Justin Timberlake: Biography
His career started after a childhood stint on the American television talent show Star Search
when he became a cast member of the Mickey Mouse Club teen-age variety show.
Timberlake began dating fellow
Club member
Britney Spears after *NSYNC took off and Spears began her pop career. Both were wildly popular teen idols, and their relationship and breakup made headlines. Spears made more headlines when she disclosed the pair had been intimate; she had once publicly vowed she would "save herself" for marriage.
In 2002, Timberlake released his debut solo album, Justified, to critical acclaim and impressive sales. It reached #2 on the US Billboard chart, and both it and the single "Cry Me A River" won 2004 Grammy Awards.
He supported the album by touring with
Christina Aguilera on the
Stripped tour, which ran throughout 2003. Like Spears and Aguilera, Timberlake has traded the squeaky-clean image created by his handlers for a far-more raunchy persona, as typified by his staged groping of
Kylie Minogue's backside as they performed a duet later that year.
In January 2004, during the halftime show of Super Bowl XXXVIII, Timberlake performed with
Janet Jackson before an audience of over 100 million. In the course of the performance, he tore off a part of her costume, baring her right breast. CBS, the NFL, and MTV, which produced the halftime show, denied all responsibility under a hailstorm of controversy, calling the incident a "wardrobe malfunction". Jackson released a taped apology, using the "wardrobe malfunction" phrase. Timberlake issued a scripted apology of his own while accepting his first Grammy. The FCC announced an investigation.
Timberlake began dating
Cameron Diaz in 2004. He has also started work on his motion picture debut, the thriller Edison, due in 2005.

MoviesThe Love Guru
Starring:
Mike Myers, Jessica Alba, Justin Timberlake, Romany Malco,
Meagan...
Review: In this corner, Mike Myers, the sharp comic mind behind Austin Powers and countless SNL skits. Handicap: His edge has been blunted from lack of use over five years, except for voicing an ogre in the Shrek trilogy. Here, as guru Pitka, an American-born rival to Deepak Chopra in love therapy, he repeats lame jokes in a singsong accent until you want to scream. His formal greeting is "Mariska Hargitay." His mentor is guru Tugginmypudha (Sir Ben Kingsley). He helps Jessica Alba, the unlikely owner of the Toronto Maple Leafs, deal with libidinous goalie Jacques "Le Coq" grande (Justin Timberlake). Ninety minutes pass like an eternity. Verdict: Down for the count.
