Justin Timberlake won’t be bringing “SexyBack” to the stage tonight… because the pop icon has been sidelined by a brutal case of the flu, forcing him to cancel his highly anticipated show in Columbus, Ohio.
The Cry Me a River singer took to Instagram on Thursday evening to share the disappointing news with fans, expressing heartbreak over the last-minute decision. Timberlake revealed he struggled to even get through soundcheck, ultimately making it impossible for him to perform.
He assured fans that full refunds would be issued and apologized to his dedicated supporters, as well as his hardworking team, for the unexpected cancellation.
While many fans flooded social media with well-wishes for his speedy recovery, others voiced frustration… especially since this marks the second time Timberlake has had to cancel a performance. It remains unclear when he first fell ill, but it’s evident that he wasn’t in any condition to take the stage.
