Justin Timberlake shared the moment Travis Kelce made him fly during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on NBC on Thursday.
The 42-year-old singer put his bromance with Jimmy, 49, on full display while promoting his upcoming sixth studio album, having previously released his new single Selfish.
“I’ve never seen anyone work harder on anything in my life than you do on this album,” Jimmy said after Justin revealed he’s been working on his album Everything I Thought It Was for four years.
“The only thing I’m working harder on is our relationship,” Justin joked.
Jimmy later brought up a golf tournament in Las Vegas he played with Justin against Kansas City Chiefs stars Travis, 34, and Patrick Mahomes, 28.

‘So much fun. I had the best time. Remember when I hit that bunker shot?’ Jimmy asked.
“How could I forget?” Justin said.
Jimmy remembered playing “normally” and trying to hit out of the bunker.
They then reenacted the moment with Justin standing behind Jimmy as he pretended to play golf.
“Yeah, no, I was like, ‘Okay, open up your position a little bit. Yeah, dig your feet in the sand, okay, now that you see your club face, you wanna open it up,” Justin said.
‘I know, Justinus. Just let me play, just let me play. Just let me play, dude,” Jimmy said as he relived the moment.
Jimmy then asked to play the clip and it showed him hitting the golf ball from the bunker into the hole.
Justin asked for a replay showing himself in orange shorts and reacting to the shot.

“I haven’t run that fast since,” Justin said as the replay showed him dropping his bat and running wildly in celebration.
“Is that Travis?”, Jimmy said as he pointed out that Travis was lifting him into the air.
“Even the other team supported me, that’s how bad I am,” Jimmy said.
Justin then asked if the video was going to continue because Travis had his “life flashing before my eyes.”
The singer explained that Travis went to him to give him a celebratory jumping body bump and he realized he had to do it.
“I forgot he weighs 80 pounds more than me,” Justin said.
Justin and Jimmy asked if they had any extended footage and a video showed Travis running towards Justin and both jumping into each other.
Travis stayed upright, but Justin immediately fell down and rolled backwards from the contact.
