Justin Timberlake took to the stage at the Eurovision Song Contest last night to offer the first performance of smash hit single ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’ – from DreamWorks’ ‘Trolls’ soundtrack.
The pin-up turned mature megastar also served up a rousing rendition of 2002 hit ‘Rock Your Body.’
Watch the 35-year-old tackle both tracks after the jump…
That was dry toast on a Sunday morning.
Though largely inoffensive, JT’s performance style feels more more myth than substance. The choreography basic, the staging basic, the whole shabang…basic.
Strangely, folk don’t seem to catch on; which means it’ll likely continue. Sigh.

Shiddd. He did a great job. You don’t have to do Beyonce choreo to be great. He’s very consistent & makes it look easy….. He’s very talented..
Good show, I guess this is his thing, LIVE band and him kinda running around. I can see him doing THIS for a while longer, but I don’t see him dancing at all anymore. Some people are entertainers for 40 years (James Brown, MJ, Usher, Janet, Even Madonna) and others kinda fizzel down (JT, Britney, so on.)
And somme others rock it during 80yrs i mean lemon lady and, …. No one else
Wow I´m surprised at Sam being THIS hard on Justin Timberlake. It is true that at least to me, he doesn´t move me (although some of his music keeps being good). But it probably has more to do with Sam being a super Janet Jackson fan?
I loved the performance, and yes Sam is just a Janet fan, we all know what that means.
They are all bitter about the SB- Nipplegate thing, but iit’s been 12 years. It’s tso time to get over it.
This is a performer, he blow the house down, he was the real winner of Eurovision, Sam is just a hater, can’t believe you are criticizing this amazing performance while praising Beyoncé’s for her mediocre ass shaking moves, the host of this year even said that he was the greatest performer alive so clearly the people who were there were very impressed by him.
I don’t really like his new song but he did well. Now when Rock Your Body came on, I was bopping! That song is still my jam some 14 years later. Justin is one of the most CONSISTENT performers of his generation. It’s rare to see him deliver a bad showing.
If you wanna talk basic performances, look at Justin bieber. At least JT has stage presence. Bieber doesn’t even wanna be on stage, he’s worse than Britney post breakdown but yet no one has caught on.
This! That boy Bieber doesn’t wanna be on stage, doesn’t want to take photos with his fans anymore… He is TIRED of it all, lmao!
Mmmm. He did ok. But for me it’s like how do you go from murdering the VMA’s back in 2013 to this? Smh. He’s not even old and it appears he’s trying to slow down. Maybe this exposure wasn’t that creditable so he may be treating it like a tour (like some artist) and is saving his best for big exposures like the Grammy’s, VMA’s, etc. He also looks different! I just can’t put my finger on it. Almost unrecognizable. Anyways, until next performance.
Lol, sidenote: I peeped that Classic Janet Jackson move JT. He didn’t hit it as hard as she did but it was recognizable.
YASSSSSSS he stole that CLASSIC Janet arm flapping move from ESCAPADE gag gag gag. LOVED THIS . He has great energy
Lol!
The day that Justin Timberlake is considered basic is the day the world explodes. The bitterness and anger in this post is amazing. But what do u expect from a site that stans for nicki minaj….have several seats Sam. And he’d still #1 on iTunes. 8 days and counting.
I love you ?
Sam didn’t lie, he is basic.
You don’t always need to do a thousand dance steps to have a great performance..
Cool performance not bad
