The sheen has worn off America’s onetime golden boy.

The latest kick to Justin Timberlake’s ego? When, as Page Six reported, the young cop who arrested him for DWI in Sag Harbor early Tuesday didn’t recognize his face or name.

“Justin said under his breath, ‘This is going to ruin the tour,’” a source told Page Six. “The cop replied, ‘What tour?’ Justin said, ‘The world tour.’”

Indeed, the 43-year-old singer is due to perform in Chicago on Friday and will be at Madison Square Garden next week, sources confirmed. But he may not have his old swagger — especially after his latest album, “Everything I Thought It Was,” dropped off the Billboard 200 after just four weeks.

Sources told The Post that the singer and actor’s career is not where he thought it would be at this point.

“The album didn’t do too well, and I don’t see Justin getting big acting roles right now,” said a well-placed Hollywood insider. “I just think Justin has a bad reputation in Hollywood as a bit of a jerk and a pain in the ass.”

“He’s got a bit of an ego,” said an industry insider.

The past few days, complete with Timberlake’s glass-eyed mug shot, are a clear indication that the former *NSYNC heartthrob has some very real mid-life crisis issues.

Not least of them is the fact that his wife, actress Jessica Biel is said to be “extremely upset” with her husband’s antics, according to US Weekly.

JT-bros... will we let them massacre our GOAT like this?

Edit:

only JT we acknowledge is

This is Janet's revenge

I’d never thought I’d see the day that I like Justin Bieber more than Timberlake

He made Futuresex/Lovesounds.

Dude needs to lock in and make a great album again and he'll be fine. He CAN do it, he just... doesn't.

Go through the article. Apparently he has drinking (and many other) problems.

Meaning, he’s good forever in my book. Turbo Timberlake’s status as a legend is solidified.

Can't believe they disrespect the man who made 20/20 like this.

In their defense, he’s most definitely a major douchebag, lol.

Dude is s*** without timbo

Smh JT

The JT hate is so weird

Lot of reasons to hate him tbh

they really going that hard on him over a dui?

I disagree!

True.

Nah. His first 3 albums are classics but he fell off and been exposed as a weirdo

It's a combination of a lot of things.
Britney, Janet, getting caught cheating on his wife, albums flopping, being a d*** to people in the industry, and drinking & d*** problems on top of it all.

How the hell did one album ruin him like this
