Justin Timberlake takes a jab at iconic meme 'It's Gonna Be Me'
We will never forget how Justin Timberlake pronounced "Me" in the popular early 2000s song "It's Gonna Be Me" by *NSYNC.
On TikTok, the "Mirrors" hitmaker stitched a video of him answering "me" to the question, "What's a word you pronounced incorrectly one time, and it still hunts you to this day?"
In the comment section, netizens poked fun at his line on the song, with some saying that Justin pronouncing "me" as "may" made the *NSYNC song iconic even up to this day.
It has become a popular internet meme that resurfaces annually, specifically in anticipation of the month of May. It's gonna be May, get it?
As of writing, the video has amassed a whopping 22.4 million views in one day.
