Justin Timberlake publicly addressed his recent drunk-driving arrest for the first time during a Friday concert in Chicago. The 10-time Grammy winner admitted it had been a tough week, but thanked his fans for their unwavering support. This was his first performance since the Tuesday incident in the Hamptons, where he was arrested for failing to stop at a stop sign and exhibiting signs of intoxication. Timberlake, who has upcoming shows at Madison Square Garden, refused a breathalyzer test and is expected to appear virtually for his court hearing in July. His lawyer has stated that he plans to vigorously defend Timberlake against the allegations. The pop star's responsible drinking commercial with *NSYNC has resurfaced following the arrest, adding to the drama facing Timberlake and his wife Jessica Biel.
