Pop icon Justin Timberlake was arrested for a DWI earlier this week in Sag Harbor, New York, according to breaking reports.
As per ABC, the news was confirmed by a law enforcement official who said that the Cry Me A River star was taken into custody on Monday night.
Timberlake is said to be due in court today (Tuesday, June 18), though the circumstances of his arrest have not yet been made public.
The popular singer, 43, has two planned concerts in Chicago this weekend, as well as two shows in New York City next week.
This year sees Timberlake on his Forget Tomorrow world tour, included in which are dates in the US, Germany, the UK, and France.

Though further details about his reported DWI arrest aren’t yet forthcoming, this is the second time in the past few months that Timberlake has courted controversy.
Last year Britney Spears’ memoir The Woman In Me outlined how Justin had requested she have an abortion when she fell pregnant while the two were dating.
The weeks following the revelation saw Timberlake widely criticized in the media and on social media platforms, particularly since it was also reported that he had then dumped Spears as she was filming a music video.
