Justin Timberlake, a 43-year-old singer known for his hit song "Cry Me A River," has recently revealed plans for a big upcoming tour that will include shows in the United Kingdom. The purpose of this tour is to promote his upcoming album, which is titled Everything I Thought It Was.
The previous week, he informed fans in the United Kingdom that they had an opportunity to witness his live performance at a single night show in London's Roundhouse situated in Camden. However, this was only possible if they managed to get hold of a free ticket in the raffle draw.
Just under a day before the performance, Timberlake informed his fans that the concert was called off due to him "fighting off some form of illness."
In a recent post shared on Instagram on Thursday evening (February 23rd), he expressed his disappointment saying, "It is sad that I have to post this video. However, I am sure you have heard from the audio that I cannot make it to the show on Friday. I feel terrible about it."
I have been spending my entire week in London and I had great enthusiasm to do my performance at Roundhouse. All of a sudden, I fell ill and start fighting with the sickness. Initially, I thought that it was improving, but unfortunately, it turned out to be even more dreadful.
He wrote a statement stating that he has the flu and is very disappointed that he has to complete this task.
Last week, Justin Timberlake made an appearance on 'The Graham Norton Show.'
During the Friday night presentation of The Graham Norton Show (16 February), Timberlake acknowledged that he had some difficulty making it to the show but was able to persevere.

On Thursday, he informed his supporters that he was feeling "awful" about pulling out of the Roundhouse performance. Additionally, he expressed his desire for none of his followers to contract the same flu he had.

Timberlake recently gave a sneak peek of his upcoming album, Everything I Thought It Was. He has also shared two new songs, namely "Selfish" and "Drown".
The singer of the song "Mirrors" unexpectedly put on a single show at Irving Plaza in the city of New York last month.
At a unique performance in New York City, Timberlake stopped singing to talk to the audience. He openly stated that he had no apologies to offer to anyone, saying "absolutely f***ing nobody".
Several days later, his former partner Britney Spears made a public statement expressing regret for what she wrote about him in her book titled The Woman in Me.
I want to use this moment to express my apology to absolutely nobody," he declared on the mic, while the band played the melody of his 2013 musical teamwork with Jay-Z, "Holy Grail", as the background music.
Numerous individuals have connected Timberlake's brave non-acknowledgment to Spears' most recent assertion.
In her book, Spears shared various details concerning her three-year romance with Timberlake. She divulged her experience of opting for an abortion, clarifying that Timberlake wasn't pleased to hear of her pregnancy.
On Sunday (January 28), Spears posted a message on Instagram where she expressed her regret for certain writings in her book. She stated that if anyone she cares about was hurt by her words, she apologizes from the bottom of her heart.
