Justin Came and I Screamed.

Mmmm I love me some Justin Timberlake. Last night was his concert at Madison Square Garden and I have to say, the boy can put on a show. It was definitely one of the better concerts I have ever been to…and not just because him and Andy Samberg came out in full costume (including strategically placed presents) to recreate “D*** in a Box.” And yes, you read that correctly. We had read that it was a possibility in a tip from Page Six…but I dared not dream the dream. Nor did A. But sometimes, dreams do come true and I actually missed the beginning of the song because I was screaming so damn loud from excitement.

When Justin first came out on stage he was wearing a three-piece white suit and he came up from the middle of the stage. I’m a bit ashamed but I believe I did yell “I love you and I will have all of your children!” while trying to keep my tears of excitement in check. And I did text that to my mom as well. Insert sad face here. But not that sad…because I totally would.

The concert was divided into two halves by an intermission. In the middle of the first half, Timbaland came out and joined JT for a song. I nearly died. I love me some Timbaland. Then at intermission, Tim DJ’d for like 25 minutes!!!! He threw in Missy and Nelly Furtado (natch) but totally mixed it up as well. The whole Garden was on its feet and dancing, it was so awesome. What was not awesome was the line for the girl’s bathroom at intermission, so I ran into the boys bathroom because it was totally empty, only to be greeted by a security guard on the way out who did not appear happy that I had done that. I had a brief moment of panic, picturing myself getting thrown out of MSG because I couldn’t be bothered to find another bathroom…but, I put on my best innocent face, told the guard I was sooo sorry, that it wouldn’t happen again, and gave him a little shoulder squeeze/hug. He seemed placated. I ran back to my seat before he could change his mind.

He played all my faves including Senorita, Like I Love You, Gone (from the N’Sync days…mmmm N’Sync), SexyBack, Damn Girl and What Goes Around…among others from both the new and old albums.

It was also rumored that Britney might be in the audience, and though I didn’t care to search for her, I hope she was there, took a good look around, realized that her career is over, and went home and tried to kill herself. I’m just kidding, that’s a horrible thing to say. I hope she just went home and cried herself to sleep after snorting some coke (it’s true ya’ll) and making sure the nannies are raising the kids just fine.

All in all, probably the best $68 ever spent.
