The Return of the ‘It’s Gonna Be May’ Meme with Justin Timberlake

Social media users are eagerly awaiting the return of the iconic ‘It’s gonna be May’ meme featuring Justin Timberlake as April transitions to May. Originating from NSYNC’s hit song ‘It’s Gonna Be Me,’ the meme trend started on Tumblr in 2012 and has since spread across various social media platforms. Timberlake himself joined the meme craze in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. In a recent interview, Timberlake revealed that the unique pronunciation of ‘me’ as ‘May’ was suggested by a producer due to the Swedish accents of the songwriters. With May approaching, users are already sharing the meme, highlighting the fun and creativity of online communities.
