Justin Timberlake was arrested on drunken driving charges.
Who knew Justin Timberlake’s mugshot from his DWI arrest earlier last month on a drunk driving case could now become hot property. The police mugshot of the singer on being arrested in Sag Harbor now has a crazy price tag with people eyeing to buy it.
According to reports, a local Romany Kramoris Gallery saw some merit in Justin Timberlake’s mugshot and put a price on it which actually become a fruitful deal for them as people got interested in buying it. Several reports suggest that the gallery has since seen long queues to get a glimpse of the picture and photograph it.
Causing such a furore on the social media and outside the gallery, the picture has now been turned into a “limited edition piece” by artist Godfrey Lohman. Lohman introduced his artwork to the Romany Kramoris Gallery. The gallery is situated in Sag Harbor, the same place where the singer was arrested while returning from a party with friends before being arrested.
The gallery plans to showcase Timberlake's mugshot pieces, which are priced at $520, throughout the summer. The art piece is called “Tuesday Night Out featuring Justin Timberlake.”
Justin Timberlake was arrested for drunk driving in the middle of his concert. When the police officer arrested him, Justin apparently told him that it would ruin his tour to which the officer replied, “what kind?” as he couldn’t recognise him. This led to a flood of memes on social media since the officer failed to recognise who Justin was.
As for the photograph, it was a photo provided by the Sag Harbor New York Police Department on June 18, 2024. Justin was charged earlier that day in a village in New York's Hamptons, after police said he ran a stop sign and drove out of his lane. Also read: Singer claimed he had only one martini
