After being arrested for driving under the influence in June in New York, Justin Timberlake became the talk of the town.
Fans of the 43-year-old started analyzing concert footage, claiming that the star was performing while intoxicated. Although some defended the artist and some journalists emphasized that these are unsubstantiated rumors, the bad press has significantly affected concert attendance.
According to the newspaper "The Sun," the American tour of the singer did not sell out entirely, and the cheapest tickets were available for as low as $9 each.
Such prices were offered by the Rupp Arena in Kentucky, which sold tickets for the star's performance as part of the Forget Tomorrow World Tour. Other venues in the States offered entry to Timberlake's performance in a similar price range, although originally, tickets cost $100 each.
People close to the artist fear that problems with the tour, combined with the lack of commercial success of his latest album, Everything I Thought I Was, are significantly burdening Justin.
