Whats been your favorite place youve visited so far and why? Or favorite moment on #JT2020Tour so far.

I think my favorite times on this tour so far have been in Abu Dhabi, Istanbul; Tel-Aviv, Morocco; and Lisbon, Portugal. They were all departures from The 20/20 Experience World Tour arena shows that we had been doing all over the US and Europe. The weather was awesome; the scenery was beautiful; and we had some much needed days off. It was a fun stretch.

Whats your favorite song to play?

I enjoy playing Sexy Back and Mike and I get a chance to get heavy, and we can hear our guitars bouncing off the back wall of the arena or stadium. Those songs also cap the show off, so the entire band is at a climax. Full balls.

What message would you give to an aspiring musician/dancer?

Just when you think you cant, push on. Things will happen when you least expect.

Absolutely. Rabid Villain satisfies the bluesy heavy metal cravings, and Lord T & Eloise quench the quirky hip hop thirst - all out of the great city of Memphis with good people I grew up with.

Yea, I want to give a shout-out to a past girlfriend who dumped me because she believed pursuing music as a career was a dead end path. Her last words to me were "Ha. Good luck with that." Thank you for the motivation. You know who you are!

Motto? "What is for you will not pass you by."

How did you first start getting into music/dancing?

My grandfather was a brilliant singer and sang to me as a child. I started writing poetry and singing at a very young age. Then I picked up the guitar and combined the two together. My principal in high school, Mrs. Hutton, was the first person to introduce me to the stage at school concerts and churches. I later moved to Indonesia to become a lead singer of a 10 piece band.

After that, I continued saving money from my retail job at Supr in Australia so that I could pursue my career in NYC. They say, "If you can make it in New York, you can make it anywhere," so I rose to the challenge. There I networked and met some incredible people in the music business. The journey has really only just begun and like my Mom always said, "Success is a journey, not a destination."

First concert?

Janet Jackson - Velvet Rope

Whos your biggest influence? Idol?

Michael Jackson, Paul Simon, and Sheryl Crow

Nickname?

"Zenyarita" // Funnily enough, that nickname started before I even got this tour.

On tour, you cant survive without:

1. My Nikon HD Camera (Photography is my hobby)

2. My Erno Lazlo Black Soap

3. My Studio Fix Foundation Fluid by MAC for stage

Whats been your favorite place youve visited so far and why?

Germany and Poland because of how much love we get out there. P.S. Im half Polish.

Whats your favorite song to dance/play?

by SWV

What message would you give to an aspiring musician/dancer?

Dont ever be bullied into believing you cant.

Do you have your own personal project?

My single "Freedom In A Kiss" will be available this November with my EP soon following on iTunes.

Anyone you want to give a shout-out to?

My man and my family. Cause when everything is said and done, they dont care about what I do, they love me for who I am.

For the last leg of The 20/20 Experience World Tour, were back with some stylish new gear from Neil Barrett - a British-born, Italian-based fashion designer with a clean, crisp aesthetic. Adhering to a black and white color palette to match The 20/20 Experience vision, the dancers are now rocking white crop tops and the band is donning a modern take on the suit-and-tie -- t-shirt style!

We featured a full interview with Barrett about his inspiration for the garments on this tour when the gear made its debut this summer. You can read all about it here.

We love how Barrett blends his futuristic vision with impecable, classic tailoring. Be sure to peep the clothes during this leg of The 20/20 Experience World Tour!

Justin has previously worn Neil Barrett in the music videos Take Back The Night," s 4 Minutes," the duet with Michael Jackson Love Never Felt So Good," the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards, and the Legends of Summer 2013 Tour.
