Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake has been at the center of major headlines this week, largely due to a dramatic personal revelation and the conclusion of a challenging chapter in his career. Wrapping up his two-year Forget Tomorrow World Tour with a final show in Istanbul, Timberlake took to Instagram to reveal that he has been quietly battling Lyme disease throughout the tour, describing the illness as relentlessly debilitating and explaining how it was responsible for the nerve pain, fatigue, and lackluster performances that fans and critics have noted in recent weeks. This was his most open admission yet about his health—he said that while he was raised to keep struggles private, he felt compelled to share in order to shed light on his behind-the-scenes battle and to create a sense of connection with both fans and others experiencing the disease. ABC News reports that his social media post has drawn hundreds of thousands of likes and brought widespread attention to Lyme disease, with many in the media and Lyme community applauding his newfound transparency.His announcement comes after significant backlash from fans, particularly following a viral performance at a Romanian festival where Timberlake was accused of phoning it in. The National and the LA Times both recount how video clips circulated on platforms like Instagram and TikTok, showing low-energy stage presence and little crowd engagement. Fans voiced an increasing sense of disappointment, with some demanding refunds and describing the shows as emotionally detached, especially compared to the vibrant concert experiences that are now the standard for major touring artists.Compounding this, Timberlake's recent personal history has also resurfaced: he had already postponed several shows last year due to health issues including bronchitis and laryngitis, and earlier this year he pled guilty to a lesser charge following a DWI arrest in the Hamptons, earning him a suspended license and community service. Despite these setbacks, Timberlake pushed through and completed the tour—a decision that he says was guided by the joy of performing and the desire to connect with fans, even as he now admits to being unsure what the future holds for his stage career.On the business front, the Economic Times pegs Timberlake's net worth at around $250 million, fueled by his diverse ventures including his William Rast clothing line, tequila brand Sauza 901, and various investments in sports and real estate. Social media continues buzzing over his health disclosure, with fans and public figures offering support as Timberlake hints at a new chapter of increased openness and possibly advocacy. The last few days have clearly marked a significant, if tumultuous, moment of transition for one of pop's most resilient figures.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

What if I told you that the traits you need to get ahead are the exact opposite of what you've been told most of your life? What if instead, I told you that in order to be successful you need to be Weird, Selfish, Shameless, Obsessed, Nosy, Manipulative, Brutal, Reckless, and Bossy? Well, that's what former Google leader and top career coach, Jenny Wood recommends. Jenny counters conventional wisdom about achieving your goals, and she gives us permission to ditch our fear and chase after what we want - unapologetically. But to do so, takes courage – what Jenny calls, Wild Courage, and that's the basis of her New York Times Bestseller Wild Courage: Go After What You Want and Get It. Jenny's journey is fascinating, from rising through the ranks at a global behemoth like Google to empowering others to take bold ownership of their careers with her work and her new book.

Host Bill Reichart talks to Dr. Scott Armistead about the cost of convictions and courage within medicine.

Todaywe'll be looking at the last verses of Luke 23:50-56. As we look at thispassage of scripture, we learn that Joseph of Arimathea was also one of theseven meetings that Jesus had in this chapter with other people. Remember Hemet with Pilate and He met with Herod. On the way to the crucifixion, He metwith Simon of Cyrene who helped carry His cross. It was then that He spoke tothe women of Jerusalem. He spoke to the thief on the cross saying, “Todayyou'll be with Me in Paradise.” And then of course there was His Fatherthat He conversed with while He was on the cross. Now,this chapter ends with Christ being taken down off the cross by a man namedJoseph of Arimathea. Only the Gospel of John tells us that there was anotherperson involved with the burial of Jesus, and that was Nicodemus. Johnintroduces him in John chapter 3. In John 7:50, Nicodemus speaks up for Jesusin one of the council meetings when they're trying to condemn Him. And ofcourse, we believe that neither Joseph of Arimathea nor Nicodemus was presentaccording to Mark 14:64 when “all the council” voted to condemned Jesusto death; they must not have been there because they were a part of thatSanhedrin, and they would not have voted to condemn Jesus. Accordingto the Gospel of John 19:38-42, we also notice that this tomb where they buriedJesus was in a garden nearby the place where He was crucified. We believe thatit's very possible that this is a tomb that Joseph had previously prepared forJesus. He and Nicodemus had read the Scriptures. They had studied the fact thatthe Christ would die He would rise again. And they knew it was only a temporaryplace to bury the body of Jesus. It was a borrowed tomb in a sense, but it wasspecially prepared by Joseph for Jesus nearby. Joseph would have prepared hisown tomb in his home city close to where he lived. So we believe Joseph ownedthis tomb and he prepared it for Jesus.  Andwe also know that this burial fulfilled the Scripture. We believe that it ispossible Nicodemus and Joseph had studied the Scriptures in Isaiah 53:9, andalso knew that it says that the Messiah “made His grave with the rich in Hisdeath”. And so they fulfilled that Scripture. When Jesus died, Joseph isready to go immediately to Pilate. Nicodemus is part of helping have everythingready. Because they would not have been able to go shopping for these items onPassover, Joseph and Nicodemus must have already purchased the things that wereneeded for the burial of Christ, the fine linen that they wrapped Him and the hundredpounds of myrrh and aloes to anoint His body (John 19:38-44).  Itwas very important that Jesus be buried by people that would know He was deadbecause His death and resurrection are the very essence of the Gospel. Theproof was evidenced by the fact that men like these, men of character andintegrity were the ones who took His body off the cross and buried Him. Ifthere were any doubt about His death or burial, that could affect the messageand the ministry of the Gospel (1 Corinthians 15:1-8). Italso might be interesting to remember that in Genesis 2:1-3, after six days, Godfinished the work of the “old Creation” and He rested. Now after six hours onthe cross, Jesus finished the work of the “new Creation” (2 Corinthians 5:17),and He rested on the Sabbath in Joseph's tomb.  And because Christ's resurrection, three dayslater, we know that we can experience this new life in Jesus Christ and alsofind our “rest and peace” in Him! ThankGod for people that stand up for Jesus like Joseph and Nicodemus and were partof this very powerful story of the death, burial, and resurrection of JesusChrist. God bless you as you meditate on these things today. Are you willing tobe identified with the resurrected Savior today? Godbless!

In this episode of Why We Vote, CannCon and Ashe in America are joined by Colonel Shawn Smith for a powerful and sobering conversation about the systemic breakdown of election integrity in the United States. Colonel Smith lays out how key security measures, chain of custody, physical ballot controls, machine audits, and software transparency, have been steadily abandoned across counties and states. He warns that elections are now untrustworthy by design, not by accident. Drawing from real-world examples and battlefield-tested leadership, Colonel Smith urges Americans to reject the comforting illusion that someone else is fixing the problem. Instead, he calls for civic courage and mass local engagement, arguing that only organized citizens can restore trust in the vote. The discussion dismantles the myth of risk-limiting audits, challenges the blind faith in state institutions, and highlights how fear and apathy have paralyzed action in the face of obvious fraud. Blunt, urgent, and deeply motivating, this episode issues a clear call: get involved now, or surrender your voice forever.
