Justin Timberlake cancels show in New Jersey after suffering unknown injury

Justin Timberlake is apologizing to fans for canceling a concert in New Jersey due to an unknown injury.

The "Selfish" singer addressed the cancellation of his Newark, New Jersey, concert on Tuesday in an Instagram post.

"I'm so sorry to postpone tonight's show," Timberlake wrote on Instagram. "I have an injury that is preventing me from performing. I'm so disappointed to not see you all—but I'm working to reschedule ASAP." He told fans he would "make it up to you and give you the show y'all deserve."

He added a note of appreciation and thanked followers "for understanding" and "your support always."

The "Say Something" crooner is currently on his mammoth Forget Tomorrow World Tour, and is set to perform on Oct. 11 at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.

Last month, the "Mirrors" hitmaker pleaded guilty to a lesser charge following his June arrest in the Hamptons for driving while intoxicated. The Grammy winner pleaded guilty to driving while ability impaired, a noncriminal traffic violation.

"I try to hold myself to a very high standard. And this was not that," Timberlake told reporters outside the courtroom after the hearing. "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."

The singer's attorney, Edward Burke Jr., also told reporters, as he did back in July, that Timberlake was "not intoxicated" at the time of his DWI arrest. Burke said Timberlake didn't drink "other people's drinks" and only had "one drink in two hours."

Sag Harbor Village Justice Carl Irace also suspended the singer's driver's license in New York just weeks after the incident in Sag Harbor, New York, a village in The Hamptons about 100 miles from New York City.

Timberlake was pulled over in his 2025 BMW after failing to stop at a stop sign and "maintain his lane of travel."

"Upon investigation it was determined that Mr. Timberlake was operating his vehicle in an intoxicated position," according to the Sag Harbor Village Police Department.

In March, he released his sixth solo album "Everything I Thought It Was," with the lead single "Selfish." The album marked Timberlake's first since 2018's buzzy "Man of the Woods."
