Justin Timberlake Retired By Fans After Album & Tour Flops

[RAMROD 108,625]

He started the year on a sour note, being slammed by Britney Spears fans after she revealed in her memoir “The Woman in Me” that during the couple’s 1999-2002 relationship, Timberlake cheated on her multiple times, urged her to get an abortion and used their break up to launch his solo career. Britney laterapologized, but later recanted the apology after Timberlake told a New York City audience he wanted to “apologize to absolutely [expletive] nobody.”

Timberlake, 43, seemed especially annoyed as he needed attention – not for his previous behavior – but for his upcoming movie, “Trolls 3” and his new album.

The singer teased an *NSYNC reunion at the Video Music Awards – and in February kept that rumor going… all to get press for his first album in six years, “Everything I Thought it Was,” which debuted March 15.

But while fans seemed to be interested in an *NSYNC reunion … they aren’t much interested in Timberlake.

His album debuted at No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100 but dropped off the Billboard Hot 200 completely after just four weeks.

Meanwhile, Timberlake’s “The Forget Tomorrow” tour is far from selling out. Tickets in all sections are available in almost every city and the highest price for the best seats can be found for under $900.

On Friday, Timberlake announced he was canceling his June concert in Columbia, South Carolina. While no reason was given, insiders point to slow ticket sales.

“A six-year break from your mid-thirties to your early forties is a really long time (for an artist),” famed music journalist Touré of TheGrio told me. “Most of (Timberlake’s) fans have aged out of caring about him. It’s like the old saying goes, ‘You don’t retire – the audience retires you.’”

Most artist evolve over time or atleast stay in the same position, he kinda regressed and became boring. ( Musicly speeking, on top of that all the scandals)

his tour is almost 90% sold. he cancelled just 1 show of 77.

This is the biggest thing.
 
There are so many acts who took time off in their mid 30s age and when they return quickly get humbled/forced into being a legacy act.

Not really a fan of this album, but this is a false statement. The album debuted at number 4, his lead single debuted at 19, which is a huge difference. Can’t say I’m a fan of his like I used to be but definitely not giving this article much attention

Some fans are desperately trying to make him look like he's a flop now but clearly there's demand to see him live if tickets are selling. The album might not be selling but these type of acts clearly rely on pure nostalgia. Just look at the Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys, etc.

I hate Justin Timberlake as much as any GGD user but this article is rude as hell?
