Justin Timberlake says he's been diagnosed with Lyme disease

The SexyBack singer, who described himself as a private person, wrote that he considered ending the tour when he was diagnosed, but wrote that he 'decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I'm so glad I kept going'.
Lyme disease is transmitted by Ixodes ticks, also known as deer ticks. It can cause flu-like conditions, neurological problems, joint pain and other symptoms. In the vast majority of cases, Lyme disease is successfully treated with antibiotics.
'I honestly don't know what my future is onstage, but I'll always cherish this run! And all of them before! It's been the stuff of legend for me,' Timberlake wrote.
Timberlake cancelled and postponed multiple shows throughout the tour's run, citing health issues including bronchitis and laryngitis.
Six of his US shows were postponed from October and November to February, the singer announced on Instagram.
Timberlake ultimately cancelled the final show of the American leg of the tour in Ohio due to the flu in February.

Representatives for Timberlake did not immediately respond to The Associated Press's request for comment.
Timberlake pleaded guilty to driving while impaired in New York's Hamptons in 2024. As part of his plea deal, the singer gave a public safety announcement in September, urging drivers not to get behind the wheel after drinking.
The 10-time Grammy winner ended the post thanking his wife, Jessica Biel, and their two sons, Silas and Phin, saying 'nothing is more powerful than your unconditional love. You are my heart and my home. I'm on my way'.

Celtic fans demand ‘where can I get one?' as South American club release Hoops-inspired kit in homage to Parkhead side

A SOUTH American club have unveiled their new kit inspired by Celtic, with Hoops fans liking what they see. The jersey unveiled yesterday by Argentinian side Club Atletico Sarmiento is a double call-back to the Hoops. 3 Club Atletico Sarmiento have released a kit inspired by Celtic Credit: Club Atletico Sarmiento / X 3 The Hoops are in call-back to the Lisbon Lions Credit: Club Atletico Sarmiento / X 3 The announcement video shows a bagpiper draped in the colours Credit: Club Atletico Sarmiento / X The top is inspired by their own kit from 1968, which in turn was inspired by the European Cup winners of the previous year - the famous Lisbon Lions. Sharing the latest bit of gear, Sarmiento said in a social media post: "A t-shirt is more than fabric, it connects stories. "In 1968, Sarmiento used a design inspired by Celtic, the European champions. A Scottish club with an Irish soul. "Today, we relaunch that t-shirt to celebrate the union and the Irish legacy in Junín." The launch video shows a man in the Hoops wielding bagpipes, while a voiceover says: "More than a century ago, the Irish community brought work, customs, and a colour that will stay with us forever. "In 1968, Sarmiento decided to wear the green and white jersey like Celtic, European Champions. A Scottish club with an Irish soul. "That shirt became history. Today we wear it again. "A tribute to the Irish community, to our city, to its roots, which are also part of our history." Also shown is a captain's armband in tricolours emblazoned with a shamrock. And some fans of a green and white persuasion are enamoured by this top, wondering how they can get their hands on one. Celtic linked with ANOTHER winger and is Balikwisha a DONE DEAL One wrote 'that's class', while another said it's 'better than what we have and a nice armband'. A fan commented 'I'd buy one of these' while others asked where to do so. But it seems that may not be an easy task, as the club has confirmed an initially limited sale. Sarmiento said: "A beauty. The first units of the new model will be on sale exclusively for members at our stand at the #ExpoJunín. Limited units. "The Sarmiento Athletic Club thanks everyone who made this production possible." One keen Hoops supporter replied in Spanish asking if it would be available for online purchase and delivery to Scotland, but the answer isn't yet known.

Netflix adds 'outstanding' crime series with 96% Rotten Tomatoes score as fans beg for fourth season

Netflix has recently added a new three-season long crime drama which is so good it has viewers skipping sleep to "binge it all night". Netflix has quietly added a brilliant crime thriller series which fans "can't turn off" as they've been left begging for a fourth season of the show. Sneaky Pete, starring Giovanni Ribisi in the leading role, follows the story of con man Marius, who steals the identity of his former cellmate Pete, after being released from prison to escape a dangerous gangster. ‌ Marius tricks Pete's family into believing he is their long-lost loved one but he quickly realises that their own secrets and lies could end up making his life as dangerous as the world he was desperately trying to escape. Other stars in the show include Margo Martindale, Bryan Cranston, Libe Barer and Marin Ireland. ‌ The American crime drama, co-created by Breaking Bad star Cranston first aired in 2015 but viewers are hooked after it was recently uploaded to Netflix. Sneaky Pete concluded in 2019 after its third season but fans are now begging for a fourth season after complaining the show came to an end too soon. ‌ The show, which originally aired on Amazon Prime Video, has been showered with praise as viewers rushed to X to express their surprise at just how good it was. One fan was left questioning how they missed the initial release of the show as they wrote: "Sneaky Pete on Netflix. Watch it. Holy s***. So so good. Don't know how I missed it the first time around." A second exclaimed: "Binge worthy series if you enjoy comedic heists and cons - 'Sneaky Pete' (Amazon Prime and Netflix)." A third chimed in: "Just got thru season 1 of Sneaky Pete and I'm mad no one told me ever hyped this show up????" Somebody else added: "I should be sleep. Up watching Sneaky Pete. Never heard of this show until the other day." ‌ Yet another agreed: "All I wanna do is watch Sneaky Pete." Someone else gushed: "Sneaky Pete has all my attention!!!" ‌ Another wrote: "Sneaky Pete on Netflix is a great show if you like unexpected turns and being on the edge of your seat." Fans are now begging for a fourth season to be released after many felt the show came to an abrupt end. One wrote: "Just binged watched #sneakypete. I need another series @netflix. Loved every episode." ‌ A second echoed: "Sneaky Pete is now on Netflix. Underrated show that ended too soon." The show was renewed for a second season in 2018, three years after its first season debuted so there may be hope for fans yet if enough of a fuss is kicked up about it. Sneaky Pete's release on Netflix came just weeks before actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner's death, who plays the recurring character of Marius' parole officer, James Bagwell, in the show. ‌ Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

The 54-year-old star tragically passed away on July 20 after an accidental drowning while learning how to surf in Costa Rica. Fans were quick to point out his presence in the show as they took to X to say: "I'm literally finishing season 3 of 'Sneaky Pete', I was so happy to see Malcolm Jamal Warner in it, still looking youthful and vibrant." Another wrote: "I literally threw on Sneaky Pete, never even heard of it, and in comes Malcolm-Jamal Warner", alongside a sad face emoji.
