Justin Timberlake is doing his best to divert negative attention from himself. The pop singer’s reputation took a hit following an arrest for allegedly Driving While Intoxicated (DWI). Aligning himself with another pop star who has a troubled past appears to be the former NSYNC member’s way of distracting the public from his previous DWI according to insiders.
He is said to be “using” Justin Bieber’s name to shield the public from his embarrassing past. Justin recently sent a heartfelt message to the Canadian online community expressing admiration for how far the latter has come. Insiders say that JT’s post “draws focus away from Timberlake’s own recent troubles.”
Justin Bieber’s Coachella performance earned Justin Timberlake’s seal of approval
Critics are seeing right through Justin’s love for The Biebs. In a post directed at him, the Cry Me a River singer said, “I’m proud of you – and you should be proud of you too.” This exchange came as Justin Bieber wowed audiences as one of the headliners at Coachella. The 32-year-old Justin has had his share of run-ins with the law and issues with substance abuse in the past.
The timing of the 45-year-old’s message is particularly suspicious for many. It came weeks after the actor from The Social Network had a 2024 DWI arrest video surface. An insider told RadarOnline, “You can’t go from an arrest to this type of cutesy content online and expect people to forget your scandals.”
Veering the public away from his prior DWI arrest appears to be top of mind for Justin. In March, he joked about it. He took humor in the fact that his personal information on his police paperwork listed him as white.
Not everyone believes JT’s praise for Justin was a calculated decision. One industry insider insists that the Rock Your Body singer has always been supportive of Justin. Coachella tickets skyrocketed when videos leaked of the Biebs rehearsing some of his classic tunes from yesteryear.
