Justin Timberlake just added another accomplishment to his resumé.
The Berklee College of Music honored the “Can’t Stop the Feeling” singer over the weekend with a doctor of music degree at the university’s 2019 commencement ceremony.
“No Dream is too big!!! Keep chasing!!!” Timberlake, 38, wrote on Instagram. “Trust me… I’m a DOCTOR!! But, for real… THANK YOU to @berkleecollege for this incredible honor—I’m very humbled and grateful.”

Unlike the students at the ceremony, the 10-time Grammy winner celebrated by drinking a bottle of wine on his private plane.
In March, Berklee announced that this year’s honorees, which included Timberlake, Missy Elliott, and Broadway star Alex Lacamoire, were “being recognized for their achievements and influences in music, and for their enduring global impact.”

Students at the school paid tribute to the honorees by performing their music at a concert held at Boston University’s Agganis Arena on Friday.
Following the commencement ceremony Saturday, Elliott also shared a picture of her degree with the caption, “CREATE YOUR OWN LANE!!!! Sincerely Dr. MISSY ELLIOTT.”
