Justin Timberlake is finding a little humor in a dark situation. On Saturday, the singer took the stage at Boston's TD Garden for his Forget Tomorrow World Tour and made a joke about driving following his DWI arrest on June 18. In a clip shared across social media, the 43-year-old "Selfish" singer stands on stage as he addresses the crowd.
