Justin Timberlake attends Marine Corps ball as promised

Justin Timberlake promised Kelsey de Santis he’d be her date at the Marine Corps ball — and he proved to be a man of his word.
The sexy singer/actor was on the arm of the Marine corporal who asked him to be her date in a YouTube video in July.
Timberlake was snapped by a fellow partygoer looking dapper — and a little shellshocked — in formal wear at the Richmond, Va., event, seated at a table surrounded by Marines in uniform.
The wife of one of the Marines at the ball said Timberlake “posed for pictures and seemed like a normal guy,” according to WTVR.
De Santis, whose sassy YouTube invite was inspired by Timberlake’s encouragement of costar Mila Kunis to accept a Marine’s invite to a similar ball, talked tough before the event, telling reporters she planned to challenge Timberlake to a dance-off.
“My friends keep saying, ‘Dance-off!’ They know about my skills,” she told Access Hollywood.”
