Justin Timberlake has been forced to reschedule six of his upcoming shows on his US leg of the world tour after not ‘feeling great’.
The 43-year-old singer has moved yet more gigs after being diagnosed with both bronchitis and laryngitis, which impact the airways and vocal box.
He apologised to fans with tickets to his next six scheduled shows as he announced he would be moving the gigs to a later date.
Now, Justin will resume his Forget Tomorrow World Tour in November after two weeks rest to recover his voice.
Taking to Instagram to reveal the newly rescheduled dates, the Cry Me A river singer said: ‘Hey guys – I haven’t been feeling great the last few shows and turns out I have bronchitis and laryngitis.
‘I’m so sorry to say I do need to reschedule the next few shows from 10/23 through 11/2. New dates listed above.’
He added: ‘Thank you for understanding – I’ll make it up to you ❤️🩹 – JT.’
The shows in Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Ohio have been moved to February next year instead.
Justin’s tour began in April although it has been plagued by issues such as his drunk driving arrest and an injury that threw plans up in the air.
On October 9, he cancelled his show at New Jersey’s Prudential Centre at the last minute suffering from an unnamed injury that prevented performing.
Earlier this year, in June, he was arrested for an intoxicated driving offence in New York.
This sparked huge interest, partly as PageSix claimed the arresting officer ‘didn’t recognise’ the Trolls star ‘or his name’, resulting in a meme online.
A source told the outlet: ‘Justin said under his breath, “This is going to ruin the tour.” The cop replied, “What tour?” Justin said, “The world tour”.’
In September, Justin pleaded guilty to the less serious traffic offence of driving while impaired, which is non-criminal.
He has been ordered to pay a $500 (£380) fine with a $260 (£200) surcharge, do 25 hours of community service and make a public safety announcement.
The world tour is scheduled to return to Europe next year, with dates listed all the way up until May 2025.
