Justin Timberlake Spots Martin Scorsese From Stage In NYC: 'The GOAT Came To See Me'

The singer, who was charged with driving while intoxicated last week, interrupted his concert Tuesday to laud Scorsese.

Justin Timberlake doesn’t stop for anyone — save for the police and Martin Scorsese.

The Grammy winner was mid-concert Tuesday in New York City when he paused to announce that the “GOAT,” or greatest of all time, was among the crowd at Madison Square Garden. The “Goodfellas” director, meanwhile, endearingly leaned into the moment.

“I hope this doesn’t embarrass him too much, but I’m sorry man, I gotta do this,” Timberlake said onstage Tuesday, per footage on social media. “The GOAT came to see me, the one and only Martin Scorsese. So many family and friends but … I see some new faces, too.”

The filmmaker reacted in perfect comedic timing with a wry smile while readjusting his glasses. It remains unclear whether he’s a bona fide fan, however, or if his daughter Francesca — whose TikTok videos Scorsese frequently stars in — dragged him to the show.

Timberlake, whose wife Jessica Biel was also spotted in the crowd, certainly seemed to cherish the encounter regardless. The singer is set to conclude his New York City dates of the Forget Tomorrow World Tour with one more show Wednesday at the Garden.
