Justin Timberlake has postponed yet another performance on his *Forget Tomorrow World Tour* after sustaining a back injury during a recent show in New Orleans. The 43-year-old artist announced on Saturday that his Dec. 2 concert at Oklahoma City’s Paycom Center would be canceled as he focuses on recovery. Despite the setback, Timberlake remains committed to delivering the dynamic performances that have defined his career, leaving fans hopeful for the continuation of the tour.
“I’m so sorry, Oklahoma City,” Timberlake shared in an Instagram Story. “I hurt my back in NOLA, and my doctors have instructed me to rest a little longer. I hate doing this, but thank you for your support.” He ended the message with gratitude for fans’ understanding. This marks the third disruption to the tour’s schedule in recent months.
The *Forget Tomorrow World Tour*, supporting Timberlake’s latest album *Everything I Thought It Was*, is his first major tour in five years. Covering the U.S., South America, Europe, and the U.K., the tour is scheduled to extend into 2025, incorporating postponed dates from earlier in the year. Fans have eagerly awaited the tour, which highlights Timberlake’s growth as a pop and R&B icon.

In addition to his health challenges, Timberlake faced legal issues earlier this year. In September, he resolved a DWI charge, pleading guilty and receiving a $500 fine along with 25 hours of community service. Despite the distraction, Timberlake has remained focused on his music and his fans.
The tour has also drawn attention from his former *N’Sync* bandmates. Joey Fatone attended one of Timberlake’s shows, sharing his experience online, while Lance Bass recently recalled that Diddy’s advice encouraged Timberlake to pursue a solo career, ultimately leading to the group’s breakup.
