A GIF History of Justin Timberlake Pelvic Thrusting

It is a testament to how beloved Justin Timberlake is that he can drop a new single for a movie called, “Trolls,” and no one would be mad about it. In fact, according to the singer’s new music video, the whole world is dropping everything to dance along to, “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” which debuted Tuesday. In it, “average” people risk both getting fired and their public reputation to gyrate to that famous falsetto. Timberlake hasn’t released new music since 2013, so it’s cause for celebration. He’s been busy being a charming husband and father, but dammit, Timberlake just can’t stop the feeling! The man’s got to dance! He has, after all, been a professional pelvic thruster since 1993 when he became a member of The Mickey Mouse Club at age twelve. Here, we bring all those sexy moves back.
