    The pair was captured on video walking beside each other as they made their way out of Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, on Sunday night

    Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are officially spending time together!

    The “Lavender Haze” singer, 33, was captured on video leaving Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, on Sunday night with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, also 33, by her side.

    As the two walked together other on their way out of the building, Swift smiled briefly at the camera and appeared to say “bye.” Kelce, dressed in a patterned two-piece outfit, also shot a smile and brief nod to the camera

    Swift was part of the crowd cheering on the Chiefs in their matchup against the Chicago Bears Sunday. She watched the on-field action from Kelce’s suite with the athlete’s mother, Donna Kelce. The pair could be seen sitting shoulder-to-shoulder and chatting and laughing together throughout the game.

    The Grammy winner showed her team spirit by wear ing a red-and-white Chiefs jacket, which was later tied around her waist as she left the stadium. Footage from the game, shared by Fox Sports on X, showed Swift smiling, cheering and clapping enthusiastically as she watched Kelce and h is teammates. At one point, she even raised her hands in the air in excitement.

    Swift’s stadium appearance comes just days after Kelce invited her to attend the game while appearing on The Pat McAfee Show podcast. A source told PEOPLE that once Swift heard about the invite, she didn’t let a busy schedule stop her from accepting.

    “Taylor is very focused on work right now and hanging out with her girlfriends,” the source said. “Travis invited her to the game, and of course she said ‘yes.’”

    “She just thought it was a fantastic way to spend Sunday,” the source added.

    On the podcast Thursday, host Pat McAfee asked Kelce if he wanted to “expand upon” the rumors that he and Swift are dating, which is “being talked about by the whole entire world right now.”

    Though he wouldn’t confirm at the time whether he and Swift had actually met in person, he did share that he “threw the ball in her court.”

    “I’ve seen you rock the stage at Arrowhead [Stadium],” he told McAfee, as if speaking directly to the “Champagne Problems” singer. “You might have to come see me rock the stage at Arrowhead and see which one’s a little more lit.”

    “We’ll see what happens in the near future,” he added.

    Marjorie’s influence on Taylor is immortalized in the song “marjorie” from Taylor’s quarantine album “evermore.”

    The song reflects the life lessons and memories Taylor holds dear, emphasizing kindness and cleverness.

    It even features a snippet of Marjorie’s voice, a touching tribute that moved fans during Taylor’s Eras Tour.

    “I should’ve asked you questions / I should’ve asked you how to be / Asked you to write it down for me / Should’ve kept every grocery store receipt / ‘Cause every scrap of you would be taken from me / Watched as you signed your name Marjorie / All your closets of backlogged dreams / And how you left them all to me,” the lyrics go.Taylor’s dedication to fulfilling her grandmother’s dreams is evident, and fans argue that her relationship with Kelce doesn’t diminish Marjorie’s legacy.

    Interestingly, “marjorie” is the 13th track on “evermore,” a nod to Taylor’s favorite number, which holds personal significance as her birthday falls on December 13.

    Usher made headlines this week for exactly what we’d expect: making the girlies hearts melt. During an appearance on The View, the “My Way” singer charmed not only the audience but also the entire panel of hosts.

    In a segment that has since gone viral, Usher gave the ladies a little more than they bargained for when asked about the right way to treat a woman. Effortlessly blending his smooth charisma and smile with his intense gaze and good looks, Usher had them all gushing.

    The A-town heartthrob was on the daytime show to promote his highly-anticipated music film set to be released this weekend. He also chatted about politics and concerts in Brooklyn.

    But his spontaneous “wooing” session stole the show (and the hearts of The View hosts). If we’re honest, though, can we really blame them?

    Usher On ‘The View’ Is The Definition Of ‘The Art Of Seduction’

    When asked about “the secret to the art of seduction,” Usher didn’t just explain—he demonstrated. Whew, did he demonstrate!

    Locking eyes with each female host, Usher put his signature charm on full display. It wasn’t just words but how he connected words and actions, showing the two go hand in hand.

    Besides that, Usher is just fine.

    “The art of seduction is catering to your woman,” the singer said. “You have to understand that she wants undivided attention.”

    The View’s Sunny Hostin agreed. “She sure does,” she said emphatically, smiling on stage.

    “You have to look in her eyes and let her know how you really feel,” Usher continued. (This time, Joy Behar was receiving the benefit of the singer’s gaze.)

    Usher’s flirtatious yet respectful gaze sent the hosts into a fluster, proving why he remains on the top of many fans’ Zaddy list. The clip has since taken the internet by storm, with fans and viewers captivated and smiling.

    More than 10,000 fans of The View have liked the post, and more than 300 have commented. “I’m grinning and blushing just watching this. Usher knows he’s got that thang!🥰,” wrote one fan. “The entire team was ready to risk it all 🥰😂,” joked another.

    The viral moment is a welcome reminder of Usher’s legendary Las Vegas residency. The singer had crowds of thousands – including celebrities like Keke Palmer, Issa Rae, and Marlo Hampton – swooning night after night.

    Whatever it is, Usher just has a unique ability to entice, captivate, and excite. Whether performing in front of sold-out arenas or sitting down for a daytime talk show, Usher proves that he’s the undisputed king of everything smooth.

    Taylor Swift was very amused by Jason Kelce’s recent Monday Night Football antics!

    Travis Kelce revealed on the latest episode of his and Jason’s New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast that both he and his girlfriend, 34, had quite the reaction to finding out that the former Philadelphia Eagles center, 36, bought a shirt that was too small at the mall right before his Monday Night Football debut.

    As the San Francisco 49ers were preparing to take on the New York Jets at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. on the broadcast, Scott Van Pelt told viewers on Monday, Sept. 9 that Jason was “wearing a shirt he got at the mall because he left his travel bag in the truck.”

    This prompted the former NFL player to respond, “It fits my belly now. I’ve lost a little bit of weight, but my tits are still struggling.”

    On New Heights in an episode released Wednesday, Sept. 11, Travis, 34, recalled, “And, me and Taylor were watching that absolutely dying laughing at it. It was the perfect thing to open everybody up to what they were gonna experience for the next 18 weeks.”

    ESPN shared the clip of Jason and Van Pelt’s exchange on Instagram following the broadcast, inviting fans of the retired Eagles player to join in on the joke — something which the Kansas City Chiefs player was only happy to do.

    “Surprised he even bought a new one, and didn’t just go shirtless,” Travis commented on the post, referring to Jason cheering for the Kansas City Chiefs shirtless during a playoff game in January.

    He noted his comment on the recent podcast, to which Jason replied, “I mean, Pat McAfee’s done a couple of these things shirtless. I think. [It] feels like anything goes now in the world of broadcasting.”

    The retired NFL player went on to admit that he was “very nervous” for his broadcast debut. “It’s like anything you do your first time. I did not feel prepared. I felt very nervous. I didn’t know what to expect.”

    “And then you realize that you were prepared, that ESPN did a great job of setting everything up, and that you’re on set, thankfully, for me with three other guys that have done it a bunch,” he added.

    It’s no surprise that Swift was tuning in for Jason/’s debut, as he has also shown his support for the pop superstar and her relationship with his brother in the past. Over the summer, he and wife Kylie Kelce even attended a couple of the singer’s Eras Tour concerts at London’s Wembley Stadium.

    He was videoed excitedly showing off several friendship bracelets during one of the shows and he has been vocal about which of the Grammy winner’s songs he’s been listening to the most, which included “I Can Do It with a Broken Heart.”

    “There’s a line in that where ‘I’m a real tough kid. I can handle my s—,’ ” he shared on the Pivot Podcast. “[My daughter] Ellie’s 3 years old and she says, ‘I’m a real tough kid. I can handle my stuff.’ That’s all I hear on a daily basis, because it gets a laugh out of me every time.”

  • Justin Timberlake Speaks Out After Reaching Plea Deal in DWI Case: ‘Don’t Get Behind the Wheel of a Car’

    Justin Timberlake Speaks Out After Reaching Plea Deal in DWI Case: ‘Don’t Get Behind the Wheel of a Car’

    Timberlake reached a deal following his June arrest that will see the star pay a $500 fine and complete community service

    Just minutes after reaching a plea deal in his own DWI case, Justin Timberlake is speaking out on the dangers of drunk driving.

    The “Mirrors” singer, 43, addressed reporters, including PEOPLE, outside the courthouse in Sag Harbor, N.Y. on Friday, Sept. 13, and emphasized the importance of using a rideshare app or calling a friend to get home after consuming any amount of alcohol.

    “What I’d like to say to everyone watching and listening, even if you’ve had one drink, don’t get behind the wheel of a car. There’s so many alternatives. Call a friend. Take an Uber. There’s many travel apps,” he said. “Take a taxi. This is a mistake that I made, but I’m hoping that whoever’s listening and watching right now can learn from this mistake. I know that I certainly have… Even one drink. Don’t get behind the wheel of a car.”

    Earlier in the day, Timberlake — who was charged with driving while intoxicated following his arrest in June — pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of driving while ability impaired as part of his plea deal. The agreement means the star must pay a $500 fine with a $260 surcharge, complete 25 hours of community service at the nonprofit of his choice and have his license suspended for 90 days. He must also make a public service announcement about the dangers of driving impaired.

    While speaking to reporters, the Grammy winner expressed disappointment with his actions, and explained why he felt the need to speak about the issue of driving while intoxicated publicly.

    “Many of you have probably been covering me for a lot of my life, and as you may know, I try to hold myself to a very high standard for myself. And this was not that. This was not that,” he said. “I found myself in a position where I could’ve made a different decision, but I’ve had some time to reflect on that and I also understand… that I have a platform, you have a platform, we share that platform.”

    Timberlake also said that he “grew up in a small town,” and could therefore “appreciate and understand the strain or unique nature” his case likely imposed on the people of Sag Harbor (The star grew up in Millington, Tenn., a town with a population of about 10,400 people; Sag Harbor has a population of about 2,500 people).

    “I just want to say to everyone who’s been involved, from everyone in the courtroom to everyone outside, including the police department, that I’m very grateful and I thank them and I guess in closing, I’d like to say we can all be more safe out there. And I’m gonna do my part,” he concluded. “I hope that everyone else does their part. And thank you very much.”

    While in court, Timberlake made a similar comment about the strain on local resources, which prompted Justice Carl Irace to question his “intent,” as he had not yet addressed his decision to drive when he could have used an alternate form of transportation.

    The musician then said he “should’ve had better judgment” and understood the “seriousness” of the issue, after which Irace told the star he appreciated his sincerity.

    “I believe you,” Irace said before granting the plea deal and imposing the terms of the sentence.

    Over multiple hearings this summer, Timberlake’s attorney Edward Burke Jr. has maintained in court that his high-profile client was “not intoxicated” when he was arrested, and Timberlake has said he had one martini.

    The star is currently on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which will continue through June 2025. His next show is scheduled for Sept. 28 in Newark, N.J., and the tour is on track to land in the top 10 of the year-end tours list, per Billboard.

    Justin Timberlake’s DWI case wrapped Friday with a plea deal as he pled guilty to the lesser charge of driving while ability impaired.

    The musician, 43, appeared with his attorney Edward Burke Jr. on Sept. 13 for a hearing at the courthouse in Sag Harbor, N.Y. after reaching an agreement in his DWI case.

    Timberlake addressed Sag Harbor Village Justice Carl Irace, telling the judge that throughout his life, he has tried to hold himself to the “highest standard possible,” and that given the “time to reflect” since his June arrest, has “found myself in a position of disappointment” with himself.

    “I did not live up to the standard I hold myself to,” Timberlake said, adding that he had been “raised on certain values” and is aware of his large platform, “a platform I spent my life making.”

    He told the court that he’d “like to take a moment to show gratitude to everybody involved,” and said that since he grew up in a small town, he understands “the strain this can put” on local resources.

    Following Timberlake’s statement, Irace questioned the singer’s “intent,” telling him he still had not addressed the decision to drive when he could have taken a taxi or used a rideshare app.

    “I found myself in a position where I should’ve taken a moment,” Timberlake told Irace. “I should’ve had better judgment. I understand and appreciate the seriousness of this situation I put myself in.”

    Irace replied that he appreciated Timberlake’s sincerity and that the singer had given the situation a lot of thought. The judge told Timberlake “I believe you” before granting the plea deal and imposing the terms of the sentence.

    Timberlake will be required to make a public service announcement about the dangers of driving impaired, pay a $500 fine with a $260 surcharge, complete 25 hours of community service at the non-profit of his choice — which Timberlake said he “would be honored to” do — and have his license suspended for 90 days.

    Timberlake and Burke each addressed the press following the sentencing.

    “The evidence revealed that my client finished the contents of one drink in two hours at the American Hotel,” Burke told reporters as Timberlake stood quietly behind him. “Contrary to what was reported, he wasn’t drinking other people’s drinks, or warned in advance not to drive. He wasn’t rude, he wasn’t obnoxious, he wasn’t belligerent. In fact, he was polite and he was cooperative and he was respectful during his entire encounter with law enforcement.”

    He added, “His plea today to the reduced and amended non-criminal charge is consistent with these facts.

    Timberlake spoke to the gathered crowd, encouraging gathered reporters to explore alternative transportation if they’re imbibing.

    “Many of you have probably been covering me for a lot of my life, and as you may know, I try to hold myself to a very high standard for myself. And this was not that. This was not that,” he said. “I found myself in a position where I could’ve made a different decision, but I’ve had some time to reflect on that and I also understand… that I have a platform, you have a platform, we share that platform.”

    He continued, “What I’d like to say to everyone watching and listening, even if you’ve had one drink, don’t get behind the wheel of a car. There’s so many alternatives. Call a friend. Take an Uber. There’s many travel apps. Take a taxi. This is a mistake that I made, but I’m hoping that whoever’s listening and watching right now can learn from this mistake. I know that I certainly have… Even one drink. Don’t get behind the wheel of a car.”

    Timberlake closed by thanking those involved, including the police.

    “I just want to say to everyone who’s been involved, from everyone in the courtroom to everyone outside, including the police department, that I’m very grateful and I thank them and I guess in closing, I’d like to say we can all be more safe out there. And I’m gonna do my part. I hope that everyone else does their part. And thank you very much.”

    It was previously reported that Timberlake agreed to plead guilty to the less serious offense of driving while ability impaired after initially being charged with driving while intoxicated. A source close to the star told PEOPLE that he did this so he could 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 said. “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 and received two citations for running a stop sign and failure to keep in lane.

    According to the arrest report, an officer allegedly saw Timberlake’s 2025 BMW drive through a stop sign, and “fail to keep on the right side of the roadway.” After the officer initiated a traffic stop, he noted Timberlake’s “eyes were bloodshot and glassy, a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage was emanating from his breath… and he performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests.”

    Burke has maintained in court that Timberlake was “not intoxicated” when he was arrested. He put forth a motion to dismiss the case in July but withdrew the motion during a hearing in August when the musician pleaded not guilty to the charges while appearing virtually in court from Antwerp, Belgium.

    During that August hearing, the singer also had his license suspended for a year in the state of New York, since he had refused a breathalyzer after being taken to police headquarters following his arrest — something his lawyer said was “standard with every DUI.”

    “In 2023, Travis started dating singer-songwriter Taylor Swift.

    Kelce, 34, and Swift first sparked dating rumors in September 2023, after the Midnights musician attended a handful of the NFL star’s games. The two then confirmed their romance in October 2023 when they stepped out holding hands at a Saturday Night Live after party.

    Since then, Kelce has supported his pop star girlfriend on numerous occasions, showing up for shows part of her Eras Tour across the globe. Swift, meanwhile, has shown her support for her athlete beau by attending many of his football games — including one earlier this month, when the Chiefs defeated the Baltimore Ravens during the NFL season opener.

    Joy Behar Asks ‘The View’ If Trump Has ‘The Big D’ — And Clarity Is Needed, Fast! (HG)

    The View': Joy Behar Asks if Alyssa Farah Griffin Is On Drugs After She  Admits to Being in a Good Mood | Video

    When panelist Ana Navarro heard the term “the Big D,” she immediately demanded specificity.

    Things got saucy on “The View” Friday when Joy Behar asked a question about Donald Trump that some of the panelists immediately turned into a double entendre.

    The panel was discussing Trump’s recent consorting with far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer, who, as of late, has been reportedly traveling with the former president, despite criticism from MAGA faithful like Sen. Lindsey Graham and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

    Panelist and former Trump aide Alyssa Farah Griffin said Loomer’s presence near the former president suggest he’s not fit to serve.

    “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.”

    Joy Behar got so excited by Trump conviction that she 'started leaking'

    Behar quickly zeroed in on the “something is off” part of Griffin’s statement and asked, point-blank: “Are you saying he has the ‘Big D’?”

    Griffin responded, “I think he’s in decline,” before attempting to continue.

    However, panelist Ana Navarro heard “the Big D,” and immediately demanded Griffin be more specific.

    “Wait, wait, wait, you’ve got to clarify that,” Navarro said.

    Panelist Sunny Hostin then came to the rescue and explained that Behar was referring to “dementia.”

    Behar seemed confused at first by Navarro’s need for clarity, but quickly figured it out.

    “What are you talking about? Oh, ‘D,’ I see. Never mind,” Behar said, while some audience members tittered.

    Earlier this week, Trump spokesman Steven Cheung defended the former president from criticism, telling The New York Times that Trump “has more energy and more stamina than anyone in politics,” and that “the Democrats and Kamala are the ones who are diminished because of all the hurt they have caused this country.”

    Trump has never been diagnosed with dementia, though his nephew, Fred Trump III, said last month that the condition “runs in the family.”

    The View’s Sunny Hostin admitted that being an empty nester has been a very difficult adjustment for her.

    She opened up during an episode of The View’s “Behind the Table” podcast on Monday, September 9, about taking her daughter, Paloma Hostin, to college.

    “On August 19, I dropped my kid off at school,” the Summer on Sag Harbor author began. “And then I had a breakdown, and I’m crying in the hotel room because she cried. And had she not cried, Paloma, I would not have cried, I was almost OK. So, I’m going through that.”

    Sunny Hostin Reacts To Claims 'The View' Star Dresses 'Too Young'

    Sunny, 55, admitted that it’s “hard” being an empty nester. However, her husband, Emmanuel Hostin, has been dealing with it a bit differently than her. “He thinks it’s great,” the TV personality noted.

    In addition to Paloma, 18, Sunny and Manny share son Gabriel Hostin, 22.

    “I didn’t know that empty nesting grief was a real thing,” Sunny explained, adding that she started getting articles from her friends about it after her daughter went off to school.

    “Some women even go through depression, and they start therapy, and they’re institutionalized,” she added. “It’s a real thing because when you identify yourself as a mommy for the past 22 years and all of a sudden that changes, even though, yes, I’m a lawyer and a journalist and I’m still a mommy, but the day-to-day momification, that’s what my kids call it, where you tidy up their room and cook dinner and stuff, I’m kind of a traditional mom in that sense. I really like spending time with my children. I thought Manny did too.”

    Sunny explained that her husband has been walking around the house in a good mood lately.

    “He feels that he got his wife back. He’s like, ‘I got my wife back,’ and I’m like, ‘No, you have your wife without her children.’”

    She said that he does 40 miles of cycling at 5 a.m., takes off his clothes and makes coffee each day.

    “He just loves it so much,” Sunny said of her husband’s outlook on being an empty nester. “He’s pretty frugal, but he’s like, ‘Let’s order in. What are we having for dinner?’”

    “I’m just sitting there, like, who is this person?” she reflected. “It’s a honeymoon phase for him. A lot of my friends have told me that I need to embrace that, and so I’m trying to work on that even though I’m still feeling the grief part of it.”

    Sunny said that she spoke to Kelly Ripa about being an empty nester after her kids, Michael, Lola and Joaquin, moved out of the house she shared with husband Mark Consuelos. Kelly, 53, told her that being an empty nest was “great” and that the kids always come back to visit.

    Sunny said she texts her kids every morning now. “My daughter finally said, ‘Mom, I’m fine.’”

    “So I think that means I should stop the texting and do more stalking,” the mom of two joked.

    Travis Kelce Throws His Gloves into Crowd at Training Camp — and One Is Caught by a Young Taylor Swift Fan

    Travis Kelce is never too far from a Swiftie these days!

    In a clip posted on X (formerly Twitter) by Becky Hardin, the young fan’s aunt, Kelce walked up to a crowd of fans at practice and threw his yellow football gloves, emblazoned with his jersey number 87, over to a girl in a red Taylor Swift-inspired Chiefs T-shirt standing in the crowd.

    The girl’s family members were seen cheering and waving their arms in excitement after she caught one of the gloves. A man was then heard shouting back, “Thank you, Travis!” — as Kelce signed autographs.

    The lucky fan was snapped beaming afterward as she held up Kelce’s glove while showing off her T-shirt that read, ‘In My Red era’ — a sweet nod to both Kelce and Swift. The popular T-shirt was created and sold as merchandise by Charlie Hustle Clothing Co. following the pair’s romance last year.

    The girl’s aunt wrote of the interaction in the caption, “Travis saw my niece, wearing a Taylor @Chiefs shirt, threw his glove, missed, pointed at her, and threw again. And I was completely unhinged and lost my mind.”

    She gave thanks to Kelce, adding, “You made training camp so fun #ChiefsKingdom.”

    Other snaps shared from the sweet moment showed the young fan smiling with her eyes closed and holding up Kelce’s glove while posing with young family members at the training camp.

    Kelce’s time at training camp comes after attending a number of Swift’s Eras Tour shows across Europe over the summer.

    A source told PEOPLE last week that Kelce’s “last few concerts were bittersweet” with Swift after visiting her at her most recent tourstop in Germany.
    “They knew their time together like this was coming to an end and he made sure to spend every minute he could with Taylor,” the insider said.

    “It’s definitely tough to be apart but they do everything they can to make it work and show up for each other. They’re so in love and very, very happy together. All their friends and family can see it.”

    The source added of Kelce, who has been dating Swift for nearly a year, that now “His team and the Chiefs remain a top priority.”

    Pop star Justin Timberlake was handed a sentence of community service on Friday after he changed his plea to guilty following his arrest for drunk driving, US media reported.

    On June 18, the 43-year-old entertainer was pulled over in the town of Sag Harbor, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) east of New York City, after police observed his BMW go through a stop sign and struggle to stay within road lanes.

    Sag Harbor Village Justice Court justice Carl Irace handed Timberlake a community service sentence and ordered the star to make a public statement after the singer pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of driving while alcohol impaired, broadcaster NBC reported.

    The charge is a traffic violation that carries a fine between $300 to $500 and a 90-day license suspension.

    Timberlake told Irace that he would be willing to perform between 25 and 40 hours of community service to settle the case, NBC reported.

    “I try to hold myself to a very high standard for myself. This was not that. I found myself in a position where I could have made a different decision,” Timberlake said outside the court.

    “Even if you’ve had one drink, don’t get behind the wheel of a car, there’s so many alternatives,” added Timberlake, who wore a dark cardigan and a pearl necklace.

    “I grew up in a small town so I can appreciate and understand the strain, or unique nature, of what this must have been for the people of Sag Harbor… I’m very grateful and I thank them.”

    Sag Harbor is an upmarket community in the exclusive Hamptons, notorious for its decadent parties and a favorite destination for the rich and famous, many of whom have summer houses on Long Island.

    The officer who pulled over the “Selfish” singer said he was in no fit state to drive, although Timberlake has always insisted he had only one martini at the American Hotel during an evening with friends.

    “His eyes were bloodshot and glassy, a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage was emanating from his breath, he was unable to divide attention, he had slowed speech, he was unsteady afoot, and he performed poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests,” the police report said.

    Timberlake’s lawyer, Edward Burke Jr, said that the star was respectful during his encounter with police.

    “Contrary to what was reported, (Timberlake) wasn’t drinking other people’s drinks, or warned in advance not to drive, he wasn’t rude, he wasn’t obnoxious, he wasn’t belligerent. In fact he was polite and he was cooperative,” he said outside court.

    “His plea today to a reduced and amended non-criminal charge, which is a traffic violation, is consistent with these facts.”
