Over the last few months, fans have demanded refunds following a string of ’embarrassing and bare minimum’ shows.

As he took to the stage over the weekend, fans demanded the popstar ‘needs a break to recharge’ following the brutal backlash he has received.
Sharing their support, fans wrote: ‘I can’t believe it’s almost over! Going to miss you so much, but I know you are TIRED!!! So rest up good and we can do it all over again!’,
‘I saw you in Atlanta in November and you were amazing. Best concert I’ve been to. I think you just need a break and to recharge. You’ve been doing this tour for a year’,

‘This day was truly unforgettable a priceless emotion and a childhood dream come true.❤️❤️’
However, some fans continued to share their fury on social media after attending his shows over the last month.
Some comments read: ‘Why he treating performing like a side job?!’, ‘How many words did you sing?’, ‘Did he sing finally?’,
‘When are the audience getting paid for their performance?’,
‘Imagine paying $600 to watch the crowd at a Justin Timberlake concert sing his songs’
‘Justin Timberlake really thought he could do the bare minimum & get away with it? Nah. People didn’t drop $500 to watch a lifeless karaoke act. No energy, no vocals, just vibes gone wrong. The crowd walking out says it all. It’s mediocre performance. It’s time to stop!’
MailOnline has contacted Justin’s representatives for comment.
Daily Mail exclusively revealed the drama behind his controversial concerts… and why his wife Jessica Biel is pleading with him to give up touring amid the brutal backlash.

One insider told the Daily Mail that the SexyBack singer is ‘in a rut’ amid his flailing tour and desperately ‘needs to do something new.’
After he played Romania, a viral TikTok received 460,000 likes after a fan who paid ‘a lot of money’ to see him called him ‘an absolute disappointment.’
The Social Network star was late getting onstage, and then apparently only sang about five words of each song, according to concert-goers. He also wore glasses and a hat, so the audience couldn’t see him, leading many to walk out in anger.
‘You can’t be singing two songs and then taking a break,’ the content creator said, calling his behaviour ‘rude’ and ‘disrespectful,’ before asking him to ‘rethink’ the concept behind his tour. The ‘lacklustre’ performance was so embarrassing that multiple fans demanded a refund.
In Dublin, his performance was much the same, as showcased by videos of Justin dropping the mic and simply walking around the stage lazily, without doing the dance moves he’s known for.
The same insider divulged that Justin ‘wants to create new music and to do something he hasn’t done yet’ but feels stuck singing the same old songs he’s been performing for decades, leaving him unmotivated.
While there have been murmurs that he would reunite with his boy band NSYNC, it has yet to come to fruition. The reunion rumors reached a fever pitch as their former competitors the Backstreet Boys reunited at the Las Vegas Sphere as part of a historic residency.
In fact, fans online begged Justin to rejoin his former boy band, joking that if he wanted to sing so little during his recent tour dates, he should at least have the others join him onstage.

‘It’s embarrassing how he’s been basically doing karaoke,’ the insider agreed. ‘He knows that he’s lost his mojo and he really wants it back.’
A separate source weighed in on the state of his marriage, and how the tour has been leading to issues with his actress wife. The couple share two children, Silas, 10, and Phineas, four.
‘Jessica thinks Justin has aged years since he started The Forget Tomorrow World Tour last April,’ the insider claimed.
Jessica, 43, has seen ‘how it has taken its toll on him, not just physically but emotionally.’
Justin’s devoted wife has stood by him amid multiple high-profile controversies, including in 2019, when he was caught holding hands with actress Alisha Wainwright during a night out in New Orleans.
Now, Jessica is worried that he’s ‘taken on way too much,’ with the insider adding that ‘he’s no longer a twentysomething who can fly around the world doing concert after concert.’
