It’s one of the best/worst things that I have ever done. It was hard to say goodbye to that era, but I felt it changing. I felt music changing. And I felt myself changing.
‘I was infatuated with Britney’
0 CommentsTimberlake recalls how he was in love with Spears at first sight. After their breakup, Timberlake wrote the song Cry Me A River in attempt to discuss his frustrations about their breakup.

When we initially parted ways I felt like she had a couple of opportunities to just sort of stick up for me, and she didn’t. Which is fine. But at that time, you know, I fought back.

‘I dont talk to Justin’

We haven’t spoken. But I consider him a friend, and I’m very loyal, and friendship is very important to me. He has reached out to speak with me. Like I said, friendship is very important to me – and certain things you just don’t do to friends. And in my own time, I’ll give him a call.

4 Minutes
The artist releases her song, 4 Minutes, from her album, Hard Candy. Madonna co-writes the song with Timberlake, Hills and Timbaland.
I really enjoy writing with Justin. We had psychoanalytic sessions whenever we wrote songs first. We’d sit down and we’d start talking about situations. And then we’d start talking about issues or problems or relationships with people. That was the only way, because you know, writing together with somebody is very intimate. That was fun, because he’s open and he’s got talent. He’s a songwriter. I haven’t worked with a lot of songwriters where I’m instantly connected and start riffing and playing with the rhythm of the words. He’s as interested in the rhythm of the words as the meaning of the words.

GQ cover
Timberlake appears on the cover of the March 2009 issue of GQ magazine. He talks about his style icon.
Kate Moss. She looks good in anything. She would look good in one of your T-shirts, in her T-shirt, in a man’s suit, in a huge gown. She looks amazing naked. She even makes nude look stylish. That, to me, is a style icon. She could put a barrel on and it would be some sort of statement.
My Love, Sexy Back performance
Timberlake performs My Love and Sexy Back during the MTV Music Awards to promote Future Sex/Love Sounds.
Friends with Benefits
0 CommentsTimberlake plays Dylan in the movie Friends with Benefits alongside co-stars Mila Kunis and Woody Harrelson. After Jamie starts working at a new job, Dylan decides to go after her. He calls Jamie’s mother to set up an excuse to get Jamie to go to Grand Central Station. When the moment comes he tells her how he really feels. After sharing a kiss and a date they decide to have sex without a relationship. .
I keep getting the comment that Mila and I had a lot of chemistry, and we do, but I think you also have to get the rhythm right. They have to be an even match. There’s a way to do naughty. You can do crass if you’re witty at the same time.

W cover
Timberlake and Seyfried appear on the cover of the October 2011 issue of W magazine. She talks about sex scenes. Timberlake talks about the audition process.
In films, I didn’t crave the type of attention I had sort of stumbled into in my music career. And I do not audition well. I’m really not good at it. Early on, I did movies like Alpha Dog and Black Snake Moan because the directors didn’t ask me to audition.
The Talks interview
Timberlake gives an interview to The Talks. He discusses his quarter life crisis and Botox.
It is. From my understanding, they do it so that when they get older it doesn’t look like such a shift. It’s more so that in the future they can hide that they had plastic surgery. They’ll start doing Botox early so that their skin stays tight until they’re 35 and then they’re 40 and then you never question when their skin looks older and then all of a sudden it looks completely different. It’s so that they can hide it more.
