Justin Timberlake Apologizes For Viral DC “Beat Ya Feet” Dancing Routine
Taking to his official Instagram account, Justin jokingly apologized by uploading two clips on his Story.
Justin said, “I wanna apologize for two reasons.” He then points the camera to each of his feet and adds, “I had a long talk with both of them, individually. And said, ‘Don’t you ever do that to me again.’”
Justin then begins to think of what could have contributed to his poor dancing on stage that night. He explains, “Maybe it was the khakis… it was a real khaki vibe.“
Justin then ends his apology by telling fans, “I’m going to make this up to you. I’m going to focus, on these two guys right here. And get ‘em right. love y’all.”
Justin Timberlake Goes Viral After Awkward Dancing At DC Festival
Now as a refresher, almost a week ago, Justin was caught performing on stage at a performance in Washington, D.C. during the music festival, ‘Something in the Water.’
On June 18, the 41 year old entertainer went viral after fans captured him awkwardly dancing to one of the area’s famous dance styles called “Beat Ya Feet.”
Justin was dressed in a short sleeve button down shirt with casual khaki pants and orange sneakers. Before busting out some moves and trying to do the Beat Ya Feet dance — which has been very popular in the DMV (D.C., Maryland, Virginia) area for more than 20 years — the singer said “D.C., Beat Ya Feet!”
Fans React To Justin Timberlake Going Viral Over Awkward Dancing At DC Festival
However, fans at the venue and later online, were not impressed with JT’s skills at all, as those online began mocking him.
One Twitter user critiqued JT and said, “Justin Timberlake said ‘DC beat your feet’ and proceeded to do the hokey pokey.”
Other critics on TikTok went on to mock JT and after he reposted a clip of a little girl freestyle dancing, users commented their critiques in the caption. One TikTok user said, “She did it better than JT.” Jokingly poking back at the bear, JT said, “I don’t disagree.”
In another TikTok moment, JT shared a video of a fan recreating his awkward dancing routine, step by step, in khakis and everything. Taking a liking to the mockery, JT simple wrote, “Nailed it.”
