In body cam video from his June 2024 DWI arrest in Sag Harbor, NY—as seen in our ongoing coverage—Justin Timberlake quips about being listed as 'white' on forms, expresses shock at spending the night in jail, and seeks clarification on charges.
Darlings, more juicy details from Justin Timberlake's Sag Harbor DWI body cam footage have surfaced! 😲 Building on the recently released video (check our prior coverage for sobriety tests and his friend's *NSYNC pleas), JT brings his signature humor even in cuffs. When officers marked him as 'white' on the paperwork, he cheekily questioned it, scoring laughs amid the tension. 😂
The mood shifted as he learned he'd be locked up overnight—dropping his head in disbelief when confirmed. Confusion reigned: JT asked officers to repeat the arrest reason (driving while intoxicated after running a stop sign, swerving, and field tests), while the cop seemed oblivious to arresting a Grammy winner mid-'Forget Tomorrow World Tour.' No tour excuses swayed them! 🚔
As previously reported, JT's September 2024 plea deal reduced it to a noncriminal violation: $500 fine, 25 hours community service, 90-day license suspension, and a drunk driving PSA. Iconic bounce-back or lesson learned? 👀 Part of our Justin Timberlake DWI body cam footage series.
