Justin Timberlake has revealed he’s been battling Lyme disease, calling the experience “relentlessly debilitating.” The pop star opened up about his condition while reflecting on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, saying he pushed through nerve pain and extreme fatigue, even performing with bronchitis and laryngitis. Timberlake admitted he hesitated to speak out but wanted to clarify why some shows were canceled or seemed off.
He credited his wife Jessica Biel and their children for supporting him through the ordeal. Lyme disease, spread by ticks, can cause long-term complications if not treated early. Timberlake now joins a growing list of celebrities using their platforms to raise awareness about the illness. Despite the challenges, he says performing still brings him joy—and he hopes sharing his story will help others.
