Justin Timberlake makes longtime fan’s dream come true, reveals gender of 7th child
Justin Timberlake managed to make one of his longtime fan’s dreams come true.
On Saturday, Jan. 25, the pop star took the stage at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.
In the crowd was Utah County native Kelly Snider, who has been a fan of Timberlake “since his NSYNC days,” KSL reports.
Prior to seeing Timberlake in concert, Snider concocted a plan to get the singer to help her announce the gender of her seventh child.
According to KSL, despite being a mom of six kids who range in ages between 18 months and 13 years, Snider has never learned the gender of her children while she was still pregnant.
So she created a sign that asked Timberlake to assist in the honors.
“I thought, ‘If it’s interesting enough, maybe he’ll talk to me,’” Snider told KSL. “Justin has been my favorite for the last 25 years or so. So, I made a poster, and he saw it, and he did it.”
After noticing the sign, Timberlake accepted the manilla envelope and revealed that Snider and her husband were due to have their third daughter.
But that wasn’t the only surprise, Snider revealed to KSL.
According to Snider, who is due in August, no one in their family knew she was pregnant, including her two sisters and her brother were also at the concert.
“They couldn’t believe we had Justin do it,” Snider said. “It was a double surprise!”
As for Snider’s six children, “they’re very excited” to have learned the news of the soon-to-be sister from one of their mom’s favorite artists.
And it’s a story she’s excited to share with her daughter one day.
“I’d like to take her. I hope so,” Snider said of hoping to one day share a love of Timberlake with her youngest child, maybe even at a concert.
“We’re very excited. It’s been fun for the kids, too.”
