Justin Timberlake Cancels Last U.S. Show on Forget Tomorrow World Tour
Originally appeared on E! Online
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 —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.

'There's truly nothing this man can't do,' the 7th Heaven actress wrote on Instagram alongside clips of herself dancing at Justin's shows. 'It's been so special to watch you, listen to you, and be alongside you for this tour. One last show tonight, give it all you've got. I am the proudest.'
Despite the cancellation, Justin is still set to perform a series of festival shows across Europe and Latin America later this year, as well as a headlining set at the BottleRock Napa Valley festival in Napa, Calif., according to his official website.
The alum previously faced another setback during his concert run when he was arrested for driving while intoxicated on Long Island in June. He later pled guilty to a noncriminal traffic violation of driving while impaired and agreed to pay a fine as well as perform community service, according to NBC News.
'As you may know, I try to hold myself to a very high standard for myself—and this was not that,' he said during a press conference in September after striking the plea deal. 'I found myself in a position where I could have made a different decision, but I've had some time to reflect on that.'
He noted that the offense was 'a mistake that I made,' adding, 'I hope whoever is watching and listening right now can learn from this mistake. I know that I certainly have.'

Sister Wives ' Robyn Brown Addresses Husband Kody Brown's Exes
Originally appeared on E! Online So much for sisterhood. During part two of the Sister Wives season 19 tell-all, Robyn Brown addressed comments made about her throughout the season by her husband Kody Brown's ex-wives Meri Brown, Janelle Brown and Christine Brown. 'I think there's a lot of focus on me,' she told host Sukanya Krishnan in a one-on-one interview during the June 1 episode of the TLC series. 'I actually get really tired of it.' Instead, Robyn—who spiritually married Kody in 2010 before becoming his legal wife four years later—suggested that the trio turn their attention elsewhere. 'I wish really badly that they would all focus on their own relationships,' she continued, 'and work those relationships out without my name coming up.' In particular, Sukanya pointed to Janelle's declaration that Robyn was Kody's 'sacred cow,' prompting the 46-year-old to offer a simple response. 'Moo,' Robyn deadpanned. 'I don't know. Whatever. I don't care.' During part one of the tell-all special, Meri—who was married to Kody from 1990 to 2023—took issue with him wanting her as well as Janelle, 56, and Christine, 53, to change after he began his relationship with Robyn.

'Because we're all supposed to be Robyn? I'm sorry, I am Meri. I'm not going to be Robyn. I don't want to be Robyn. I'm going to be my own individual person. I don't want to be her.' Meanwhile, Kody, 56, dismissed his exes' criticisms and insisted he wanted to move forward without drama. 'There's a divine aspect about my relationship with Robyn,' he explained in his interview. 'We have been b--chslapped for it and I'm sick of it. I love this woman and I want peace in this relationship, but I'm to the point where I'm walking around flipping two birds 'cause I am so sick and tired of being guilted for loving Robyn.'
