Will King likes to parody songs from the ’90s, and his latest one turns *NSYNC’s Bye Bye Bye into a DUI.
Last week, the comedian released the first part of the song. It pretty much kept to the facts.
However, for the second part, he really went for it. And I have never seen him do that with any of his other parodies. I am so here for it.
It starts off simply; JT knew he shouldn’t drink or drive. But then…he brings up that the cop didn’t know who the singer was, ruined his failing tour, he’s no longer too good for his old band, and at least Britney Spears never got a DUI!
So, as King sits there wearing a hat, I am taking mine off to him!
In case you have not heard, Justin Timberlake was arrested on Tuesday morning on suspicion of DWI. And people have had a lot to say about it.
One of the people is comedic songwriter Will King, who is like Weird Al Yankovic with ’90s tunes. For his latest tune, he parodies *NSYNC’s Bye Bye Bye as DUI. And I can’t stop laughing.
The Selfish singer won’t find it funny, but we can!
Back in 2001, Justin Timberlake was too young to drink legally. Yesterday, he got in arrested on suspicion of drinking and driving illegally in Sag Harbor, NY.
Something that might not have happened had he paid better attention to the PSA he shot for Super Bowl XXXV with his *NYSYC bandmates about drinking responsibly.
But since he didn’t, he spent the night in jail and lost his driving rights in New York state for the immediate future.
So the moral of the story is don’t be like Justin in 2024, be like the one he was in 2001.
Let’s be honest. As soon as you heard that Justin Timberlake was arrested, you were like I can’t wait to see the mugshot. Well, it is here. And it is glorious!
What’s your favorite part about it?
Along with the mugshot, the Sag Harbor Police Department also shared the press release:
On June 18, 2024, at 12:37 AM, Justin R. Timberlake, age 43, of Tennessee, was observed operating a 2025 BMW southbound on Madison Street, failing to stop at a duly posted stop sign and failing to maintain his lane of travel. A traffic stop was initiated by a Police Officer from the Sag Harbor Village Police Department and upon investigation it was determined that Mr. Timberlake was operating his vehicle in an intoxicated condition. Mr. Timberlake was placed under arrest, processed, and held overnight for morning arraignment. Mr. Timberlake was arraigned at the Sag Harbor Village Justice Court on June 18, 2024, at 9:30 AM where he was released on his own recognizance.
A criminal charge is an accusation. A defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
Justin Timberlake made a surprise stop on his tour, and it is one he never wanted to make.
The singer was hanging out with friends at a hotel in Sag Harbor, NY, and was having some adult fun with them. Shortly after midnight, he left the hotel and was pulled over by some cops after blowing through a stop sign and not being able to drive in a straight line, according to TMZ.
The police report says the cops noticed, “His eyes were bloodshot and glassy, a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage was emanating from his breath, he was unable to divide attention, he had slowed speech, he was unsteady afoot, and he performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests.” It also says he claimed that he only had one martini.
His friends tried to get the cops to give him a break, but Page Six reports that the police officers were too young to know who he was.
The officers did not oblige their request and took him back to the station, where he was charged with DUI. After spending the night in jail, he was arraigned and free to go. However, he will need to return to NY on July 26th for his court day. He will not be able to drive himself there because his out-of-state license is suspended in New York.
Timberlake was expected to begin his European tour in Poland on the 26th, but I think that date will be postponed.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he asks *NSYNC to join him on the tour because he is going to need something positive to counter this, failing sales of his tour and album, and let’s not forget Britney Spears’ books. He is no longer as popular as he was when he exposed Janet Jackson’s boob at the Super Bowl.
