Justin Timberlake in New Jersey in September 2023Justin Timberlake has wiped his Instagram clean — and fans think it means new music is on the way.
On Monday, fans noticed that the "Cry Me a River" singer's posts had disappeared from his feed.
Meanwhile, his profile picture was cleared before being changed to a photo of himself looking into a rearview mirror.
"#justintimberlake watching social media with his imminent return with new music @jtimberlake," one fan wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter), with a clip of the pop star, 42, lowering his glasses and staring intensely into the camera.
Another fan wrote alongside a clip of him dancing, "Justin Timberlake is coming!"
"So @jtimberlake has deleted everything on social media. This means an announcement soon! It’s JT’s year! Let’s go," wrote another fan.
If the social media cleanse does indicate a new album, it would mark Timberlake's sixth release — and first since 2018's Man of the Woods.
