Justin Timberlake Embraces ‘It’s Gonna Be May’ Tradition with Hilarious New Video

ddsAs April ends, fans all over prepare for a fun tradition involving Justin Timberlake. Every year, as we move from April to May, social media fills up with "It's Gonna Be May" memes, thanks to how Timberlake sings a line in the 2000 hit "It's Gonna Be Me" by NSYNC. Timberlake got into the spirit this year, too, making fans and meme lovers really happy.

While getting ready for his "The Forget Tomorrow" World Tour, Timberlake took a moment to poke fun at his famous lyric twist, which many see as an annual internet holiday. On the last day of April, he posted a funny video playing along with the meme. In it, someone asks people to share words they often say wrong, and Timberlake pops in to say "Me" — a nod to how everyone jokes that he says it like "May."

This smart and funny video shows Timberlake's great sense of humor and his willingness to join in on the joke that's been part of his image since the meme first popped up on Tumblr in 2012. The meme usually shows Timberlake's face on the April 30 date, happily reminding us that May is coming.

Justin Timberlake embraces this meme, which shows his fun side and his comeback in social media and pop culture. It lets us enjoy a bit of nostalgia for the boy band days and hit songs while also seeing how artists can connect with their fans in new, memorable ways. As we start May and Timberlake prepares for his tour, this playful moment lets us all share a laugh and look forward to what's coming next.
