On Sept. 13, Justin Timberlake attended court for driving while intoxicated. Timberlake was arrested on June 18 after running a stop light and getting pulled over. Police said they smelled of alcohol and had bloodshot eyes. Timberlake agreed to go to court, pleading guilty for a less serious offense.

Timberlake willing to confess to their mistake is a good example of how celebrities should handle these types of situations. Driving while intoxicated is a common occurrence, which is why it can lead to serious charges. If they were to injure anyone, it would’ve been a greater consequence.
