The video is dedicated to Timberlake’s grandparents, who were married for 63 years before his grandfather’s death in 2012.
Justin Timberlake gives fans the full “20/20 Experience” in the world premiere music video of “Mirrors'”off his latest album.
The video is dedicated to Timberlake’s grandparents William and Sadie. His grandfather passed away last year and the video tells the couple’s love story through several generations.
The 32-year-old singer hasn’t dug this deep in to his personal life through a music video since the”Cry Me River” ballad, which alluded to his breakup at the time with ex Britney Spears
The eight minute clip was directed by Floria Sigismond (director of the Dakota Fanning, Kristen Stewart film “Runways”) and shows what appears to be a grieving widow in the bedroom she shared with her husband over the years.
William and Sadie Bomar were married for 63 years and the health of Timberlake’s grandfather reportedly prevented him from attending JT’s wedding to Jessica Biel in October 2012.
In an ending scene Timberlake catches his grandparent’s wedding rings and breaks into an emotional dance sequence amongst mirrors.
“20/20 Experience” is Timberlake’s first album since 2006 and the “Suit & Tie” singer announced Monday that the second half will tentatively be released November 2013.
