Justin Timberlake cancels another show due to back injury: 'I'm so sorry'

Justin Timberlake has canceled another show on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour.

The "Can't Stop the Feeling!" singer, 43, announced Saturday on Instagram that he is canceling a performance in Oklahoma City that was scheduled for Monday on doctor's orders.

"I'm so sorry Oklahoma City," he wrote. "I have to cancel the show on 12/2. I hurt my back in NOLA and my doctors have instructed me to rest a little bit longer."

Timberlake, who performed in New Orleans on Nov. 25, added, "Thank you for your support — y'all know I hate doing this."

Timberlake has canceled shows on his tour multiple times over the past two months.

In October, the 10-time Grammy winner scrapped a concert in Newark, New Jersey, telling fans that he had "an injury that is preventing me from performing." He said he was "so disappointed" but was working to find a new date, and the show was rescheduled for a week later.

Later in October, Timberlake postponed six shows in Chicago, Grand Rapids, Detroit, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Columbus due to a separate health issue. The concerts, originally set for October and November, were rescheduled for February.

"I haven't been feeling great the last few shows and turns out I have bronchitis and laryngitis," the singer said at the time.

Timberlake has been performing on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour since April and has shows scheduled through next summer.

In June, he was arrested in New York for driving while intoxicated. Timberlake pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of driving while ability impaired, a noncriminal traffic violation, in September. He agreed to pay a fine and perform community service.

"I try to hold myself to a very high standard. And this was not that," Timberlake told reporters. "I'd like to say to everyone watching and listening, even if you had one drink, don't get behind the wheel of a car. There's so many alternatives. Call a friend, take an Uber."
