‘What a joke’: Justin Timberlake fans demand refunds after the star ‘barely sings’ during latest concert
Justin Timberlake fans are demanding refunds after videos of the star not singing at his concert went viral, sparking mass ridicule.
Justin Timberlake is facing ridicule after numerous videos from his latest concerts appeared to show him “barely singing”.
Timberlake is currently embarking on the European leg of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which has already sparked viral videos for all the wrong reasons.
One video shared by a fan at the star’s show at Electric Castle festival in Transylvania on July 17 shows the star appearing rather unenthused at the notion of having to perform.
The clip shows the star during a performance of Can’t Stop The Feeling, however, the word “performance” appears to be quite a stretch.
“Is the rain always like this in the summer? No? So y’all cooked this up for me? Thanks,” he said complaining about the weather.
He keeps holding the microphone at the crowd encouraging them to sing before pulling up his hood and singing a handful of words, then turning to the audience again.
Another clip that went viral showed the star barely singing his smash hit Mirrors, with the caption from a fan saying: “Go girl, give us nothing!
“Can yall just peep that attitude at the end too like he was mad yall didn’t sing it loud enough. When he’s the one getting paid to do that,” remarked one annoyed fan.
Another agreed, replying: “This is awful! People paid to be there and he just couldn’t be bothered?”
“This performance literally could have been an email!” laughed a third, with another adding: “I wasn’t even there and I want a refund!”
It comes after Timberlake sparked backlash earlier this year when he cancelled the final show of the US leg of his tour with just 12 minutes until showtime.

“You guys. I’m heartbroken. I have to cancel the show tonight,” Justin revealed on Instagram. “I went into soundcheck battling the flu and now it’s gotten the best of me. It kills me to disappoint you and my team who have worked so hard to make this show happen. I want to reassure you, you’ll be getting refunds for your tickets. I love you all.”
Fans rushed to lash out at the star for giving barely any notice, with one commenting: “Cancelling because of being sick is 100% understandable. Cancelling 10 minutes before the doors were to open is unacceptable.”
“Bought almost 40 bucks in drinks tonight, was sitting in our seats, we thought the announcement was a joke. Paid 20 dollars in parking and now 2 vacation days wasted on this MF,” remarked another angry fan at the time.
