In an unexpected turn of events, Justin Timberlake has completely cleared his Instagram account, leaving fans and followers in a state of surprise. This move comes after Timberlake had already restricted comments on his social media page.
On Monday, January 8th, fans noticed that the 42-year-old singer’s Instagram was devoid of all previous posts. Additionally, Timberlake has updated his profile picture to a blurry reflection in a car mirror. Despite these changes, he continues to follow 1,225 users and boasts over 72 million followers.
The reasons behind Timberlake’s social media cleanse remain a mystery, especially considering his active presence on the platform towards the end of the previous year.
This action follows a period of reduced public appearances by Timberlake after the release of his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears’ memoir, “The Woman In Me,” in October 2023. The book offers a deep dive into their past relationship, including personal revelations and accusations, which have led to significant public scrutiny and backlash towards Timberlake. Both he and his wife, Jessica Biel, had previously limited their social media interactions in response to this.
While Timberlake has not provided an explanation for his Instagram reset, it has sparked speculation among fans. Some believe it could be a hint at an upcoming new album. In September 2023, sources revealed to Page Six that Timberlake was planning to release new music and embark on a major US tour in 2024.
As the year unfolds, fans eagerly await further developments and clarity on Timberlake’s plans for 2024.
