The pop star’s lighthearted comment came as a shock to many, sparking laughter and conversation among the attendees.
Timberlake, known for his charismatic stage presence and hit songs, was performing at the TD Garden when he made the unexpected remark.

“So uh, is there anyone here tonight that is driving?” Timberlake asked the crowd, “I’m just kidding,” he continued after a pause. The audience erupted in laughter, catching on to the pop star’s veiled reference. (Source: PEOPLE)

On a serious note, he asked the audience, “Is there anyone here tonight, that it’s your first time here to the show? Is there anybody here that you’ve been to 1, 2, 3, maybe 4 of our shows?” The Palmer (2021) star also said, “For all of you that it’s your first time tonight — I hope that you feel the fellowship and the love.”
