Justin Timberlake Cancels Final U.S. Concert on Forget Tomorrow World Tour Hours Before Showtime

Justin Timberlake is cutting the tour—the world tour—short.

The “SexyBack” singer announced he was cancelling the final U.S. concert on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour just hours before he was set to take the stage in Columbus, Ohio, after falling ill.

“You guys, I’m heartbroken,” he wrote in a post on Instagram Feb. 27. “I have to cancel the show tonight. I went into soundcheck battling the flu and now it’s gotten the best of me.”

The 44-year-old went on to express his regret for the last-minute change of plans.

“It kills me to disappoint you and my team worked so hard to make this show happen,” he continued. “I want to reassure you, you’ll be getting refunds for your tickets. I love you all.”

Earlier in the day, Justin’s wife Jessica Biel—with whom he shares sons Silas, 9, and Phineas, 4—marked the expected conclusion of the tour with a touching tribute to her husband of 12 years.
