One Justin Timberlake fan didn't think to look up when the pop artist serenaded her on the Montreal stop of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour.

The surprise happened last Friday (October 4) at Montreal's Bell Centre, where the 10-time Grammy winner was performing "Flame" from his latest album, Everything I Thought It Was. In a TikTok captured from the moment, Timberlake bent down to sing to one distracted fan who was on her phone. By the time someone nudged the woman to get her attention, Timberlake walked off while she tried to grab him, visibly disappointed in missing her chance.

But another special woman got the former NSYNC member's full attention that night. During the same concert, Timberlake gave a 12-year anniversary shoutout to wife, actress Jessica Biel, with whom he shares two sons, Silas, 9, and Phineas, 4.

"It's also a very special evening for me," Timberlake said in the concert recap Instagram reel below. "My wife is here tonight. And tonight is our 12-year anniversary."

"So be nice to her, Montreal, because she's sharing me with all of you guys tonight," he added. "I love you, baby."

The North American leg of the Forget Tomorrow Tour continues until it wraps on December 20th in Kansas City, followed by additional U.S. and international 2025 dates beginning with Portland, Oregon on January 13. The tour began in the spring, but in June, Timberlake caught a DWI charge in the Hamptons, for which he took a plea deal involving a drunk driving PSA.
