Justin Timberlake’s concert wardrobe malfunction goes viral for a NSFW reason: WATCH

Fans were looking directly at Justin Timberlake’s other half after a stage malfunction during one of his concerts drew too much below-the-belt attention.

The Grammy-winning singer, who is currently on his bestselling Forget Tomorrow world tour, continued business as usual during his Dec. 12 performance at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. However, a wardrobe malfunction resulting from a tight-fitting harness went viral.

In a TikTok video filmed by a concert-goer, Timberlake, 43, is seen trying to navigate the harness, and we’re all gushing over the fact that it seemingly inadvertently highlighted his groin.

In the clip, Timberlake can be seen pulling at the bottom of his shirt to cover the area.

The harness is used for his performance of “Mirrors,” in which he sings over the crowd on a floating platform.

The comments section of the video, which has reached 5.5 million views at the time of writing, included a few jokes comparing Timberlake’s mishap to a malfunction Chris Brown had during one of his 11:11 tour shows in Canada last summer.

However, comments referring to “Chris Brown in a harness” did not elaborate on the incident Daily Mail reported an accident that highlighted Brown’s “masculinity.” The Hollywood Reporter shared a video of the singer hanging in the air in the middle of a concert.

Timberlake has not yet commented on the disturbance or the video.
