Justin Timberlake, the former NSYNC star and renowned solo artist, made headlines once again on Friday, but this time it wasn’t for his music or acting career. Timberlake pleaded guilty to impaired driving, closing the chapter on a criminal case that began with his arrest in June in the Hamptons, New York. The case has drawn widespread attention, with fans and the media following the developments closely since his arrest on a charge of driving under the influence.

The incident occurred on a summer evening in the Hamptons, where Timberlake was reportedly spending time with friends and family. According to the arrest report, police officers pulled Timberlake over after noticing erratic driving behavior. After conducting a sobriety test, the officers determined that Timberlake was over the legal limit for alcohol consumption while operating a vehicle. He was taken into custody but released shortly after posting bail. At the time of his arrest, Timberlake made no public statements, leaving fans speculating about the potential consequences for the star.

On Friday, Timberlake appeared in court and pleaded guilty to the charge of impaired driving. His legal team, which had been working behind the scenes to negotiate a plea deal, managed to reduce the potential penalties. As part of the agreement, Timberlake will avoid jail time but will face a series of penalties including a hefty fine, mandatory participation in an alcohol education program, and a temporary suspension of his driver’s license.

The case has caused considerable buzz not only because of Timberlake’s celebrity status but also because it is rare for high-profile stars to face legal consequences for such incidents. His decision to plead guilty, rather than contest the charges, has been interpreted by some as an acknowledgment of his responsibility and a desire to move forward. In a brief statement released by his representatives after the court proceedings, Timberlake expressed regret for his actions, stating:

“I made a mistake, and I take full responsibility for it. Drinking and driving is something I know I should never have done, and I’m committed to learning from this experience. I’m grateful to my family, friends, and fans for their support during this time.”

While some fans have expressed disappointment in Timberlake’s actions, many have voiced their support, appreciating his willingness to take accountability. Public figures and celebrities often face scrutiny for their behavior, and Timberlake is no exception. However, his swift response and acceptance of the legal consequences may help to mitigate some of the potential damage to his reputation.

Timberlake, who rose to fame in the late 1990s as a member of the boy band NSYNC before launching a successful solo career, has generally maintained a clean public image throughout his career. Known for hits like “Cry Me a River” and “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” as well as his ventures into acting and entrepreneurship, this incident marks one of the few legal troubles the star has faced. The case has prompted discussions about the pressures of fame and the challenges that celebrities face in maintaining a balanced personal life.

Moving forward, Timberlake will likely focus on repairing his image and continuing with his professional endeavors. Sources close to the singer have hinted that he is already working on new music, and his upcoming projects may serve as a way to shift the narrative away from this unfortunate incident. Fans and critics alike will be watching closely to see how Timberlake handles this challenge and whether he can use it as an opportunity for personal growth and reflection.

In the end, Justin Timberlake’s guilty plea to impaired driving serves as a reminder that even those in the public eye are not immune to making mistakes. How he chooses to move forward will be key in determining the long-term impact of this incident on his career and public perception. For now, Timberlake’s fans remain hopeful that this will be a one-time error and that he will learn valuable lessons from this experience.

Lauren Sanchez might have been rejected from hosting The View twice, but things seemed to have worked out for her regardless. After all, she is engaged to Jeff Bezos, who is the second richest man on planet Earth.

Sanchez appeared on this morning’s episode of The View to promote her new children’s book The Fly Who Flew to Space. But when the award-winning journalist joined the co-hosts at the Hot Topics table, she admitted that she was “a little nervous” to be on the show.

“My hand was shaking back there and my sister looked at me and she goes, ‘You’re not auditioning this time. You’re a guest,’” she said, referring to her previous auditions to be a co-host (one of which was alongside Sunny Hostin).

Joy Behar then filled the audience in on Sanchez’s connection to The View, explaining, “Lauren auditioned for this show twice and the powers that be decided, ‘No, you’re not getting the job.’ But look at you now! I don’t think that you needed the job.”

Sanchez, who had appeared on The View as a guest host more than two decades ago, recalled the “incredible” piece of advice the late Barbara Walters gave her at the time.

“One time —  I actually saw the clip, I couldn’t believe it — they pulled my hair back, they made me dress a little more conservative,” she said. “And after the show, Barbara Walters pulled me aside and she goes, ‘What are you doing?’ And I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ And she goes, ‘If you’re gonna go down, go down as yourself. Because if you don’t go down as yourself, you’re gonna beat yourself up twice.’”

She also remembered Behar once telling her, “Keep your head up, kid,” when she was having a “tough” day on set.

Looking back, Sanchez noted that her son wouldn’t have been born if she had gotten the job. “Everything happens for a reason,” she added.

Behar wrapped up the interview by telling their guest, “It’s so great that everything has worked out well for you so we don’t have to feel guilty that you’re not on the show.”

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: In a surprising turn during a discussion about political preferences, conservative commentator Jason Whitlock veered into a bizarre comparison of Brittany Mahomes and Taylor Swift’s looks, sparking a fresh wave of controversy.

Brittany Mahomes, wife of Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes, recently made headlines when she liked a social media post from former president Donald Trump, outlining his proposed policies.

Meanwhile, pop superstar Taylor Swift, who was spotted alongside Mahomes at the 2024 US Open men’s final, announced this week that she is endorsing Democratic nominee Kamala Harris in the upcoming election.

Jason Whitlock stirs controversy with remarks on Brittany Mahomes and Taylor Swift

Jason Whitlock focused not just on Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes’ political differences but also on their physical appearances, suggesting that Mahomes’ political leanings somehow highlighted her beauty in comparison to Swift, as per Daily Mail.

“This whole Brittany Mahomes deal, and her liking Trump – it really brought into focus how much better looking Brittany Mahomes is than Taylor Swift,” he stated on his Blaze TV show, in a comment that left many viewers scratching their heads.

 

Whitlock went even further, likening Mahomes to a former first lady.

“I think Brittany’s beauty is underrated, she’s kind of like Melania Trump… Melania Trump’s been on no magazine covers and we all pretend like Jill Biden and Michelle Obama are Victoria’s Secret models. That’s kind of what Brittany Mahomes and Taylor Swift is Michelle Obama,” he continued.

It’s worth noting that Melania Trump, who had a successful career as a model before becoming first lady, has graced the covers of numerous magazines, including British GQ and Vogue.

But the third wife of Trump never had the honor of being featured on the cover of Vogue when she was the first lady, unlike Jill and Michelle.

Internet erupts as Jason Whitlock claims Brittany Mahomes is ‘better looking’ than Taylor Swift

Jason Whitlock stirred a debate on social media by claiming Brittany Mahomes is “better looking” than Taylor Swift. While some users expressed frustration over his comments, others supported Whitlock’s views.

One user  said, “Stop being an a**hole. Why do you need to comment on someone’s looks. Has nothing to do with their political beliefs. And before you come at me. I’m probably a bigger Trump supporter than you. Be better. That’s all.”

Another said, “One of these is not like the others.”

One individual noted, “Keep at it and you will never make any inroads into the future generations!! Swift is not just a pretty face bro! She is a phenomenon! She comes with her own gravity! When she tours the world they see a bump in the world and economy!!!”

A user observed, “Not even close bruh.”

But another said, “Yes she is!” supporting Whitlock’s views.

Another comment read, “Totally onboard with that @WhitlockJason.”

Another wrote, “No kidding…@BrittanyLynne is much better looking than @taylorswift13….it’s not even a contest..”

Jason Whitlock slams media for avoiding Brittany Mahomes

This isn’t the first time Jason Whitlock has spoken for Brittany Mahomes.

He previously claimed that television channel, such as NBC deliberately avoided showing Brittany Mahomes during NFL games after her public support for Trump.

“I find it very interesting, I feel like nobody is talking about this,” he remarked.

“I tweeted midway through the third quarter, ‘I can’t believe they’re not going to show her at some point.’”

Whitlock’s grievances extended to the broadcasting crew, suggesting that commentators Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth were reluctant to discuss Mahomes because of her political stance.

“They made her part of the story last year, it’s interesting that now she’s my favorite NFL wife, she’s on Team MAGA, I want to know more about her than I do Taylor Swift, but I got nothing,” he added.

She took to her Instagram story, writing, “I mean honestly, to be a hater as an adult, you have to have some deep-rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood. There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.”

On the other hand, Taylor Swift, who endorsed President Joe Biden in the 2020 election, reaffirmed her political position this week by announcing her support for Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 race.

“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election,” Swift wrote on Instagram, explaining that Harris “fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them”.

This article contains remarks made on the Internet by individual people and organizations. MEAWW cannot confirm them independently and does not support claims or opinions being made online.

The View isn’t exactly the most Donald Trump-friendly program on TV these days, but co-host Ana Navarro truly tore into the former president on this morning’s show when she called him a racist countless times during an impassioned tirade against him.

While Navarro has had plenty of excuses to bash Trump on past shows, her comments today were brought on by a discussion about right wing conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, the woman who is suddenly everywhere Trump has been during his campaign.

Although Trump isn’t an uncontroversial figure himself, Loomer apparently has even his allies “alarmed” because her influence could mean he is “moving deeper into a world of conspiracies and racism,” per Axios.

Navarro told The View panel that Loomer’s proximity to Trump is no surprise, though.

“She may not be officially working for the campaign, but make no mistake: This woman is a racist, and she has access to Donald Trump,” she said. “And the reason he’s got racists around him is because Donald Trump is a racist, OK? If you are not a racist, you do not surround yourself with them.

“He was a racist when he discriminated against African Americans in the ’70s in his buildings in New York,” Navarro continued. “He was a racist when he took out a full-page ad against the Central Park Five, now Exonerated Five. He was a racist when he called Mexicans rapists and criminals, and he is a racist traveling with another racist now.”

Navarro also explained that Loomer’s presence and proximity to the Trump campaign is no coincidence.

“This woman, Laura Looney [laughter] is, she’s traveling on campaign plane. I’ve been on campaign planes,” she said. “They don’t just pluck any stranger off the street and put them on a campaign plane … the people who travel with the principle are people who have access, are people who have influence, are people who are part of the inner circle, are people who spend time and talk to them, are people who they want on that plane.”

While discussing former President Donald Trump’s mental acuity on Friday, the co-hosts of ABC’s The View inadvertently took an X-rated turn.

Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, a former Trump staffer who has become an outspoken opponent, was explaining how Trump’s judgment could not be trusted if he was associating himself with people like right-wing conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer. She went on to say that these kinds of lapses in judgment could be seen as evidence that Trump was going through a mental decline. But co-host Joy Behar wanted to know if Griffin was implying that there was something more severe afoot concerning Trump’s cognitive health:

Griffin: I have a bit of a theory which, I was very critical of Biden and what I saw as sort of the decline that came with age with him. I have said this, and I’m ringing this bell — there is a decline with Donald Trump. He’s never been the most eloquent person, that’s an overstatement.

But the judgment he’s exercising right now, when it’s not for him just about winning the White House, it’s also about staying out of jail. His criminal cases do not go away if he loses. And that he doesn’t have the judgment eight weeks out from an election to not have this fringe person who should be nowhere near the White House or mainstream politics advising him.

Or he’s espousing with 67 million people watching that “they’re eating the pets,” something is off. And I just feel like it’s not getting nearly enough attention. But the count —

Behar: Are you saying he has the “Big D”?

Griffin: I think he’s in decline.

Griffin continued, but co-host Ana Navarro had to back it up. And the studio audience knew why, as evidenced by their laughter.

Navarro: Wait, wait, wait, you got to clarify that.

Sunny Hostin: She means “dementia.”

Behar: Dementia. What are you talking about? Oh, “D,” I see. Never mind.

Watch the video above via ABC.

Joy Behar once again threw her cohosts on “The View” for a loop on Friday, when she asked if Trump might have “The big D.” And for once, she wasn’t trying to make a sexual joke.

The slip came during the first segment of the day as the ABC hosts questioned why Trump is sticking so closely with Laura Loomer, even bringing her to 9/11 memorial ceremonies on Wednesday when she’s previously touted 9/11 conspiracy theories.

Host Alyssa Farah Griffin was particularly bothered by this, reiterating her belief that Trump is in mental decline, especially given the choices he’s making this week.

“That he doesn’t have the judgment, eight weeks out from an election, to not have this fringe person who should be nowhere near the White House or mainstream politics advising him, where he’s espousing with 67 million people watching that they’re eating the pets, something is off,” she said. “And I just feel like it’s not getting nearly enough attention.”

“Wait, so you’re saying he has the big D?” Behar shot back.

Farah Griffin tried her best to carry on, but host Ana Navarro quickly cut her off, with Farah Griffin agreeing that Behar needed to immediately clarify that she was not referring to the size of any appendage on Trump.

“She means dementia!” Sara Haines chimed in.

Behar is often known for making lewd jokes on “The View,” even making several within the rest of the episode. But this particular moment, she really wasn’t aware of what she had implied.

“Dementia! What are you talking about?” she genuinely asked. “Oh, D, I see. Nevermind!”

You can watch the moment in the video, above.

A viral clip has been making the rounds on the Right — purporting to show music superstar Usher, during an appearance on The View, declining to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris. But the full video tells a very different story.

Turning Points USA founder Charlie Kirk posted the clip on X (formerly Twitter) Wednesday afternoon, writing, “Here’s Joy Behar trying to get Usher to say he’s voting for Kamala, and he basically says ‘no thanks.’”

In the clip, Behar is shown asking Usher his opinion on whether entertainers should publicly take a stand on the 2024 election.

“This emergency that we’re in, I think it behooves artists to come out and speak for Kamala against Donald Trump because he is an existential threat to the country,” Behar said. “What do you say to that?”

“You know what? I don’t get too deep into politics,” Usher replied. “I didn’t get a chance to watch the debate last night. I obviously have been watching like everybody else. I think voting is an individual choice. And I think that you’re right. You have to look at the reality of the country that we are, and the country that we want to be, and find the candidate that you feel both are who fits the category of where we want to be. And that’s it. And that’s what you vote based off of. Who you highlight and how you choose to highlight on whatever platform you have is your prerogative.”

Prominent Right-wing accounts shared Kirk’s clip — and applauded Usher for his comments.

“Usher declined to endorse Kamala on ‘The View’ today too despite Joy Behar trying to get him to do so,” Outkick’s Clay Travis said. “Also told people to do their own research and register to vote. Again, it feels like a big change going on here.”

Others shared the video as well:

Joyless Behar just assumed Usher, being a black artist, must be all in for Kamala. Kudos to him for staying publicly neutral—because, of course, we’re all dying to hear political wisdom from entertainers. pic.twitter.com/JRxD6thX0k

— Virgil L. Walker (@VirgilWalkerOMA) September 12, 2024

Only, the full video shows that Usher actually made his preference in the 2024 election very clear.

“So you’re supporting Kamala Harris in this election, I understand?” Behar asked Usher.

“Yes!” Usher replied, enthusiastically.

Behar went on to ask Usher if he “felt sorry” after the “assault on the old guy” — referring to Trump’s performance in the debate. Usher replied that he was unable to watch the debate due to a concert.

But the star musician was hardly apolitical — contrary to what the edited clip suggested.

Taylor Swift is entering her 2024 election era.

The mega pop star has thrown her support behind Vice President Harris, just under two months out from the election.

“I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos,” she wrote in a post to her more than 280 million followers on Instagram.

Swift said she was alarmed by former President Donald Trump posting recent AI pictures on social media, falsely showing her endorsing him, and wanted to combat misinformation with the truth.

The pop star, who began publicly weighing in on politics ahead of the 2018 midterms, has a record of boosting civic participation by discussing politics online. Her past endorsements and statements, though infrequent, have prompted tens of thousands of people to register to vote.

Impact of endorsement

It’s unclear how big of an impact Swift’s support this year could have on Harris. But with the presidential race expected to be extremely close, an endorsement from Swift could boost enthusiasm from Democrats, especially as Harris’ campaign works to gain back support among young Americans.

Voters under 30 were a powerful voting bloc for President Biden in 2020, siding with him by a 24-point margin. But over the past year, they’ve soured on the outgoing president. Harris’ candidacy has prompted a renewed interest in voting among Gen Z and younger millennial voters, according to the latest NPR/PBS News/Marist poll, but Harris has yet to mirror 2020 numbers.

This target generation has known the country-turned-pop star for most of their lives. Her debut album, from fall 2006, is nearly the same age as an 18-year-old eligible voter today.

Few celebrity endorsements have made noticeable impacts in modern campaigns — with the potential exception of Oprah Winfrey’s endorsement of former President Barack Obama during the 2008 presidential primary. Political experts have argued that celebrities can rally existing supporters but have minimal impact on persuading new voters. Winfrey endorsed Harris at the Democratic National Convention this year, but it’s unclear what impact her support will have on the general election.

Swift first weighed in on elections in 2018. The singer has since called out Trump during his presidency and endorsed Biden in 2020.

Trump responded in a Fox News interview Wednesday morning, declaring he is “not a Taylor Swift fan” and that “it was just a question of time” before she backed Harris because of her endorsement track record.

“You couldn’t possibly endorse [Joe] Biden, you look at Biden, you couldn’t possibly endorse him, but she’s a very liberal person, she seems to always endorse a Democrat,” Trump said. “And she’ll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace.”

Voter registrations

Swift’s political statements often accompany exhortations to vote. She again repeated her plea to supporters in her Harris endorsement on Tuesday: “Remember that in order to vote, you have to be registered!”

In a separate Instagram story, Swift shared a link to Vote.gov, where individuals can find information on where to register to vote and update their voter registration. The website is an official government website and is run by the U.S. General Services Administration, GSA, an independent government agency.

In the 24-hour window that Swift’s story was live on Instagram, a GSA spokesperson told NPR that there had been 405,999 visitors to the Vote.gov website via her unique link. That’s more than 13 times more visitors than a typical day on the site, compared to the week leading up to Swift’s post.

There were also spikes in individuals registering to vote, part of a greater upward trend voting experts have pointed out since Harris took over the Democratic ticket.

Vote.org, a separate voter group that provides registration information and guidance, told NPR that more than 52,000 people registered to vote from its platform, and more than 144,00 checked their registration status in the period shortly after Swift’s endorsement on Tuesday night through midday Thursday.

That said, it’s unclear how much of this engagement and online traction will translate to votes this fall.

Back in 2018, Vote.org reported 65,000 new voter registrations in 24 hours, when Swift endorsed two Democratic congressional candidates in her home state of Tennessee. That’s almost twice as many as the group saw on national voter registration day last year.

Despite that bump in registrations, both Tennessee candidates lost their races in the Republican state.

Some polling indicates a Swift endorsement could help people make up their minds. In a poll reported by Newsweek in May, a third of voters under 25 said they would be more likely to vote for a candidate Swift has endorsed.

Even before Swift made her endorsement, factions of her fanbase latched on to Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. J.D. Vance’s comments about “childless cat ladies,” rebranding them as a celebration of Swift, who is known for her love of cats.

Swift leaned into that perception by signing Tuesday’s Instagram post “Childless Cat Lady.”

Harris, meanwhile, appeared to cheekily nod to the endorsement as she walked off a debate watch party stage to Swift’s hit “The Man” in Philadelphia Tuesday night — queued up to begin at the anthemic chorus:

“I’m so sick of running as fast as I can
Wondering if I’d get there quicker
If I was a man
And I’m so sick of them coming at me again
‘Cause if I was a man
Then I’d be the man
I’d be the man
I’d be the man”

Also, within 20 minutes after Swift’s endorsement, the campaign began selling Harris-Walz-themed friendship bracelets — a nod at the viral trend happening at the musician’s concerts around the world.

The bracelets have since sold out.

Timberlake reached a plea deal in his case that will see him plead guilty to a less serious offense

Justin Timberlake is focused on the future after a difficult summer.

PEOPLE confirmed Timberlake, 43, recently reached a plea deal in his DWI case — and now a source tells PEOPLE that he’s ready to put the legal drama behind him.

“He’s a family man, and this is his focus. He accepted a plea deal because he wants to move on,” the source says. “The court case has been a distraction. He doesn’t want his family to be affected by it.”

The “Selfish” singer — who is married to actress Jessica Biel, 42, with whom he shares sons Silas, 9, and Phineas, 4 — was arrested in Sag Harbor, N.Y., on June 18 and charged with driving while intoxicated.

He’s due in court for a hearing in New York on Friday, Sept. 13, and TMZ and the Associated Press reported that he has agreed to plead guilty to a less serious offense. His attorney Edward Burke Jr. has maintained that the star was “not intoxicated” when he was arrested. Still, Timberlake had his license suspended for a year in the state of New York at a hearing in August, something Burke said was “standard.”

“It’s not like he’s getting off completely — his license is still suspended,” the source adds. “Jess has not been happy about it. She’s encouraged him to accept the plea deal.”

The 10-time Grammy winner is currently on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which the source says is “his priority as well.” He is next scheduled to play on Sept. 28 in Newark, N.J. and will be on the road through June 2025. The tour is on track to land in the top 10 of the year-end tours list per Billboard.

At a Chicago concert in June shortly after his arrest, Timberlake told fans he’d had a “tough week,” but that he appreciated their support.

“I know sometimes I’m hard to love but you keep on loving me and I love you right back,” he said to cheers.

A source told PEOPLE at the time that Timberlake and Biel had “moved on from the arrest,” and were focused on work, with him on tour and her shooting the upcoming Prime Video series The Better Sister.

CNN — 

Janet Jackson is sharing a story that proves her infamous Super Bowl halftime show moment with Justin Timberlake wasn’t her only “wardrobe malfunction.”

The legendary singer and actress served up the royally delicious tea in a video with British Vogue for their “Life in Looks” franchise posted Thursday, in which she recounted a “funny story” about her iconic “Rhythm Nation” outfit.

“I was performing for the Queen of England and we were doing ‘Rhythm Nation,’” she recalled. “Sure enough, as soon as I squatted, my pants split right in my booty crack.”

Wait, what?! We have barely recovered from learning about Jackson’s famous cousins and now this?

“I couldn’t believe it happened,” Jackson said. “I thought ‘Oh my God!’”

Jackson said she knew it was legit when she felt “air back there” from the split in her pants. The star said she had to adjust her performance before the Queen.

“So I never turned my back to her, which some of the choreography was supposed to,” Jackson said. “I just faced forward.”

Jackson also talked about how the famous key she kept on a hoop earring came to be – she was in charge of cleaning the cages for her family’s many animals and that was her way of carrying the key – and making the “Scream” music video with her brother, Michael Jackson.
