Israeli concert organizers and fans are gearing up for the arrival of one of pop music’s hottest acts, Justin Timberlake.
A news conference has been scheduled for 9:30 a.m. on Sunday, when concert producers will announce that Timberlake will perform a show in Israel for the first time ever.
The multimillion dollar recording artist recently dominated the music categories of the recently held People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles.
Timberlake, 32, who returned to the musical spotlight in 2013 with the two-part release of "The 20/20 Experience" after more than five years away to focus on his acting, picked up three awards including favorite album.
"I'd like to thank my parents for continuing to instill in me that no dream is too big. I'd like to thank my team that puts up with my ridiculous neuroses all the time - sorry, but not really, because look at this," the singer said on stage, referring to his award.
Timberlake also won favorite male artist and favorite R&B artist, but was beaten in the favorite pop artist category by Britney Spears, who won her first People's Choice award in her career spanning 15 years.
