Justin Timberlake had a big night on Satuday, Oct. 17 when he was inducted into the Memphis Music Hall of Fame in Tennessee, stating, “This is the f–king coolest thing that has ever happened to me!”

Before his speech, the 34-year-old pop star was introduced by none other than his good friend Jimmy Fallon, in typical Fallon fashion, stating, “When they first asked me to help induct Justin into the Memphis Music Hall of Fame, three things came to mind: How much? Where am I staying? And most importantly, how do I get out of this. This is Justin Timberlake we’re talking about, and who better to induct him than me, Mrs. Justin Timberlake?”

Fallon continued with, “As his friend I could tell you that this is such a big honor for Justin and it couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy. He’s given us so much amazing music over the years. I’m talking ‘Cry Me a River,’ ‘SexyBack,’ ‘Suit & Tie,’ ‘Mirrors,’ ‘Dick in a Box!’ That’s right, he was the first Justin whose dick went viral. Sorry, Bieber.”

With the joking aside, Timberlake took to the stage, tearing up while giving his speech: “I wanna thank all the great artists in this hall. I’m truly honored to merely stand on the shoulder of all these legends I grew up listening to, and I grew up admiring, to say that I stand alongside them now.”

He then gave a sweet shout out to his wife of three years, Jessica Biel, calling her his “rock” and “beautiful, loving and incredibly understanding.” “Baby, I love you more than I could put into words and more than any song could ever write.”
