Justin Timberlake praises his 'two dads' in heartwarming tribute as he leads stars celebrating Father's Day
Justin Timberlake gave a shout out to both of the father figures in his life - dad Charles Randall Timberlake and stepdad Paul Harless - in a heartwarming tribute he shared on Father's Day.
In an epic throwback, the 44-year-old pop star Instastoried a snap of himself decked out in Star Search-era Western wear while posing with the Baptist church choir director, who divorced his mother Janet Harless in 1985.
One year later, Janet wed Paul, so Justin made sure to post a snap of his stepdad with his 10-year-old son Silas in the tribute.
Timberlake shared a third snap of one of his dads playing golf with what appeared to be his four-year-old son Phineas.
The 10-time Grammy winner also posted a rare Instagram slideshow of himself embracing little Silas and Phineas.
'There's no bigger reward or responsibility that I have ever felt in my life above being a father. To teach and to learn at the same time… I feel beyond blessed,' Justin - who boasts 193.8M social media followers - gushed on Sunday.
'I see my two dads, my grandfathers, [and] my uncles more and more clearly every year that I get to experience this life with them. And I see myself more and more clearly in every moment I have with my sons, watching who they continue to become.
'You can't put a price tag on that type of generational wealth! Here's to all the Dads out there! Cheers! Happy Father's Day!'
Timberlake's wife of 12 years - Jessica Biel - reposted his slideshow with the caption: 'Happy Father's Day to the best dad out there. We love you so much!'
The 43-year-old Better Sister actress also Instastoried a snap of herself with the No Angels singer and their son Phineas captioned: 'Celebrating you today and every day!'
Last month, Jessica said she planned on 'taking the kids' so he 'can just go have a great' Father's Day and, considering Justin was in Denmark on Saturday, he's definitely in Europe.
'Justin loves to golf, so I hope he gets to golf that day,' Biel told E! News.
'And of course it's fun to spend time with your kids, but from everything I know about Mother's Day where you just really need a break and want a solo break, I will take the kids.'
Timberlake - who gets 44.5M monthly listeners on Spotify - is next scheduled to bring his $205.2M-grossing, 122-date The Forget Tomorrow World Tour to Poland's PGE Narodowy in Warsaw this Tuesday.

John Travolta transforms into Grease character Danny Zuko for sing-along event
John Travolta gave fans the 'chills' when he made a surprise appearance at a Grease sing-along in Los Angeles on Friday night. The actor, 71, stepped back in time to reprise his role as Danny Zuko from the 1978 hit musical. She shared on social media: 'Tonight at the Hollywood Bowl, for the first time I surprised everyone at the Grease sing-along and dressed up as Danny Zuko.' Go, greased lightnin': He reprised his role as Danny Zuko from the 1978 hit musical He added: 'No one knew. Not even the cast. Thank you for a great evening.' He adopted his character's swagger as he stepped on stage wearing dark jeans, a tight black T-shirt, and a black leather jacket. The actor, who has been sporting a shaved head, wore a wig styled into a greaser-friendly ducktail, along with a scruffy beard. He then joined Grease cast members Didi Conn, Barry Pearl, Michael Tucci, Kelly Ward, and director Randal Kleiser on stage. Taking the microphone, Travolta delivered some of his iconic lines from the moment Danny reunites with his Summer Nights sweetheart Sandy (played by the late Olivia Newton-John) on the first day of school at Rydell High. 'I thought you were going back to Australia!' and then remembering he was the big man on campus, dropped into the nonchalant, 'that's cool, that's cool, that's cool baby,' I'm rockin' and rollin' and whatnot.' He then led the cast and audience in a chant of 'A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-lop-bam-boom!' Standing in front of a big screen, he then told the crowd, 'Enjoy the show. We love you!'

Soccer culture clash at Club World Cup as American woman reports Argentine fans to cops over 'throwing beer and shoving' - but they say SHE was wrong
A clash of cultures erupted at Seattle's Lumen Field during the Club World Cup as an American woman reported a group of Argentine fans to stadium staff and police. The tensions occurred during Inter Milan 's 2-0 victory over River Plate earlier in the week - a match that was heated on the pitch as well, with the Buenos Aires side receiving two red cards and six booking issued in total. The woman described being surrounded by River fans who refused to respect assigned seating and crowded into her section in raucous fashion. She explained on social media that the situation turned physical when she confronted the fans, claiming they threw beer on her and shoved her boyfriend away. She called security, and eventually local police arrived to intervene. The woman could be heard screaming in a video uploaded on TikTok: 'This is our seat, we paid for the seat.' One of the River fans responded: 'We paid too,' before the American woman demanded they showed their tickets. @_jung_kook_wifey We approach them with our tickets in our hand and they're like 'there's no assigned seats' like we don't go to almost every Sounder game and know the drill. They got aggressive real quick throwing beer and shoving my bf and pulling my hair. #ClubWorldCup ♬ original sound - lou ❀𓇼𓏲☘︎ River Plate fans ignored ticket allocations and sat in her set, leading to a heated confrontation The woman alleged that beer was thrown on her hair and that her boyfriend was shoved away The River fan then said: 'You can sit anywhere, it doesn't matter [about] your ticket,' much to the woman's frustration, who insisted again: 'It does. This is our seat, we paid for the seat.' In South American football culture, supporters often cluster together and ignore seat assignments on their tickets. The woman recognised this, but argued that these norms do not override the fact she paid for a specific seat. She wrote on TikTok: 'I can support futbol culture but that does not mean disregarding the stadium's rules or jurisdiction. 'This was not a general admission event! Otherwise, tickets would have been priced THE SAME. 'Choosing to ignore assigned seating - and worse, attempting to physically intimidate or assault others out of their PAID spaces - is not only entitled, it's unlawful. 'You cannot assault your way into getting what you want just because you are not 'used to the customs set in place.' However, many fans under the woman's video did not extend any sympathy, arguing she should have been prepared for a culture clash before buying her tickets. The woman went on to accuse one fan of swearing and smoking a cigarette in the ground One fan commented: 'In South America your ticket gets you into the stands and no seat allocation as no one sits down anyway. The seats are a free for fall, if you come late. You lose out. So happy Americans are getting a taste of real football.' Another wrote: 'That's how it works in ultras sector. You should know that before you buy tickets.' A third said: 'To be fair in South America and many countries, seat allocations don't matter. You sit where there's space.' The woman shared more details of the incident in another slideshow on TikTok, where she went on to reveal that one man was also swearing at her and smoking a cigarette in the ground.

The former first lady appeared on NPR 's 'Wild Card' podcast with Rachel Martin on Thursday (26 June) where she shared her mother's comments about the fleeting nature of time. 'She leaned over to me and said, 'Wow, this went fast'', Ms Obama recalled, saying that she was shocked as her mother 'was the woman that prepared me for death'. "And what that told me is even when you tell yourself you're ready, if you're living a good life, you're never really ready for it to end,' she said. 'So I hope I feel that way. Even though I've been ready for it, because it's been good and purposeful. That I'll feel like, 'I wish I had more time.' So I'm trying to live my life like that." Ms Obama's mother, Marian Robinson, died at age 86 in May 2024.
