Justin Timberlake’s red-eyed appearance at a Las Vegas concert has sparked concern in the wake of the star’s recent DWI arrest.
Timberlake’s eyes looked sore and tired – but his expression seemed startlingly alert – during a concert in Vegas last month.
Footage of his appearance has re-emerged in the wake of Tuesday’s arrest, which saw the 43 year-old singer pulled over in his BMW X7 as he left The American Hotel in the Hamptons town of Sag Harbor.
Footage shows Timberlake singing and interacting with cheering fans during his The Forget Tomorrow World Tour concert in Sin City.
But what might seem like a fun celebrity moment has instead left fans distressed as eagle-eyed viewers were quick to notice the singer’s bleary eyes.

The musician appeared shell-shocked as he looked straight ahead and had handcuffs on. After a brief arraignment where he was banned from driving for a year in New York, he was released without bail, emerging from court wearing a baseball cap.

He is next in court on July 26. There have not been any real reports of drugs being in his system.
Justin has admitted to using illicit substances numerous times over the years.
