Justin Timberlake Keeps His Promise, Writes Moving Letter About Attending Marine Corps Ball- With Video
Nov 14, 2011 14 Comments ›› Angelia
On Saturday, the 30-year-old singer-actor attended the Marine Corps Ball with Corporal Kelsey De Santis in Richmond, VA.
He wrote on his website that the event “turned out to be one of the most moving evenings I’ve ever had.”
As for De Santis? “She seemed to be so humble and honest… Very cool,” he wrote. “She also simultaneously seemed like she was nervous about the whole evening and if I was going to enjoy myself…I have to tell you, it’s not every day that I meet a 23 year old girl and she’s more worried about if I’m having fun or if I’m comfortable! It hit me all of a sudden that these were the type of people that look after us and our freedom… Humble, concerned for others before themselves… This was the type of person our Marine Corps was building. I was really blown away.”
A video montage of Pearl Harbor, World War II and the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks “almost brought [Timberlake] to tears.” He wrote that it was “a surreal moment to be in that room with so many of our great Marines who have such a different type of connection to those stories.”
How did Timberlake end up at the ball? In July, his Friends with Benefits costar Mila Kunis was first invited to the Nov. 18 Marine Corps Ball in Greenville, NC by Sergeant Scott Moore.
