Madonna to reunite Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears
Posted in Britney Spears, Concert, Justin Timberlake, Madonna on the July 17, 2008
Madonna wants to reunite Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake. The 49-year-old singer is reportedly trying to get the former lovers to join her on stage for her ‘Sticky and Sweet’ world tour.
A source said: “Madonna is always trying to raise the bar and Britney and Justin on the same stage would be perfect.”
Madonna is said to be hoping to convince Britney and Justin - who split in 2002 after four years together - to appear with her on the final US date of the tour in Miami, in November.
The source added: “They have both been asked but I think they are both a bit reluctant. Britney would find it all a bit emotional and Justin might not be interested. More likely is that they will both appear at different dates. But if anyone can make it happen it’s Madonna.”
Britney, 26, has already recorded a video segment to be screened on the tour. Filmed in a lift, it shows her in a white vest getting hot and sweaty as she kicks and punches the walls. Madonna has also asked Britney to appear live with her as a surprise guest at some dates on the tour.
Justin, 27, was heavily involved with the making of Madonna’s latest album ‘Hard Candy’, and Madonna has also asked him to duet with her during the tour.
Justin appears on her worldwide hit single ‘4 Minutes’ from the new album and has writing credits on five of its tracks.
Madonna’s ‘Sticky and Sweet’ world tour kicks off in Cardiff, Wales, on August 23, and takes in Europe, North America and Mexico.
Justin Timberlake Writes
Posted in Justin Timberlake, Singers, Song on the July 14, 2008
Justin Timberlake took some time to write. But instead of writing songs, he wrote an article for The Chicago Tribune entitled ‘Out Loud with Justin Timberlake’. In the article, he talks about knowing Ray Allen and how he wants to meet race car driver Danica Patrick. He also talked about how his hero growing up was Michael Jordan and not the likes of Stevie Wonder or Michael Jackson. He says he was pretty convinced that he was going to be a basketball player except he never grew tall enough to be one. He also mentioned how his favorite athlete is Tiger Woods. You can read the full article on the paper’s website.
Britney Glitters, Justin and Rihanna Golden at VMAs
Posted in Britney Spears, Celebs, Hip-Hop, Justin Timberlake, Las Vegas, MTV, MTV VMA, Music, Music Award, Music People, Performance, Photography, R&B, Rihanna, TV Show, Video on the September 10, 2007
Oh Britney. You have given us yet another performance where you lipsynch, and badly, while wearing as little as possible, to a song no one will remember in six months. This is nothing new, and sadly, it’s actually worse than ever. Maybe now is time to embrace the fact that talent is actually a necessity when attempting a singing career. Shocking though it may be, some actually enjoy singers who can, well, sing well. You might look into a career more fitting to your needs; should anyone need an unintelligent, burnt out, baby dropping train wreck, I am sure you will be the first person they call. This was actually the best thing you could have done; you have finally put an end to your career. Thank you MTV. This is even better than when you canceled the Tom Green show. Justin Timberlake shouted upon accepting the inaugural Moon Man trophy for Quadruple Threat of the Year, one of four new hyperbolically titled honors handed out in lieu of standards like Best R&B or Best Hip-Hop Video. Timberlake was also named the VMAs’ Male Artist of the Year.
Kid Rock Spins
Posted in Celebs, Concert, Justin Timberlake, Las Vegas, Music, Music People, Performance, Photography, Rock, Singers on the September 4, 2007
Las Vegas has never been more popping. First there was Britney then there was Justin Timberlake and Timbaland and then there was Kid Rock.
Kid Rock and about thirty of his cronies partied in Sin city over the weekend. A witness says that Kid Rock’s entourage of party people, which included Sugar Ray front man Mark McGrath, went into the Moon Nightclub and took over the main party table by the dance floor. When the liquor started pouring, Kid Rock took a turn on the tables for about an hour.
He seemed to be a happy camper and why wouldn’t he be? He had a kick ass sold-out Labor Day kickoff show at the Pearl Concert Theater before he started partying.
Justin’s Peace with Paps
Posted in Celebs, Justin Timberlake, Music, Music People, News, Pop Music on the August 15, 2007
Since 2004, Justin Timberlake has been known to be someone who is pretty ticked off with the paparazzi. But in an interview with the Australian Daily Telegraph, the SexyBack singer is trying to turn things around with a conciliatory approach toward the paparazzi that has hounded him for years.
“I feel like I’ve made my peace with a lot of that stuff now. I apologize for some of the things I’ve done in that process, people I’ve hurt. I don’t feel like I’m going out of my way to avoid that attention. If you want to take a picture of me, sure, I don’t feel like I’m going out of my way to avoid it, I just don’t want them to get in my personal space.”
Like that’s possible.
Justin Does Madonna
Posted in Celebs, Justin Timberlake, Madonna, Music, Pop Music on the June 24, 2007
It has been known that Justin Timberlake would be collaborating with Madonna for the pop icon’s forthcoming album. And for the first time, JT is talking about it, specifically on the direction of their sound.
According to JT, “Some of the dance stuff hasn’t the in-your-face energy of Hung Up but it’s got this mellow R’n’B thing on top of dance accompaniment which Timbaland is doing the beats for. It’s all still in demo phases and I don’t know if it’ll be an album but four or five songs will make really good records.”
It sounds like Madonna and her producers are looking to go back in time. It sounds like some of her early 90s work… a far cry from her latest release of dance tracks.
Justin’s Secret to a Love Connection
Posted in Celebs, Justin Timberlake, Music, Music People, Rumor on the June 19, 2007
After getting linked to some of the hottest ladies in Hollywood, Justin Timberlake willingly exposed his strategy for reeling in the women in an interview with The Mirror. ‘I defy a girl not to fall in love with me if I’m on a surfboard or snowboarding. It’s my secret weapon if a girl resists me.’ Gee, conceited much?
His little secret seems to work though, especially in the case of eight-time Foster’s ASP World Champion Kelly Slater who happens to be in close cahoots with Justin’s ex Cameron Diaz. Kelly also happens to be the most dominant surfer ever to set foot on the board of professional surfing, so there JT!
Justin not in love
Posted in Celebs, Justin Timberlake, Music, Music People, Pop Music, Rumor on the June 16, 2007
Justin Timberlake revealed that he is not in love with Jessica Biel.
The singer told that “The Illusionist” star is A “very dear friend” although she accompanied him on his UK tour. When asked who the lucky one with whom is he in love Justin answered: ”I haven’t met her yet.”
The singer told reporters that Jessica suggested joining him on his “Future Sex/Love Show Tour”. He says that he thinks that it was a bad move. He told Britain Daily Mirror newspaper: ”She truly insisted that she came with me on tour. I don’t know how to say no to a pretty face. But it wasn’t really a good idea. This time I’m putting the machine before everything else. Jessica met up with me in Manchester, but for Paris I told her categorically no. This tour is very important for me. I’m doing it really seriously so there’s no question of playing sweethearts.”
Jessica and Justin were romantically linked earlier this year just weeks after Justin broke up with his ex-girlfriend Cameron Diaz. After his split with Cameron the singer has had his fair share of female admirers and he said that he knew women fall for him.
He said: “I’m well proportioned and nothing offends me when I look in the mirror. I defy a girl not to fall for me if I’m on a surfboard or snowboarding. It’s my secret weapon if a girl resists me.”
Justin and Cameron Ham It Up
Posted in Celebs, Justin Timberlake, Movies, Music, Music People, Rumor on the June 10, 2007
Former lovers Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz looked completely taken with each other as they appeared for the ‘Shrek the Third’ premiere on a balcony at Berlin’s Palais am Festungsgraben. At least, when cameras were on them.
The twosome who parted ways in January and have found comfort in the arms of others (and I do stress others when it comes to Cameron) can’t be anymore fake. With too big of smiles and body language, it’s obvious that they’re only milking the picture for all it’s worth.
Cameron has picked fights against Justin and his flavour of the moment Jessica Biel before. I highly doubt this would be a different case.
Justin’s Own Label
Posted in Celebs, Justin Timberlake, Music, Music People, New LP on the May 29, 2007
Justin Timberlake is doing what every successful singer with some roots in hip hop is eventually going to do. He just launched his new label called “Tennman Records”. It will be a joint venture of course with Interscope. Justin will be the CEO of Tennman and the chairman in charge while distribution is to be handled in collaboration with Interscope.
What will be interesting to find out is what artists will be contracted. No official statement has been released concerning this but Timberlake did say:
“We are all excited about the talent we have to offer already on our roster and I cannot wait to introduce the world to my new discoveries.”
The only problem so far is that Justin can not lead by example yet as he still has to remain at Jive for his own recordings. Who knows? Maybe the label will be successful and we will see some No1 singer promoted by Timberland, battling out with him for an award as happened with 50 Cent and Eminem. It would be nice.

Victoria Knows Sexy
Posted in Beckhams, Celebs, Justin Timberlake, Movies, News, Victoria’s Secret on the April 21, 2007
Or so you would think. Victoria’s Secret just released a “Who is Sexy?” list, and a couple of these entries make me wonder what they were smoking that day. The list names Jessica Alba as the sexiest actress, and Justin Timberlake as the sexiest singer. Now, granted, the nominations were made by models, and we’re not exactly sure how intelligent these ladies are. Okay, now David Beckham I’ll accept as sexiest dad.
But, Jessica Alba? Are we talking about the same Dark Angel, Fantastic Four, Jessica “my idea of good acting is to woodenly freeze in my underwear” Alba? Sexy to me is not only a beautiful face or body but a charm and allure that draws one in and captivates you. The only captivating I can see Jessica doing is of little boys’ night visions. If Victoria’s Secret considers that to be the ultimate in sexy, then perhaps they need their collective heads examin
