Justin Timberlake Handcuffed By Police Early Friday

The New York Post reports *NSYNC’s Justin Timberlake was handcuffed and thrown into the back of a police car early Friday morning outside the topless club VIP. Cops told Timberlake they’d gotten a disorderly conduct complaint and despite trying to talk his way out of it, cops had none of his explanation of innocence. Fortunately, the entire incident was a gag as a spy revealed, “After about 15 minutes, they said, ‘OK, that’s it.’ put handcuffs on him and put him in back of the car” – at which point all of Timberlake’s buddies started laughing and pointing at him. It turns out that they played a joke on him. Somebody who they were with was a cop, and called a couple of his buddies.”
