NEW ORLEANS — Justin Timberlake performed for a packed house at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans Tuesday evening.

Mid-show, as he slowed things  down, Timberlake stopped to wish Drew Brees a Happy Birthday. Joking that he hoped the QB was, “resting.”

He also lead the arena in multiple #WHODAT chants as he bounced along the stage.

In addition to his opening act, Canadian pop star Francesco Yates, wearing a Drew Brees jersey throughout his 30-minute set… Timberlake and DJ Freestyle Steve paid tribute to New Orleans by welcoming Choppa to perform before Timberlake took the stage around 8:30pm.
