Justin Timberlake rips guy who calls him a ‘bandwagon’ Grizzlies fan
Justin Timberlake has been a minority owner with the Memphis Grizzlies for more than a year, so one would hope he rooted for the team before they got off to a scorching-hot 10-1 start this season.
After the Grizzlies blew out the Houston Rockets on Monday, a Twitter user had the nerve to question Timberlake’s fanhood. JT responded with a great burn.
Grizzlies.

“@JamesStendebach: "@jtimberlake: Grizzlies."
Bandwagon.”
Uh… I'm from Memphis and I'm an owner. Anyone else? #WigSnatch

Celebrities are typically some of the biggest bandwagon fans, but Timberlake isn’t one of them. You know why? Because he owns part of the team. Even if he didn’t follow the team closely before (and he did because he’s from Memphis), part of it now belongs to him. You can’t be a bandwagon fan of something that belongs to you.
