Newly released footage reveals Justin Timberlake struggling with sobriety tests following his June 2024 DWI arrest in New York.

The 45-year-old pop icon, who ultimately accepted a plea deal to put the incident behind him in the midst of his tour, was recorded by Sag Harbor police as he underwent a series of tests after being pulled over.

In the video, Timberlake, famous for hits like “Cry Me A River,” stands behind his car, conversing with an officer before the tests begin.

The officer instructs Timberlake on how to perform a sobriety eye test, formally known as the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (HGN) test.

Despite Timberlake’s efforts to keep the bodycam footage private, the video shows him swaying slightly during the eye test as the officer subsequently requests that he complete the walk-and-turn test.

At one point, while the officer suggests using skid marks on the road for guidance, Timberlake can be heard asking, “Do you want this one or this one?”

‘It’s going to be the one of your preference, okay?’ the officer replied, with the star adding, ‘Whatever you want man.’ 

The officer briefly stepped away as another stood nearby Timberlake – who had been amidst his Forget Tomorrow World Tour at the time. 

‘How you doing man?’ the Carry Out singer asked, and the second officer answered, ‘I’m doing good, how are you?’ 

Timberlake said, ‘Good,’ followed by a small smile as he glanced down towards the ground. 

The first officer returned and instructed Timberlake to place his left foot on the ‘imaginary line’ and then put his right foot in front. 

‘Heel to toe,’ the police officer continued. 

The singer tried to do so but quickly stumbled and the officer began to repeat the same instructions. 

‘You guys… guys,’ Timberlake suddenly said while holding his hands into the air, prompting the officer to stop speaking. ‘I’m just following my friends back to my house.’

‘I’m not, like, I’m not doing anything – I’m just following my friends back to my house,’ he continued to calmly explain. 

The officer then asked, ‘Well, will you do this test?’ and the singer replied, ‘Sure.’ 

Timberlake asked for clarification on the walk-and-turn test and said, ‘Sorry, I’ve never done this so, I’m just…’ 

He was then told to keep his arms by his side, take nine steps heel to toe, turn around and repeat the same nine steps. 

The star started to do so before the officer told him to begin and then quickly apologized. 

‘He’s going to tell you when you’re supposed to begin,’ the second officer said. ‘You’re all good! He just wants you to be in position.’

When he was told to begin, Timberlake took one step and then stumbled to the right. 

‘I’m sorry, I’m a little nervous,’ the singer told both officers, before completing the test.
