Shock video shows moment Justin Timberlake screams at stage crew during concert meltdown as fans blast him
The viral clip shows the pop star initially trying to keep his cool after sound issues disrupted his performance of Cry Me a River.
Timberlake, 44, is seen calmly speaking to a crew member—who checks his watch, seemingly giving a time estimate for the fix.
But things take a turn fast.
When a second crew member approaches, Timberlake snaps—launching into a furious tirade that lasts several seconds.
At one point, the singer even slashes his hand across his neck in a dramatic 'cut it off' gesture before abruptly turning his back on the stunned team and storming away mid-show.

Critics didn't hold back.
'Losing it with your support crew is considered highly unprofessional in the world of stage performance,' one commenter blasted.
Another chimed in and said, 'He mad about anything and everything.'
One commenter argued Timberlake was 'justified' in being irritated with the crew, who had hours to prepare for the event.
Others said he was overreacting to a minor technical snafu, with one user saying Timberlake appeared to be 'mad about anything and everything' during his outing at the festival.
The most popular comment alluded to Timberlake's remark upon getting arrested for drunken driving in June of 2024 - as he said, ' This is going to ruin the tour.'
Fan feedback to the clip on the TikTok post was mixed, as some people said the Memphis, Tennessee native relatively kept his cool.
'He hardly looks like he's losing it,' one user said. 'Just annoyed. I would be too.'

Another user defended Timberlake's passion in wanting to put on the best possible show for his fans.
'I don't blame him for being a bit peeved he's trying to entertain his fans that paid money to see him,' said the user said.
One user credited Timberlake's attention to detail, saying that he 'probably saved everyone getting an earache.'
Another said that the pop veteran was 'an absolute star' as he took the stage at the summer music festival, calling him 'brilliant' and 'so professional.'
Said one user: 'He handled it well, for anyone who wasn't there, don't let this distract you.'
The SexyBack vocalist took to Instagram last week with a slideshow of images from the concert.
The former *NSYNC leading singer captioned the shot, 'Lytham, I LOVE Y'ALL!'
Timberlake is father to two sons with wife Jessica Biel, 43: Silas, 10, and Phineas, four.

Staffordshire influencer Scott DIY on TV's Can't Sell, Must Sell

Mr Baggaley hoped it would get renewed for a second told BBC Radio Stoke he had no idea how he would come across on TV, unlike on his social media accounts where he has full control."I've just got to watch it for the first time with everyone else," he worked in marketing for more than a decade, he decided it would be fun to document his own home renovation on Instagram, and soon found there was an appetite for the content."A lot of people do building work and it's all very interesting, but when somebody does a full house extension – without the knowledge, with a full-time job, a young family as well, and then sharing online – I think that story just hits for everyone."His story hit national newspapers, and he now regularly posts videos. He added: "I think a lot of people idolise being an influencer and gaining loads of followers – but at the back end of it is there's so much work."Once you've done the building work, and then you've done the content, and then you've posted it, there's a million and one DMs, comments - not all nice - it can be tricky."He said people who worked in the construction industry did not always react positively to amateurs giving it a try, and that he sometimes found it difficult to keep his work and personal life said it was a challenge to record videos without having his young son running across the background of his shots, but that he was grateful his family were supportive of his work.

I got kicked out of a Hilton hotel breakfast as my outfit was ‘inappropriate' – but my PJs were cuter than everyone else
A WOMAN has revealed that she was kicked out of the breakfast at a Hilton hotel because her outfit was "inappropriate." But Saffron Marie, 26, who stayed in the hotel for 'some self-care,' was shocked by the incident and believed she actually looked ' cuter ' than everyone else. 3 Posting on social media, the blonde beauty, who is from a council estate but often visits posh areas to look for rich men, curled her hair, did her make-up and put on a fresh set of black pyjamas to head downstairs to get some food. However, when she got there, prior to tucking into strawberry croissants and sausages, Saffron, who is from Brentwood, Essex, was asked to leave and get changed. Stunned by the situation, the exotic dancer showed off her black set of matching pyjamas, which she wore with a pair of flip flops. Alongside a caption that read 'Only me😂', Saffron said: 'I got chucked out of the Hilton Hotel at breakfast because of my outfit choice.' She then confirmed: 'I woke up nice and early, it was about 7:30am and I took myself down to the breakfast buffet. 'When I got there I was told I was dressed inappropriately - I think that's actually ridiculous because I look cuter than everyone there at breakfast.' Saffron, who has a partner in prison and eats takeaways every night, then went back to her room and switched to a cropped grey jumper with a matching pair of shorts. Following this, she continued: 'I quickly got changed but when I tell you, my going out shorts were shorter than my pyjamas anyway. 'The second outfit was actually worse than the first one.' The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ saffronmariexx, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as at the time of writing, it had quickly racked up 258,900 views. Controversial Teacher Outfits: Crossing the Line or Setting Trends? Not only this, but it had also amassed 10,300 likes, 341 comments and 164 shares. But social media users were gobsmacked by Saffron's decision to wear pyjamas to a hotel breakfast. I was told I was dressed inappropriately - I think that's actually ridiculous because I look cuter than everyone there at breakfast Saffron Marie One person asked: 'Why would you wear pyjamas?' Another slammed: 'Get a grip…you knew what you were doing, you wanted to provoke and get drama for 'the likes' and rage bait.' How to look chic on a budget Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger, and beauty journalist Samantha Silver revealed how you can make your outfits elevated without spending hundreds of pounds. Don't ever spend on designer denim: River Island ''always has such a great selection of fashion-forward jeans that follow the current trends''. The high street retailer offers a great range of sizes to fit UK 6 - UK 18, and three leg lengths - and prices start from an affordable £25. There are no rules for jewels: ''Pick up something at a car boot sale, or charity shop, scroll on Vinted & eBay, snap up something from the clothing section in your local supermarket when doing the food shop or check out high street clothing stores.'' Don't forget the pre-loved sites: With a rising number of second-hand sites, such as Vinted and Depop, there's no excuse for not buying - or selling - pre-loved garments. Gemma, for instance, has managed to get her hands on chic Chanel sunnies for a mere £17. A third commented: 'Maybe it's a class thing but I wouldn't dream of wearing that in public.' Meanwhile, someone else rudely wrote: 'Absolute someone had to spell it out that you shouldn't be coming down for breakfast in your pyjamas.' Not only this, but another penned: 'Wearing PJ's in a public place… unacceptable behaviour. Making a video because you're in the wrong, unacceptable behaviour, get a grip.' Whilst someone else explained: 'I think it's a hygiene thing rather than a revealing element.'

Christine McGuinness looks stunning in tight crop top as she heads to the shops after fling with soap star is revealed
CHRISTINE McGuinness oozed glam in a tight-fit green top as she ran errands in Cheshire. The Real Housewives of Cheshire alum opted for the figure-hugging vest which flashed her curves and clung to her toned stomach paired with linen trousers. 6 6 6 Christine, 37, threw a red holdall over her shoulder and carried a dark jacket in her hand as she took a stroll in the sunshine. The mum of three pulled on a pair of sunglasses and padded around in a pair of trainers after parking up her car. The ITVBe star looked happy and carefree after The Sun revealed her fling with a leading soap actress this month. SOAP STAR FLING We exclusively reported how Christine and the actress exchanged messages in the days after but their brief romance quickly fizzled out. Their encounter came in 2023, the year after mum-of-three Christine split from her ex-Top Gear host husband, Paddy McGuinness, 51. A source said: 'Christine was single at the time and they really enjoyed the evening of the awards bash. There was a strong chemistry between them and they shared some messages but it never went any further after that.' The well-known actress, whom we are not naming, has previously been in relationships with men. Christine spoke out about her sexuality for the first time last month, revealing she has dated both sexes since she was a teen. Speaking on the How To Fail podcast, she said: 'I'm at the point where I think I've got a nice balance of going, 'Yeah I date women and so what? What's the big deal?' 'But also knowing I don't have to go into big, massive detail about it either. Christine McGuinness dazzles in bright blue bikini as she shrugs off quitting Celebs Go Dating after just a week 'A lot of people ask me, 'Are you a lesbian? Are you bisexual? Is this a phase?'. 'I've always been quite a free spirit. I think that's the only word I would put on it. 'When I was a teenager, I'd dated boys and girls. I never felt it was anything different or a big deal.'

Months after their marriage ended, Christine was pictured kissing singer Chelcee Grimes, 33.
