Reported months ago, Justin Timberlake is hosting the ESPY Awards July 20th.
The show which honors the years best and funniest moments in sports will take place at L.A.’s Nokia Theatre.
“I’ll do my best to deliver a great show, as I do not want to be roughed up backstage by these athletes who are bigger, faster and stronger than me,” Timberlake joked.
Here are some of the commercials that have been airing, featuring Justin Timberlake, as he prepares for the big night.
Pop star Justin Timberlake has confessed he suffers from a mix of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and attention deficit disorder. The confession came during an interview with collider.com to promote his latest film, “The Love Guru.”
In the article, the interviewer asked Timberlake if he has “the OCD where you have to fix everything” as Timberlake apparently lined up all the tape recorders placed in front of him. Timberlake then responded:
“I have OCD mixed with ADD, you living with that.”
David Beckham, Jessica Alba, and Justin’s ex Cameron Diaz have also admitted to suffering OCD.
Rumor has it that Justin Timberlake is going to propose to girlfriend, Jessica Biel, any day now.
“ Justin is 27 and thinking about marriage and kids….There are the rumors about a baby being on the way.”
“For the first time in his life he is feeling settled and has definitely decided to pop the question to Jessica,” a tattle gushed in a new report from the British Daily Mail.
“He is so happy with her. They spent quite a bit of time apart recently when Justin was working with Madonna. That made him certain Jessica was the person he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.”
For the big day, Justin has already selected the West Indian island of Mustique as the ideal spot for the wedding. Since the island is owned by its resident’s, Justin and Jessica would be able to ban the paparazzi from crashing.
“….He feels his wedding is the one day that should remain private….To get all his close friends and family to Mustique will cost a fortune. But he can’t put a price on how he feels about Jessica.”
Justin Timberlake has signed on to produce a new reality show for MTV called The Phone.
Based on a Dutch series, MTV said their version is “reminiscent of films like ‘Bourne Identity‘ and ‘The Game.” The show’s premiss is about MTV hiding two cell phones at opposite ends of a major U.S. metropolis. The phones will ring at exactly the same time, and whoever picks up will be given five seconds to agree to the terms of the game and then be sent on a series of city-traversing missions guided by a mysterious voice and followed by a helicopter.
“We’re turning the reality competition format on its head and plunging the contestants into a real life ‘Bourne Identity’ - not just in the tone and creative, but also in terms of the visual style and pacing,” said Tony Disanto, executive Vice President of programming and series development for MTV said. “Each week will be an action packed mini-movie. When you watch, your heart will pound as hard as the contestants. This is popcorn TV!”
Madonna, who’s album Hard Candy dropped Tuesday, performed a six-song set at NYC’s Roseland Ballroom for free last night! The line I bet was ridiculous. People apparently waited 60 hours to see this music icon perform.
The performance was said to be something that would have better been suited for Madison Square Garden, with an expensive rotating five platinum stage with a four-piece band and no fat.
During her set Madonna told the audience at one point ,”All you people I saw sleeping in the street last night, this song is for you.” The crowd cheered at the first few notes of “4 Minutes,” which mimicked its video with a flashing countdown clock. After Madonna belted out the song’s first verse, Justin Timberlake emerged from a rotating pylon, wearing a white jacket and black scarf.
It looks like even Hollywood exes can put hard feelings aside. In light of her father’s sudden death, Cameron Diaz received some unanticipated support from two people you wouldn’t expect. Justin Timberlake and John Mayer both attended a memorial service for her late father Sunday held by her family.
Emilio Diaz, 58, died of pneumonia Tuesday morning. On Wednesday, Cameron, 35, thanked everyone for their condolences in a message that read: “His humor and spirit will always live on in our hearts.” And in keeping with that vivacious Diaz family spirit, guests arrived at the memorial service at Mahe in Seal Beach in non-traditional attire. “Most people started arriving at 1:30 and hardly no one wore black,” says a source.”Lots of people were wearing Hawaiian shirts. It looked more like a party.”
Timberlake and Mayer arrived separately and stayed until most people started leaving around 4 p.m., right after Cameron had spoken a few words to the group. I hope their presence made her feel a little better during this mournful time…feel better soon, Cameron!
Here is a rare video of Justin Timberklake performing in the “Universal Charm Pageant / 1992 West Tennessee State Finals.” I have never seen this footage of him before. He is so cute and quite the charmer. On this tape he sings Garth Brooks’ “Two Of A Kind, Workin’ On A Full House” and gets a perfect score (surprise).
Justin Timberlake has his own foundation, rightfully titled The Justin Timberlake Foundation, which focuses on trying to keep music programs alive. Which I think is a great idea cuz music is definitely food for the soul.
Recently, his foundation donated $100,000 dollars to the Memphis Music Foundation and $100,000 to the Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum in Memphis, Tennessee.
“Music education and keeping the legacy of Memphis Music alive has always been important to me,” Timberlake said in a statement. “That is why I will always continue to support my hometown the same way they have always supported me.”
The Memphis Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum will utilize the gift to further achieve its mission of “telling the story of Memphis music and perpetuating its legacy” and to advance music education for students throughout Shelby County.
“Like musicians around the globe, he has always recognized the musical magic of this city, and he has never stopped promoting it,” said Doyle. “He has never stopped giving back to the community, to the local music industry, and to young people. The museum is honored by his generosity, honored by his recognition of the museum’s message, and honored that he is from Memphis.”
