Justin Timberlake addressed fans once again following his DWI arrest in Sag Harbor, New York.
The 43-year-old The Mirrors hitmaker – who reportedly ‘panicked and stayed up all night’ while in custody – thanked the crowd for their support during the controversy during his second Forget Tomorrow World Tour tour in Chicago.
‘This [tour] is just something that continues to watch over me, more so on this tour than any other,” Justin began, according to reports. “And that is that all of us here tonight in this room, tonight in this arena, grew up together. A lot of you come up to me and say, “I grew up with you, man.”
He continued, “I want you all to know that I grew up with you. You guys have been such a big and beautiful part of my life and sometimes I can’t find the words to express my gratitude that you just keep riding with me and riding with me.
“And from the bottom of my heart, I want you to know that I will never forget all of you until I am somewhere beyond this earth,” he added. ‘You made my life so special. And tonight in Chicago you made us feel loved.”

The former *NSYNC member had broken his silence the night before.
‘It’s been a tough week. I know it’s hard to love me sometimes, but you’ll still love me,” he told the Chicago audience during the concert.
Justin’s next concert will take place on June 25 at Madison Square Garden, where he will entertain the crowd for two consecutive nights.
The pop star was taken into custody and then released on June 18 after being charged with driving under the influence in Sag Harbor, New York, following an incident the night before.

His next court appearance is scheduled for July 26 and will take place virtually.
