Last Sunday, singer #JustinTimberlake headlined the #SuperBowl halftime show. Having just released his fifth studio album #ManOfTheWoods just two days prior, the performance unfortunately did not help to boost sales.
According to #HitsDailyDouble, ‘Man Of The Woods’ only sold about 296K units–roughly 242K of which are reportedly pure sales. Thankfully, his album still came in at #1 earning him his fifth #1 album!
So, why the unexpected turnout? Well, it is speculated that the Ghost of Super Bowl’s Past had haunted JT’s campaign. Social media dredged up the “Nipplegate” incident involving himself and superstar #JanetJackson from back in 2004 and it seemingly had an effect on the way his fans perceived him.
This is all very unfortunate, because I actually really liked this album although I don’t believe it’s his best. What are your thoughts, Roommates?!
