Singer Justin Timberlake appeared yesterday in court in New York after he was arrested in a drunken state. But, according to TMZ, new details have emerged from this case.

The singer ignored the STOP sign at the traffic light and then the police chased his car. Afterwards, they stopped Justin and asked him to take the alcohol test, but the artist refused. It was Timberlake's friends, with whom he had dinner at the restaurant, who asked the authorities to release the singer, but no.

Police officers enforced the law by handcuffing the singer, who appeared in court yesterday. According to the media, he has been released on bail, but will appear in court again on July 26. Police sources told Page Six that the singer appeared to be intoxicated and smelled of alcohol.

"I found that he was drunk, his eyes were red and when he spoke to me, his breath smelled of alcohol. He failed all alcohol tests," said one of the police officers. However, Justin tried in every way to avoid the control, while he told the policemen that he had only drunk "one glass of Martini".

The charges brought against him relate to two violations. Initially, the singer did not stop at a STOP sign, and moreover was on the opposite side of the highway.

According to the same report, Justin Timberlake refused to take the alcohol test three times.

"No, I'm not going to take any tests," he allegedly told the officers.

The pop star has two concerts in Chicago this week and another at Madison Square Garden in New York next week.

We recall that during an interview on Oprah's Master Class podcast last year, Timberlake admitted that at one point in his life he had become addicted to alcohol as a way to cope with the pressures of fame and success.

Realizing he needed help, he made the brave decision, he said at the time, to seek treatment and end his destructive habits.

Justin Timberlake later said that it was his wife, actress Jessica Biel, who supported him during that difficult period.
