Hungover Timberlake cancelled gigs

Pop superstar Justin Timberlake has confessed he cancelled two recent concerts because he was "hungover".

The 'Sexy Back' singer was due to perform gigs in Sacramento and San Jose, California earlier this month, but cancelled both at the 11th hour - sending the rumour mill into a spin.

Reports he had strained his voice after performing at the MTV Video Music Awards were replaced by claims he had partied too hard.

Now the 26-year-old has come clean.

He told his San Jose, California audience on Sunday: "Certain bloggers said I cancelled because I was hungover and they were right - I was."
