Justin Timberlake will perform his new song, Better Days at Celebrating America along with Ant Clemons. The Cry Me a River star says “This past year brought a lot of frustration, grief, anger —and there were times when it was easy to feel powerless. This song was our way of doing what little we could to encourage everyone to stay hopeful… and keep working towards a better, more equal future.”

Justin also says “We have a long way to go to fix, undo, and rebuild this country… but I hope now, despite the past four years, we are on our way.”

He says he is “honored” to perform at Joe Biden’s Inauguration special —hosted by Tom Hanks.

John Legend calls the Inauguration “historic” and we concur. Historic for many reasons. First virtual inauguration and first woman Vice President are just some of the historic milestones worth celebrating today.
