Tennessee-born pop icon, Justin Timberlake will be taking his euphoric ‘Forget Tomorrow World Tour’ to the UK for an entertaining show at the O2 Arena in London. The Popstar is currently embarking on the UK leg of the tour with performances at Birmingham and Manchester.
Timberlake has had a bit of a tough year with headlines surrounding his marriage with Jessica Biel as well as his arrest for suspected drunk driving.
Despite this, the Man of the Woods will be thrilling fans at the O2 with a setlist that includes songs from a combination of old school albums including ‘Magna Carta Holy Grail’ down to his latest album, ‘Everything I Thought It Was’.
During an appearance on ‘The Saturday Night Show’, the 43-year-old revealed his much-anticipated tour, ‘The Forget Tomorrow Tour.’ This marks his first tour in five years, set to support his sixth studio album, ‘Everything I Thought It Was’, which was released earlier this year.
The tour kicked off on April 29, 2024, in Vancouver, Canada, and is scheduled to wrap up in Kansas City on December 20, 2024.
As anticipated, this tour is set to be another exceptional musical journey with Justin and his band, the Tennessee Kids. The setlist will feature a total of 30 songs, including ‘Sanctified’, ‘Infinity Sex’, ‘Drown’, ‘Cry Me a River’, ‘Señorita’, ‘Selfish’, ‘Good Times’, and ‘Mirrors’, among others.
Will NSYNC perform at the O2?
In 2023, ‘Trolls Band Together’, the famous chapter in the renowned franchise, delivered an unexpected and delightful surprise: Justin Timberlake reunited with NSYNC to release their first new song in 20 years. The soulful and funky track, ‘Better Place,’’ showcased the group’s undeniable chemistry and sparked renewed excitement among fans for potential future collaborations.
Fortunately, fans didn’t have to wait long for more from NSYNC. The group is one of three featured artists on Timberlake’s ‘Everything I Thought It Was’ album, appearing on the smooth and breezy track ‘Paradise’. Those lucky enough to attend Timberlake’s exclusive ‘One Night Only’ concert at The Wiltern in Los Angeles on March 13 were treated to a historic moment—the first NSYNC performance in over a decade. The group debuted “Paradise” live and also delighted the audience with four classic NSYNC hits.
While the NSYNC are not included among the guest performers at the O2, Timberlake usually comes up with a couple of surprises and the show at Wembley might just be a lucky chance of having the band performing together again.
New releases
Earlier this year, the ‘Señorita’ singer unveiled his new track ‘Drown’ through RCA Records. The song was co-written by Timberlake alongside Louis Bell (known for his work with Taylor Swift and Post Malone), Henry Walter, Amy Allen, and Kenyon Dixon, with production handled by Timberlake, Bell, and Cirkut (who has collaborated with Maroon 5 and The Weeknd).
Timberlake also released his single and music video ‘Selfish’, which quickly amassed over 57 million global streams and more than 14 million views on YouTube. Additionally, he made a special appearance as a musical guest on NBC’s ‘Saturday Night Live’, where he performed “Selfish” and “Sanctified” featuring Tobe Nwigwe.
Now at the European leg of his tour in the UK, Timberlake is set to perform fan-favourite hits alongside tracks from his upcoming album ‘Everything I Thought It Was’, including “Selfish” and his latest single “Drown.”
Fans at the O2 will be anticipating performances of his freshest songs including his newly released songs this year as well as a blend of some old-school hits that thrilled radio and TV stations in the early 2000’s.
What to expect from Timberlake’s performance at the O2
His multifaceted talent has undoubtedly played a pivotal role in the triumph of his ongoing world tour. It’s one thing to be a gifted musician, but it’s entirely different to shine as an entertainer. Similar to Taylor Swift, who has ascended to billionaire status through her music and dynamic performances, the combination of vocal prowess and engaging stage presence is crucial for sustained success in the music industry.
In his concerts, Justin has proven himself to be a phenomenal entertainer. He stands out as one of the few artists who seamlessly assimilate their audiences into vibing to every lyric and dancing to every beat. Since kick-starting the European leg of his tour at the Tauron Arena in Poland, highlights from his concerts showcase his ability to deliver energy in each performance without missing a single lyric or beat with rhythmic actions.
He exudes a powerful stage presence that mirrors his evolution within the industry, transforming his concerts into unforgettable experiences for his fans. This distinct energy keeps his audience returning, as no one quite matches the performance Justin delivers.
The UK leg of his tour includes stops at the Utilita Arena in Birmingham, and Co-op Live in Manchester before rounding it up with a highly anticipated showstopping performance at the O2 Arena in London.
