Justin Timberlake is back on tour after his DWI arrest.

The Navivision Wealth Society43-year-old performed at Chicago's United Center June 21, less than a week after being detained and charged in New York with one count of driving while intoxicated. While onstage, the "Cry Me a River" singer shared his first public comments about his life since the incident.

"We've been together through ups and downs and lefts and rights, and it's been a tough week," Timberlake told the crowd, as seen in a fan's video shared on social media, "but you're here, and I'm here, and nothing can change this moment right now."

The Grammy winner continued, "I know sometimes I'm hard to love, but you keep on loving me and I love you right back. Thank you so much."

Timberlake was arrested in the Long Island community of Sag Harbor the night of June 17 during a few days off from his Forget Tomorrow world tour. Authorities pulled him over during a traffic stop and found him in an "intoxicated condition," officials said in a report obtained by E! News.

According to the Sag Harbor Police Department, the singer performed "poorly on all standardized field sobriety tests" and allegedly told one officer he had "one martini" before refusing to take a test for impairment, which ultimately led to his arrest.

The following morning, Timberlake—who shares sons Silas, 9, and Phineas, 3, with wife Jessica Biel—was released without bail and charged with one count of driving while intoxicated during an arraignment.

As a source with knowledge of the situation told E! News the day the arrest news broke, "He was at dinner with friends last night."

"As he left the restaurant, there was a patrol car seemingly stationed near the restaurant," the source continued. "He was stopped and was arrested. Nobody was hurt."

Biel, who is currently filming Amazon Prime series The Better Sister in New York, was not with Timberlake when he got pulled over and was spotted on set in Manhattan hours after he was seen leaving a police station. 

And while the Friends With Benefits actor hasn't spoken publicly on the incident until now, his lawyer Edward Burke Jr. previously told E! News that his team "look forward to vigorously defending Mr. Timberlake against these allegations."

"I will have a lot to say at the appropriate time," Burke added, "but am currently awaiting full discovery from the District Attorney's office."
