Justin Timberlake had a word with his dancing feet and an apology for the folks of D.C.! On Wednesday, the 41-year-old “Can’t Stop the Feeling” singer took to his Instagram Stories to offer a hilarious explanation for the moves he busted out in the now-viral clip from his appearance at the Something in the Water festival.
For those who missed it, on Saturday, Timberlake took the stage with Pharrell and performed some of his biggest hits including "Like I Love You," "Rock Your Body" and "Senorita," before ending his set with “SexyBack” during the event, which was held in Washington, D.C.
Toward the end of the performance, Timberlake -- who wore a button-down shirt, khakis and sneakers -- yelled “D.C. Beat Your Feet,” before launching into a set of awkward movements that left his feet shuffling across the stage.
On Wednesday, Timberlake had two things to blame. “D.C., I want to apologize to you for two reasons. Here and here,” he said as he panned the camera down to his feet. “I had a long talk with both of them, individually, and said, ‘Don’t you ever do that to me again.’”
Looking at the camera, the GRAMMY-winning musician continued, this time blaming his outfit. “Maybe it was the khakis, it was a real khakis vibe. I’m gonna make this up to you. I’m gonna focus on these two guys right here,” he said pointing down to his shoes.
“And get them right. Love y’all.”
Fans, and natives of D.C. who are familiar with Beating Your Feet -- which is typically done to Go-Go music -- quickly and hilariously made the clip go viral. Timberlake was a good sport as he shared some of the videos, including one by dancer and content creator, Corey O'Brien, -- along with hilarious comments on his Instagram Stories -- following his apology.
Next time Timberlake breaks out a set of regional moves, his feet will be ready!

Caucasian Knot | Users of the social network demanded an apology for a tourist dance in a dress at the entrance to Grozny
this message (material) was created and (or) widespread by a foreign media that performs the functions of a foreign agent, and (or) a Russian legal entity that performs the functions of a foreign agent.
A video showing a man in a pink dress dancing at the entrance to Grozny caused indignation among netizens. Some commentators on Instagram* noted that he should apologize for his behavior, others indicated that tourists should be explained the rules of behavior in Chechnya. nine0003
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that the practice of public apologies adopted in Chechnya at the suggestion of Ramzan Kadyrov has spread to other regions of Russia. In particular, on August 5, a resident of Moscow apologized for a video with obscene comments, in which a resident of Chechnya walks along a Moscow beach with weapons. The Muscovite admitted that he was "guilty about the Chechen people" and promised that this would not happen again. DJ wearing Chechen clothes and headdress while performing dance music 19August, apologized for his behavior.
Residents of Chechnya itself also regularly ask for forgiveness for various misdeeds and criticism of the authorities, and reports about this are published, in particular, by the republican TV channel Grozny.
The report of the international crisis group "Chechnya: Internal Abroad", published in June 2015 on the "Caucasian Knot", noted that such apologies are the result of pressure and threats. How this practice is spreading to other regions of Russia can be found in the "Caucasian Knot" report "A Fashion for Apologies: From Chechnya to the Outskirts". nine0003
A video of a man dressed in a pink dress dancing at the entrance to Grozny at the monument with the inscription: "City of Military Glory" was published today on the Chechen Republic's Instagram page. The recording itself lasts only a few seconds. In the video, a man in a dress with a tight bodice and a translucent skirt circles for several seconds to the music at the entrance to Grozny.
"Maybe it's a photoshop or not, I don't know, but he should be punished for such behavior! And it was done by a group of people!" - said the author of the message. nine0003
This post got 99 likes and 235 comments in the public, which is subscribed to by 95.
4 thousand people, by 21.20 Moscow time. ( Addition of the "Caucasian Knot" - as of 22.00 Moscow time, the publication in the Instagram *-public state of emergency / Chechnya is unavailable ).
Some of the authors of the comments in Russian suggested that the dancer in the dress would have to apologize for this entry. "Waiting for the apology video," wrote _khan_009_ . "Tomorrow with bowed head will apologize!" - agreed amlj1135 . "Why shoot a video like this. Once again to apologize to the camera later," user pupskom said. "Expect an apology from this beautiful guy," added 95_aidan . “He acted worse than the worst. So, to allow himself to treat the land of our Fathers with disdain, this has never happened before in our history,” ruslan._umarov was indignant.
A number of commentators considered such videos to be the result of the development of tourism in the republic.
"Earlier, they were even afraid to think about it. Our kindness and hospitality, apparently, is a manifestation of weakness for them. I really hope that a video with apologies will appear soon, and tourists will be informed how to behave with us. A self-respecting person must know how to behave in certain countries, in cities, and even in districts," wrote just_tssb . "That's what tourism brings," supported adelaida_96 . "Tourists can do anything," commented ibragim_malysagov_ .
Let us remind you that the Ministry of Tourism of Chechnya regularly reminds tourists of the rules of conduct and dress codes in the republic. So, in 2019, the department issued a memo, which indicated how to dress when arriving in the republic, and also regulated communication with local women and smoking. Women were advised to avoid provocative clothing and dress as modestly as possible, while men were ordered to forego shorts and sleeveless T-shirts.
At that time, tour operators were skeptical about the idea of a dress code for guests of Chechnya, but Instagram* users considered the agency’s advice justified. The ministry's memo should also be distributed by travel agencies, they suggested. nine0003
In July, the Ministry of Tourism of Chechnya again published on its Instagram page* the rules of conduct for tourists in the republic. "It is not customary to wear revealing and provocative clothes here. Chechen girls do not wear trousers. Therefore, female representatives are advised to wear skirts no higher than the knee, and it is better to wear a tunic over tight-fitting jeans. T-shirts, transparent blouses, and deep necklines are also excluded," the entry says. dated 8 July. Some users of the Instagram * public agreed that tourists in Chechnya should observe the customs in force in the republic, including wearing modest clothes. Tourists can dress as they please, and besides, locals themselves do not always follow these rules, other commentators objected.

ChGTRK Grozny reported on August 14 that 120,000 tourists visited Chechnya in the first six months of this year, which is 60% more than in the same period of 2021.
The "Caucasian Knot" also wrote that in November 2019, a video appeared on Chechen social networks with an apology from a blogger from England, Benjamin, who visited Chechnya. He made a public apology for the phrase "Chechen chick". The expression did not refer to a specific girl, but some social media users demanded that the foreigner be punished. Caucasian scholars interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot" noted that Chechnya is not particularly popular among foreign tourists, and the story of a popular blogger's public apology will alienate those few travelers who were planning a trip to the republic. nine0003

The video of the apology begins with footage of a dance that has previously outraged social media users.
“I want to apologize for that video. We did it without thinking, without controlling ourselves. I want to apologize to the entire Muslim people that we did it out of stupidity,” says a young man who danced in a dress in the video. nine0003
The second young man in the video is standing with his head bowed low so that his face is almost invisible. "I confirm his (the first who apologized. - Note of the "Caucasian Knot" ) words, it was a mistake - this is a video. This will not happen again," he says. "Look at the camera," interrupts his voice-over. "This will never happen again, and I do not advise you to do it, in general. I apologize to all the Muslim people and to religion," the young man adds.
A third young man made similar apologies. "I apologize to all Muslims, to the religion of Islam. I made this most stupid mistake and was punished for it," he said. What kind of punishment and from whom he received, the young man does not specify, while under his right eye you can see a spot that looks like a bruise.

Highlander traditions do not accept dressing a man in women's clothes, even if the purpose of such dressing is to escape, steal, draw or some other trick, pointed out the Caucasian expert Alexei Malashenko, . “In principle, it is unacceptable for a highlander to wear a women's outfit. There is no such thing in legends and folklore,” Malashenko told the "Caucasian Knot". Participants and spectators of the event received threats, journalist Svetlana Anokhina said. nine0003 The practice of public apologies, adopted in Chechnya at the suggestion of Ramzan Kadyrov, has spread to other regions of Russia, reaching even Moscow.
