Justin Timberlake 2 Early life [2] Timberlake was born in Memphis, Tennessee, the son of Lynn Harless (née Bomar) and Randall Timberlake. [5] Timberlake has English and distant American Indian ancestry. His paternal grandfather, Charles L. Timberlake, was a Baptist minister, and Timberlake was raised Baptist, though now considers himself more "spiritual than [6] religious". Timberlake's parents divorced in 1985, and both have remarried. His mother, who now runs an entertainment company called Just-in Time Entertainment, remarried to Paul Harless, a banker, when her son was five. His father, a choir director at a Baptist church, has two children, Jonathan (born c. 1993) and Steven Robert (born August 14, 1998), from his second marriage to Lisa Perry. Timberlake's half-sister, Laura Katherine, died shortly after birth on [7] May 14, 1997, and is mentioned in his acknowledgments in the album*NSYNCas "My Angel in Heaven." Timberlake grew up in Shelby Forest, a small community between Memphis and Millington. His first attempts at a [8] singing career were country music songs onStar Searchas "Justin Randall." In 1993, Timberlake joined the cast ofThe Mickey Mouse Club. His castmates included future girlfriend and pop [9] superstar Britney Spears, future tourmate Christina Aguilera, and future bandmate JC Chasez. The show ended in 1994, but late in 1995 Timberlake recruited Chasez to be in an all-male singing group organized by boy band [10] manager Lou Pearlman that eventually became 'N Sync. Music career 1995–2002: 'N Sync [11] Timberlake and JC Chasez were the two lead singers of the popular 1990s boy band 'N Sync. The group formed in 1995, started its career 1996 in Europe, and hit it big in the United States in 1998 with the US release of its debut [12] album*NSYNC, which sold 11 million copies. The album included a number of hit singles such as "Tearin' Up My Heart". For the next two years, encouraged by similar developments with the Backstreet Boys, 'N Sync engaged [13] in a lengthy legal battle with manager Lou Pearlman. Eventually the band signed with Jive Records. 'N Sync released a long-awaited album,No Strings Attached, in March 2000, which became the fastest-selling album of all [14] time with 2.4 million copies sold in its first week and produced a #1 single, "It's Gonna Be Me". The release was followed by the band's third album,Celebrity, which held the title of the second-fastest selling album of all time. In 2002, after the completion of aCelebrity Tourand the release of "Girlfriend", the third single fromCelebrity, the group decided to take time off, at which point Timberlake began work on his first solo album and the group went [15] into a hiatus. In its lifetime, 'N Sync was internationally famous and performed at the Academy Awards, the [16] [17] [18] Olympics, and the Super Bowl, as well as selling more than 50 million copies worldwide, becoming the [19] third-best selling boy band in history. During late 1999, Timberlake made his acting debut in the Disney Channel movieModel Behavior, in which he played Jason Sharpe, a model who falls in love with a waitress after mistaking her for another model. It was released [20] on March 12, 2000. As a member of 'N Sync, Timberlake developed into a major celebrity in his own right in addition to achieving respect as a musician, since he was the writer or co-writer of all three singles fromCelebrity. The rise of his own stardom and the general decline in the popularity of boy bands led to the dissolution of 'N Sync. Band member Lance [21] Bass has stated that he believes the group is finished, and is openly critical of Timberlake's actions in his memoir Out of Sync. On the other hand, Chris Kirkpatrick remarked in August 2008 that the five remain friends, and he [22] [23] believed a reunion was possible: he repeated that opinion in October 2009. In September 2008, Bass also made [24] conciliatory comments.

Justin Timberlake 2002–04:Justifiedand Super Bowl In August 2002, after months of recordingJustified, his debut solo album, Timberlake performed at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards, where he premiered his first single, "Like I Love You", a sparse dance track produced by The [25] [26] Neptunes. The song reached number eleven on theBillboardFollowing the single, TimberlakeHot 100. [27] releasedJustifiedon November 5, 2002. The album sold fewer copies than previous 'N Sync efforts. It debuted at number two on theBillboard200 album chart, selling 439,000 copies in its first week of release. It eventually went [28] on to sell more than three million copies in the U.S. and more than seven million copies worldwide. The album also received critical acclaim, thanks to its heavy R&B influence provided by hip-hop producers The Neptunes and [29] Timbaland. It spun off hits throughout late 2002 and 2003, including the top ten singles "Cry Me a River" and [26] "Rock Your Body". Timberlake supported the album by co-headlining the Justified/Stripped Tour with Christina [30] Aguilera in the summer of 2003. At the end of the year, Timberlake recorded a song entitled "I'm Lovin' It". It was used by McDonald's as the theme to its "I'm Lovin' It" campaign. The deal with McDonald's earned Timberlake [31] an estimated $6 million. A tour entitled Justified and Lovin' It Live was included with the deal as well. Timberlake was featured on Nelly's song, "Work It", which was remixed and included on Nelly's 2003 remix [32] album. In February 2004, during the halftime show of the Super Bowl XXXVIII broadcast on the CBS television network, Timberlake performed with Janet Jackson before a television audience of more than 140 million viewers. At the end of the performance, as the song drew to a close, Timberlake tore off a part of Jackson's black leather costume in a "costume reveal" meant to accompany a portion of the song lyrics. According to CBS, "both Jackson and Timberlake [33] had confirmed they planned it 'independently and clandestinely' without informing anyone." Part of the costume [34] detached, and Jackson's breast was briefly exposed. Timberlake apologized for the incident, stating he was "sorry [35] that anyone was offended by the wardrobe malfunction during the halftime performance of the Super Bowl...." The phrase "wardrobe malfunction" has since been used by the media to refer to the incident and has entered pop [36] culture. As a result of the controversy, Timberlake and Jackson were threatened with exclusion from the 2004 [37] Grammy Awards unless they agreed to apologize on screen at the event. Timberlake attended and issued a scripted apology when accepting the first of two Grammy Awards he received that night (Best Pop Vocal Album for [38] JustifiedHe had also been nominated for Album ofand Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for "Cry Me a River"). the Year forJustified, Record of the Year for "Cry Me a River", and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for "Where Is the [39] Love?" with The Black Eyed Peas. In 2004 American Idol judge Simon Cowell described Timberlake in People Magazine as "just some white kid who's tried to act black over the last several years". 2004–06: Collaborations and acting After the Super Bowl controversy, Timberlake put his recording career on hold to act in several films, having starred [9] in a few feature films earlier in his music career. The first role he took during this time was as a journalist in the [40] thrillerEdison Force, which was filmed in 2004 and received a direct-to-video release on July 18, 2006. He also appeared in the filmsAlpha Dog,Black Snake Moan, Richard Kelly'sSouthland Tales, and voiced Prince Artie [41] Pendragon in the animated filmShrek the Third, released on May 18, 2007. He also appeared as a young Elton [42] John, in the video for John's song "This Train Don't Stop There Anymore". Timberlake was considered to play the role of Roger Davis in the film version of the rock musicalRent, but director Chris Columbus had insisted that [43] only the original Broadway members could convey the true meaning ofRent. He continued to record with other artists. After "Where Is the Love?", he again collaborated with the Black Eyed [44] Peas on the 2005 track "My Style" from their albumMonkey Businessrecording the 2005 single "Signs". When [45] with Snoop Dogg, Timberlake discovered a throat condition. Nodules were subsequently removed from his throat [46] in an operation that took place on May 5, 2005. He was advised not to sing or speak loudly for at least a few [47] [48] months. In the summer of 2005, Timberlake started his own record company, JayTee Records.

He also has his own brand of tequila called 901; the name comes in part from the area [75] code of his hometown of Memphis. In 2005, Timberlake launched the William Rast clothing line with childhood friend Juan ("Trace") Ayala. The 2007 [76] line contained cord jackets, cashmere sweaters, jeans and polo shirts. The pair reports inspiration from fellow Memphis native Elvis Presley: "Elvis is the perfect mixture of Justin and I," Ayala says. "You can go back and see pictures of him in cowboy boots and a cowboy hat and a nice button-down shirt, but then again you can see him in a tux and a collared shirt with rhinestones on it and slacks. We like to think 'If he was alive today, what would he be [77] wearing?'" Target has announced that a William Rast collection, including denim, outerwear and sportswear for [78] men and women, would launch in December and be available for a month. Timberlake provides celebrity endorsement for many commercial products, this aspect of his business being [79] managed by IMG Sports & Entertainment since April 2008. Major endorsements in 2009 included Sony [80] [81] [82] electronic products, Givenchy's men's fragrance "Play", Audi's "A1", and Callaway Golf [83] Company products. http://www.billboard.com/news/justin-timberlake-s-fashion-line-coming- 1004106744.story#/news/ justin-timberlake-s-fashion-line-coming-1004106744.story </ref> An avid amateur golfer, in 2007 Timberlake purchased the run-down Big Creek Golf Course in his home town of Millington, Tennessee, which he redeveloped as the eco-friendly Mirimichi Golf Course at a cost of some $US16 million. It was reopened on 25 July 2009 but closed again on 15 January 2010 for further improvements expected to [84] take six months. Charitable causes Timberlake has been active in several charitable pursuits, initially through 'N Sync's "Challenge for the Children" aimed at a range of charities, and since 2001 through his "Justin Timberlake Foundation," which initially funded [85] music education programs in schools, but now has a much broader agenda. In October 2005, the Grammy Association presented Timberlake with an award for his humanitarian efforts in Tennessee, alongside writer/director [86] Craig Brewer, also a Memphis native. In November 2007 he donated $A100,000 from takings from his Australian tour to Wildlife Warriors founded by the [87] late Steve Irwin.

With Timberlake's agreement to host the tournament, its name was changed to the Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. He played in the celebrity pro-am on the day before the competitive tournament and hosted a charity concert during the week of the [90] tournament. The activity was a success, and was repeated in 2009. A review of the value of celebrities to fundraising concluded that Timberlake's contribution to Shriners Hospitals for Children was the single most valuable [91] celebrity endorsement in the US during 2009, and worth over $US9 million.
