Timberlake tells DeGeneres at the start of the interview, “You know I was driving on to the lot today and I was having a surreal moment because… I’m getting emotional a little bit.
“Because I was like, ‘This is it. This is the last time I’ll see you… here.’ I mean, I’m gonna see you, but here.”
He adds as the pair discuss where they first met, “I would do these shows after the shows, when I was on tour, and in L.A. we played House of Blues and I think you came to that show.
“It was like 1 a.m. Alcohol was consumed, and we were like, ‘We’re the best friends now!'” with DeGeneres revealing that Nas was also there.
