Justin Timberlake had a memorable performance the other night in Nashville Tennessee. Although not for the reason you may expect. Unfortunately the star suffered a sort of wardrobe malfunction while performing onstage. While his vocals were on full display, so was a certain appendage.

Justin Timberlake Wardrobe Malfunction Steals The Show
I can tell you with earnest that no one is remembering the songs Justin sang at his most recent concert at the Bridgestone Arena. Instead, fans' attention were directed elsewhere. Somewhere, lower than his mouth that was singing the vocals.
While performing on stage Justin Timberlake was strapped into a harness, no doubt for some sort of special effect movements he was doing. Although I am sure that the harness was keeping him safe during whatever maneuver he needed it for, it did not keep him safe from fans' prying eyes or the internets comments.
You see, the harness was especially tight on his legs, highlighting his groin area. Thus meaning that his appendage down south was on full display for the audience. One concert-goer filmed a TikTok video of the event, which has now been viewed over 7 million times, according to the NY Post.
The note over the video was seemingly inconspicuous. It read, "Saw Justin Timberlake in Nashville last night." Although as soon as the video started, it was clear that this woman saw more of him than most of us were expecting.
The Internet Is Ruthless
Honestly, I feel bad for the guy. I know you sign up for the unfiltered comments and constant opinions when you are famous, but this is just horrible. Don't get me wrong it is also insanely hilarious, but I cannot imagine the embarrassment poor Justin Timberlake is feeling today after his wardrobe malfunction went viral.
Some of the comments kept it PG. They said things like:
"The way my jaw dropped. Honey NO ONE TOLD HIM during rehearsals? Oof"
"The way he tugged his shirt to cover it."
"It's like he felt us staring when you zoomed bc he immediately started grabbing down on his shirt??"
Then others held absolutely nothing back as they completely roasted the pop star.
"He hits the high notes and we now know why."
"Hard to find...... he sang it himself!!! ??."
"Brining micro back."
"A confirmation I didn't need but a confirmation nonetheless ??."
"About what I had imagined. ??"
"Not him singing "Hard to find" while you zoom innnnn ???."
"He does give this energy."
While I won't deny the chuckles I got from reading some of these ruthless comments, I cannot help but feel some sympathy as well. After all, are we not taught from a young age not to judge someone based on physical characteristics? Unfortunately, after this wardrobe malfunction, I don't think Justin Timberlake will ever be living this moment down. I have a nagging suspicion that the harness will not be making a comeback in future shows.
