, WHEN was the last time you got an Uber or Lyft for yourself when you got drunk?! Unless you can answer that, then SHUT UP!!”
