Justin Timberlake abruptly stops Texas concert to help a fan in crowd

JT to the rescue.

Justin Timberlake briefly paused his concert at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, on Saturday to help a fan in need.

The incident was captured on video and shared on TikTok by a fellow audience member.

Timberlake, 43, was performing “Cry Me a River” on stage when he noticed that somebody in the crowd needed assistance, so he tried to get the security’s attention to help.

Security rushed towards the person in the crowd that Timberlake was pointing to.

“House lights up, thank you!” the superstar said as his show came to a halt.

“Sorry everybody one second… we need some assistance right here about five rows back,” he added.

After a few seconds, Timberlake was alerted that the situation wasn’t serious.

“Are we OK? No, no problem!” Timberlake said.

“OK, we’re OK,” he added while smiling and clapping.

The crowd cheered as Timberlake carried on with his concert.

An eyewitness told TMZ that the fan returned to their seat after staff members checked on them.

Paramedics were not called to the venue, the eyewitness confirmed.

The Post reached out to Timberlake’s rep for comment.

Timberlake is on his The Forget Tomorrow World Tour following the release of his sixth studio album, “Everything I Thought I Was,” on March 15.

The tour began April 29 in Vancouver and is scheduled to end December 20 in Kansas City. Timberlake has shows in Forth Worth, Tulsa, Atlanta, Raleigh, Tampa, Miami, Chicago, New York City and Boston for the rest of the month.

Timberlake’s latest album, his first in six years, received mixed reviews from critics.

It debuted at No. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100, but a month later, it had fallen off Billboard Hot 200 altogether.

A factor that seemed to have contributed to Timberlake’s lessening popularity was his involvement in the negative press surrounding last year’s release of Britney Spears’ memoir.

The “Toxic” singer opened up for the first time about their tumultuous three-year relationship that was marred by an alleged abortion at Timberlake’s suggestion and his alleged cheating with “another celebrity.”

In “The Woman In Me,” Spears, 42, revealed the abortion she had at 19 was Timberlake’s idea, because he didn’t want to be a father.

“I’m sure people will hate me for this, but I agreed not to have the baby. I don’t know if that was the right decision,” she wrote. “If it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it. And yet Justin was so sure that he didn’t want to be a father.”

After receiving backlash for the shocking revelation, Timberlake chose to publicly state that he’d “like to take this opportunity to apologize — to absolutely f—ing nobody,” during his concert at Irving Plaza in February.

Timberlake hasn’t commented on Spears’ memoir any further.
