Justin Timberlake performed at the United Center in Chicago on Friday for his first tour stop since he was arrested on Long Island on Tuesday. During a break between songs he said it has been a “tough week.”

With an acoustic guitar strapped to him, he said into the microphone, “We’ve been together through ups and downs, lefts and rights. It’s been a tough week, but you’re here, and I’m here,” then bowing before his fans.
