Taking the stage for first time in over a year, singer joins rapper for “Rock Your Body” and “Body”
Justin Timberlake returned to the stage for the first time in over a year as surprise guest at Don Toliver’s Miami concert on Saturday.
Earlier this year, Toliver’s sampled Timberlake’s 2003 hit “Rock Your Body” for his own single “Body,” and at Kaseya Arena Saturday, Timberlake appeared alongside Toliver to perform both of those tracks:
Timberlake’s appearance marked the first time the singer has performed onstage since July 30, 2025, when his Forget Tomorrow world tour concluded in Istanbul, Turkey.
Prior to that, that tour was marred by a myriad of health-related postponements and cancelations, ranging from injury to “some kind of bug” to laryngitis and bronchitis to a “debilitating” Lyme disease diagnosis. (The tour also took place in the aftermath of his June 2024 DWI arrest.)
“When I first got the [Lyme disease] diagnosis, I was shocked for sure. But, at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness,” Timberlake wrote when the tour concluded. “I was faced with a personal decision. Stop touring? Or, keep going and figure it out. I decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I’m so glad I kept going.”
After a year offstage and largely out of the spotlight, it appears Timberlake has recuperated and ready to perform once again, as evidenced by his cameo Saturday in Miami.
