Scandal-plagued Justin Timberlake looked weary as he boarded a private jet while continuing his infamous world tour years after his era as pop’s golden boy.
The 44-year-old former NSYNC member looked worse for wear while arriving in Buenos Aires, Argentina on Tuesday.
Justin kept the hood on his sweater up to try to cover up his tired face as he, his band, and crew touched down in South America after boarding from Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
His stoic face featured quite a bit of grizzled scruff on it as he lugged along a backpack.
Justin wore a green all-over print hoodie as he had a pair of designer sunglᴀsses hanging off the collar.
He then hopped into the back of a black SUV as he continued his long travel day ahead of his concert on Friday in San Isidro on ‘trainwreck’ The Forget Tomorrow World Tour which has been marred in controversy.

The outing came weeks after fans were unable to sing along with his flop new song at a Minnesota concert on February 24 that earned scathing reviews.
Fans of the pop star were left disappointed by his show in St Paul last month where he insisted on playing new songs ‘hardly anyone cared about.’

While fans were hoping to indulge in nostalgia and see Timberlake perform his most famous hits, they were instead forced to endure ‘meh’ material, per a scathing review by the Minnesota Star Tribune.
Timberlake was slammed for performing as many as 11 songs from his most recent album, Everything I Thought It Was, which was a commercial failure. He was apparently embarrᴀssed when he asked fans to sing the album’s single, but the crowd didn’t know the words to the song, which made little impact.
Fans were also disappointed that a ‘monolith’ tour prop Timberlake has used during the encore at previous shows failed to make an appearance.
Instead, the singer performed hits like Mirrors in a secondary stage that some fans complained was not central enough.
One fan said on Facebook that Timberlake ‘spent quite a bit of time on a second stage at the back of the arena, and finished out the show back there, so lost a little luster for anyone toward the front.’
The St Paul show was the penultimate US show of Timberlake’s Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which has been mired by scandals including his DWI arrest last summer.

As noted by the Star Tribune, Timberlake was supposed to perform in the city last Halloween, but postponed the show due to bronchitis and laryngitis.
The outlet acknowledged Timberlake’s ‘natural showmanship, deft musicianship and contagious energy’ still managed to entertain the audience at the Xcel Energy Center.
Timberlake has faced various embarrᴀssments since the tour began – in December was performing in Nashville when a harness around his waistline drew attention to to his crotch area.
Timberlake took a plea deal after his DWI arrest in the Hamptons last summer
The camera zoomed in for a closer look as the singer awkwardly tugged at his shirt, seemingly trying to cover up the surprise bulge.
Naturally, social media exploded and trolls quickly pounced, poking fun at the situation.
Last June Timberlake accepted a plea deal following his DUI arrest in the Hamptons.
In an embarrᴀssing moment for the singer, he was seen on bodycam telling the police officer, who did not know who he was, that the arrest ‘would ruin the world tour.’
The once-beloved former N-Sync member has had a rough couple of years after his treatment of ex-girlfriend Britney Spears was put under a microscope during her conservatorship battle.
Spears made explosive claims about their tumultuous romance in her 2023 memoir, The Woman In Me.
She claimed that Justin urged her to have an abortion when she fell pregnant and accused him of making her look like a ‘harlot who’d broken the heart of America’s golden boy’ when they split.
Timberlake’s treatment of Janet Jackson following a wardrobe mishap at the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show has also come under scrutiny.

The backlash had a striking effect on Janet’s career in the years that followed, and the controversy has long overshadowed the rest of her performance on the night.
While Jackson was essentially blacklisted in the years that followed, Timberlake’s own career was allowed continue unscathed – although he has since faced a reckoning.
The difference in how they were treated has lead to backlash from the public who felt Jackson had been unfairly treated, prompting Timberlake to release a belated apology in 2021 to both Spears and Jackson.
He stated that he was ‘deeply sorry for the times in my life where my actions contributed to the problem, where I spoke out of turn, or did not speak up for what was right.’
The Cry Me A River hitmaker added that he understood that he ‘fell short in these moments and in many others and benefited from a system that condones misogyny and racism.’
Justin will embark in additional international dates and make stops in countries such as Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Norway and Denmark – with the tour concluding on June 14, 2025.
Justin tied the knot with actress, Jessica Biel, in 2012 – and the couple share two children: Silas, nine, and Phineas, four.
