The plastic surgery rumor has been around for some time since Timberlake returned to the spotlight at the iHeartRadio Awards in March 2023. However, he has not publicly addressed it.
Justin Timberlake’s fandom divided over aging vs. bad plastic surgery
Before the iHeartRadio Awards in March 2023, Justin Timberlake had avoided public scrutiny and did not make any public appearances.
But when Justin Timberlake did come back to the spotlight, criticisms quickly flooded in regarding how different his face looked.
Many claimed that his face looked puffy with very smooth skin and pointed out something going on around his eyes. Furthermore, one tweeted, “Botox cheeks.”
