Justin Timberlake apologizes outside courthouse after taking plea deal in DWI case: ‘This is a mistake that I made’

Justin Timberlake issued a court-ordered apology on Friday after accepting a plea deal for his DWI case.

 

 

“This is a mistake that I made but I’m hoping that whoever is watching and listening right now can learn from this mistake,” Timberlake told reporters outside the Sag Harbor courthouse.

 

 

“Even one drink — don’t get behind the wheel of the car.”

 

Earlier in the day, the “Mirrors” crooner pleaded guilty to an impaired driving traffic violation (DWAI), which is not a criminal offense in comparison to his original DWI charge.
A ccording to legal experts, the main difference between a DWAI and DWI is the level of intoxication.

A judge ordered the pop star, 43, to pay a $500 fine, perform 25 hours of community service at a nonprofit and appear in a public service announcement on the dangers of drunk driving, according to ABC News.

Timberlake arrived at the courthouse early Friday morning wearing brown trousers, a black T-shirt and a matching cardigan.
During the hearing, Timberlake admitted he had a lot of “time to reflect” following his June arrest. The singer said he is filled with “disappointment” in himself and knows he “did not live up to the standard I hold myself to,” per People.

“I found myself in a position where I should’ve taken a moment,” she said in the courtroom. “I understand and appreciate the seriousness of this.”

The hitmaker also took “a moment to show gratitude to everybody involved” and apologized for putting a “strain” on the small town.
After news of his plea deal broke earlier this week, Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney told Page Six that Timberlake’s case was handled with the same amount of care as any other offender.
The one thing that we want to make sure we’re doing is… being consistent, and we don’t want to treat any defendant better than others because of, you know, because of any perceived notoriety they may have,” Tierney told us.

“But we certainly don’t want to treat people worse for the same reason,” he added. “So we’re taking pains to make sure that we’re treating this case like any other case of its kind.”

The hitmaker was arrested in June after he allegedly ran a stop sign and swerved between lanes after drinking with a few friends at a popular bar in the Hamptons.
However, Timberlake later claimed he only had one martini, a sentiment dittoed by his lawyer, Edward Burke Jr.

Burke claimed the “SexyBack” singer was “not intoxicated” at the time of his arrest and that “police made a number of very significant errors in this case.”

Despite being reprimanded for his comments, the high-powered attorney was able to negotiate the original charges.

Elon Musk: “I’d Rather Break My Leg Than See Taylor Swift During An NFL Game

Elon Musk: “I’d Rather Break My Leg Than See Taylor Swift During An NFL Game

In a surprising revelation on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, Elon Musk commented on pop superstar Taylor Swift’s recent appearances at NFL games, stating, “I’d rather break my leg than see Taylor Swift during an NFL game.” The billionaire and tech tycoon’s comment quickly became one of the platform’s top trending topics, with fans and critics alike weighing in on the unexpected sentiment.

 

Since Elon Musk’s $44bn acquisition of X last year, the platform has undergone a series of notable changes, from overhauling the verification system to the reinstatement of former US President Donald Trump. Musk has not only gutted trust and safety teams but also installed a new CEO, former NBCUniversal executive Linda Yaccarino, making his influence felt in both operational and content aspects of the platform. With this fresh comment about Swift, Musk further establishes his fearless approach to sharing personal opinions on X, regardless of public perception.

Taylor Swift, meanwhile, has recently become a regular face at NFL games, particularly at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs. Her budding relationship with the Chiefs’ All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce has drawn considerable media attention. Swift’s appearances at these games, coupled with her high-profile relationship, have drawn an avalanche of media attention and a significant increase in game viewership. An average of nearly 27 million viewers tuned into the Chiefs-Jets game, hoping to catch a glimpse of the music icon.

Musk’s comment on Swift’s NFL appearances has predictably divided opinions on X. Supporters of the “Shake It Off” singer were quick to defend her, criticizing Musk for his seemingly unprovoked remark. Others opined that the tech mogul’s comment was perhaps in jest or simply reflective of his known penchant for sparking internet debates.

Regardless of Musk’s intentions, his statement has reignited discussions about celebrity involvement in sports and the cultural impact of such appearances. As the NFL capitalizes on Swift’s newfound passion for the game, Musk’s provocative comment ensures that the intersection of pop culture, sports, and technology remains as dynamic and unpredictable as ever.

In a world where every tweet can spark a global conversation, it remains to be seen if Swift will respond to Musk’s remark or if the NFL will weigh in on the matter. What is certain, however, is that the lines between entertainment sectors continue to blur, and public figures like Musk and Swift are at the forefront of this evolving narrative
