Justin Timberlake -cover boy for the April 2007 issue of Details

On the tabloids: “I despise what they do. They create soap operas out of people’s lives. [Cameron and I] had our thing, and it’s over. They edit that stuff like MTV edits reality shows. It’s a spin game, and I choose not to take part in it.”
On being considered the New King of Pop: “I tried so hard to be an R&B artist [with first solo album Justified] and it was the pop album of the year, and I was like, ‘F***. That’s the last thing I wanted but I was like, ‘So everyone considers me a pop artist? Well, **** it. I’m going to do whatever I want to do.”
On surviving the boy-band apocalypse and becoming a man: “I could give you a bunch of analogies about why I’m still around that would sound like hippie self-help ********. ‘I saw an opportunity and I took it?’ **** you. Sure, there’s a lot of luck involved. But on some level I have to believe in my ability. And I’m not apologizing to anyone. I worked ******* hard to get here.”

On being used by the Grammys for ratings: “I’m the nice guy who follows through on the things he commits to. But I don’t know if I’ll be going through that sort of thing again. I feel like the Grammys used me for ratings. And look at it-they were up 18 percent.”

wow, tell us how you really feel Justin.
LOL

My friend had brunch with him a few weeks ago (with a small group of friends). She said he just hates having his personal life exposed - it's made him become very paranoid. It sounded like he's just sick of the tabloid side of celberity-dom.

ETA: she also said he is very nice (despite his angry interviews!).

I cannot stand him and do not get his appeal at all!

Re: Justin Timberlake -cover boy for the April 2007 issue of Details

I don't get his appeal at all either. I have no opinion of him. He isn't particularly talented or good looking IMO. I have no idea why he is a "star"

Re: Justin Timberlake -cover boy for the April 2007 issue of Details

WOW - he sounds like an a$$.

"On surviving the boy-band apocalypse and becoming a man"

Really? I still think he's boy-ish no matter how hard he tries to be tough etc ... his speaking voice is very immature and childish - trying to sound all "ghetto"

I don't find him HOT or really attractive but I like him on SNL or Ellen!!

Re: Justin Timberlake -cover boy for the April 2007 issue of Details

He does sound annoyed, whatever, he is still H O T in my opinion.

Re: Justin Timberlake -cover boy for the April 2007 issue of Details

He still looks 14 to me.

Re: Justin Timberlake -cover boy for the April 2007 issue of Details

I love him
I think he's real and i bet
I'd be friends with him if he was just a regular person not megastar
