Justin Timberlake brought his The Forget Tomorrow World Tour to the Moody Center in Austin, Texas on Saturday night, where he abruptly stopped the show due to a fan in need.
The 43-year-old singer was performing his 2002 solo hit Cry Me A River on Saturday night, but at the end of the song he noticed a fan in need, which comes just after Taylor Swift stopped her Paris show to help a fan as well.
The singer was motioning to security guards towards the end of the song, but when it ended he paused the show and asked for the house lights to be turned up.

‘Sorry everybody, one second, one second. We need some assistance right here about five rows back,’ Timberlake said from the stage, via video from TikTok’s Lion Latch.
He waited for a few moments and said, ‘Oh are you OK?’ before giving a thumbs up and saying, ‘Oh, no problem.’
