Justin Timberlake Gives Props to the Person Who Started 'It's Gonna Be May' Meme

You know what happens on April 30th every year… the “It’s Gonna Be May” meme spreads everywhere.

This year, Justin Timberlake is giving props the person who has been credited for creating the meme nearly a decade ago!

The meme features a photo of Justin attending the Crossroads premiere with the words “It’s Gonna Be May” written on it. The meme is a play on the words from NSYNC‘s song “It’s Gonna Be Me.”

Justin shared a clip from the song on April 30 and then on May 1, he reshared the Twitter thread started by meme creator @astro_kianna.

“Now that itโ€™s ACTUALLY May, I have to give props where they are due. Look what you started @astro_kianna ๐Ÿ˜‚,” he tweeted. See below!

Last year, Justin posted the meme a month earlier for an interesting reason.
