The Bachelor star Ashley Iaconetti had a dream encounter with Justin Timberlake at one of his recent gigs.
Via Instagram, the 36-year-old unveiled a 74-second clip from the exact moment she and “Rock Your Body” hitmaker Timberlake, 43, exchanged heartwarming words during a break between songs.
This magical moment has since gone viral, with over 1 million people checking it out.
Introducing the video to her 1.3 million followers, Iaconetti wrote as a caption: “Ladies, my one minute and fourteen-second conversation with Justin Timberlake. A fan girl fairy tale. Thank you to those who taped this moment and for this sweet edit @nsynchq.”
Walking across the stage, Timberlake spotted a sign in the crowd claiming its owner had delivered Iaconetti’s young son Dawson on the singer’s birthday. Now clutching the sign herself, the reality TV personality directly spoke to Timberlake, informing him that her mom also shared the same birthday.
“I love this family already!” he said, taken aback by the snowballing coincidence.
After learning that Dawson loves his music, Timberlake then asked Iaconetti to “tell Dawson that I said hello” before quipping: “all I can think of is Dawson’s Creek now…”
Whilst this special moment played out on screen, the excited concert attendee had some reflective wording overlaid across it, which began with: “One of the greatest moments of my life!!! I think I can say I’ve officially met Justin Timberlake! The musician who catapulted my love for pop music and fandoms!
“It was so special that the conversation was about my son, who has been truly dancing and singing to his music since he was a year old. Justin has brought me joy in so many ways for 25 years now! I can’t believe this memory was made in front of so many people on the Jumbotron at the arena I saw him perform at so many times in my youth. It was perfect.”
She also revealed that she’d shown the footage to a “starstruck” Dawson back at home.
Meanwhile, one of the many social media comments came from Timberlake’s bandmate from the NSYNC days, Lance Bass, who joked: “Are you cheating on me??!!”
The bucket list chat was not lost on fellow stars of The Bachelor either, with both Hannah Brown and Becca Tilley sharing: “I am so happy for you!! This is so cool!” and “Omg! This is crazy!!!!!”
“This is a huge moment for bachelor nation”, “Omg this is amazing!!” and “This literally made my night! I’m so happy this happened to you!!” read three reactions from the public.
