Justin Timberlake to release new album ‘Everything I Thought It Was,’ perform on ‘SNL’
Timberlake’s return to the stage follows the Thursday release of his new song “Selfish,” the lead single off his forthcoming sixth album “Everything I Thought It Was.” The album, which marks Timberlake’s first LP since 2018’s “Man of the Woods,” is set for a March 15 release.
The “Cry Me a River” singer teased his touring comeback with a hometown show at the Orpheum in Memphis, Tennessee, on Jan. 19.
