  "account": "Justin Timberlake took part in the Global Down Syndrome Foundation's 19th annual fashion show in Denver on Saturday, November 7. The singer was accompanied by his 11-year-old son Silas, 6-year-old Phineas, and 7-year-old niece Zaya, who has Down syndrome. Zaya, who serves as a Global Ambassador for the nonprofit, walked the runway with her uncle and cousin. Timberlake expressed his pride in his niece, stating, \"Every person with Down syndrome deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential, and that's why GLOBAL's work means so much to our family.\" He shared photos of the event on Instagram, captioning one with \"Proud uncle!\" The Timberlake family arrived at the event in stylish attire, with Justin in a black suit, Phineas in all black, and Silas in black pants, a black leather jacket, and a white shirt. Zaya wore a black-and-white polka dot dress and fringe boots. The foundation had hinted at Timberlake's appearance in a previous post, announcing that the singer would be joining his family for the runway show.",
