Justin Timberlake gives shout-out to local teachers in crowd during concert at Fiserv Forum

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Last weekend, Justin Timberlake played a show at the Fiserv Forum, and he took some time to chat with the crowd.

One group of women in the front row caught his attention.

"You teach kindergarten? Oh my God, make some noise for the Real MVP's tonight," Justin said during the concert.

Those women are Kim, Kelsey, Taryn and Sara, educators at Park Lawn Elementary in Oconomowoc. CBS 58 caught up with them on Wednesday.

They said they made a last-minute decision to make a sign for the concert, and it was the best decision they could have made.

"Afterwards, we had a lot of teachers coming up to us saying 'we're teachers too, that was so awesome,'" said Sara Lockwood, 5-K paraprofessional.

"Beyond cool, a little surreal. I loved it a lot, I got to go to his NSYNC concert for my 12th birthday," said Kelsey Pearson, special education paraprofessional.

Taryn, a kindergarten teacher, told us her students don't really know who Justin Timberlake is, but she could tell them she was going to see "Branch" from the movie "Trolls," and they got excited for her.
