Is Justin Timberlake over?

Yes. Haven't heard the new song on radio yet, just old stuff. When your new single stinks, they play the old stuff.

He needs to beg Lorne for a recurring guest star gig. He's best at that.

Nobody will listen to his music in twenty years

He's the 21st century equivalent of Frank Sinatra Junior.

He's fug.

His new single has a very low star rating on iTunes. Usually, the fan girls give everything 5 stars.

It'll be the biggest selling album of 2018. And you haters can seethe while Justin keeps winning.

^ Hi Justin.

[Quote] And you haters can seethe while Justin keeps winning.

Charlie??

Hey Jussie! Heeeey gurl! 👋

Now that Lou Perlman's dead, everyone who got famous because of him needs to just go away. None of you are interesting or talented.

Just because you have one single that fails to make the top ten doesn't mean your career is over

Justin is out of step with the current "woke" climate. He's hated on Twitter, he's aging poorly, the new song is shit and the back-to-the-woods theme is ridiculous.

r4 He was the biggest pop star in the world for a while, self-made, was in one of the three main boy groups, movie star, etc., no comparison to that nepotist case hardly anyone knows, singing old songs and a very nationally limited phenomenon.

r14 Justin Timberlake was never a movie star. All the movies he starred in were huge flops.

His voice is subpar and so is his technique. None of his songs will stand the test of time. None of his movies, with the possible exception of [italic]The Social Network[/italic] in which he played another overprivileged white douchebag, will even qualify for the test of time. Seriously, he was in the fucking [italic]Love Guru[/italic], which was embarrassingly bad but wasn't even the worst Mike Myers movie.

And all the white boy bands were just copying Menudo and New Edition who weren't even all that to begin with.

[quote] Justin is out of step with the current "woke" climate.

That's because he's a blackface minstrel without the blackface. He's the Disney version of Eminem, who never would have gotten as far as he did if Biggie and Tupac hadn't been shot.

He’s tiny.

"Filthy" is only #12 on iTunes and debuted at #9 on Billboard. Not bad, but I'm sure he's not happy with that. Plus he's a white male who lifts from Black music, so he's far from over. The industry will bend over backward for him.

[quote]Plus he's a white male who lifts from Black music

Yeah, and what of it?

I loved that someone called him "born again white" on Twitter.

Figures that would happen as soon as Obama was out of office.

R18 he's 6'1" which is very tall by Hollywood standards.

Seems like all the ways people traditionally understand the recording and movie industries are dying...JT's caught in the same DOA undertow.

This whole "back to nature" look is even more calculated than that whole "suit and tie" schtick.

I did "back to nature" the best.

His new song debuted at #8 on Billboard's Hot 100, which is excellent. Pre-orders for his upcoming album are excellent. He's releasing another song Friday.

r27 = Chris Kirkpatrick

He needs to present hole on the casting couch to a few people.

He was always good on SNL.

He ain't bringing sexy back with his current mug, that's for damn sure.

It's like two different people.

He looks fine. No one stays in their 20s forever.

He missed the mark with the video. He needs to take off his shirt and fucking Dance his ass off to remind us that he’s still got it. I think Justin assumes that people will listen out of loyalty. But if you aren’t giving us something we can feel or actually see....then what’s the point? Justin hasn’t taken his shirt off since “Friends With Benefits” and at this stage in his career he should be one of the dominating forces in Pop. But Justin is sleeping on himself and his mind is most likely else where. With a song like “Filthy” the video should have been alot more “GQ” meets “Fifty Shades” and less “Steve Jobs @ an Apple conference” meets “I, Robot.”

Until he does right and apologizes to Janet Jackson, everything he does gonna fail.

No, but seriously......

Sorry. I've never been a JT fan and I am NOT Janbot or a big Janet fan, but he really treated her like shit and the fact that he's playing at the Super Bowl again is just gross.

He was so fuckin hot

He's a boring corporate "artist" who tows the party line in every sense of the term. Trying to ride the "#metoo" wave of feminist nonsense recently was typical of his shtick. He's utterly ordinary looking and he's so square that any self-respecting adolescent with a hint of the rebel to them is completely turned off by him. He represent the vacuity of the talent of his era. But he can move - that's indisputable.

Really confused by people's reaction to the Janet thing. It's like because she's a woman people think she shouldn't take responsibility for what she did.

She was the headliner at that Super Bowl. It was her gig. Justin was just a guest. She was 38 years old at the time and he was 23. She was in charge of what happened at that show.

She took a risk and wanted to shock and be seen as edgy but it blew back in her face.

Blaming Timberlake would be like blaming Nicki Minaj for some stunt that Madonna pulled off at her Super Bowl performance.

I buy his album if he shows his coinslot in the music video

taylor swifts new song is flopping as well Hell the biggest song in the world since october is from a 20 year old cuban former fifth harmy member!

R40, the last I read of her, her career was tanking..as in...nothing special. Who's number 1 on the billboard? Drake?

he looks 45.

R32 damn! NOW i understand why so many teen girls used to crush on him!

41. Camila cabello is number one on billboard for next week ed sheeran that ugly giger with a bad voice that is somehow popular will fall back to number 2.

Ed Sheeran makes me want to vomit.

He's part of the reason why that is, R24.

Camila and ed have been top 2 for over a month , Camila's song had been number two for over two months.

R45 agreed on top of being ugly as sin he's boring. Writes nice songs but his voice and image are terrible he is someone that should just write and not be heard or seen!

Camila seems to be on Fallon all the time.

[quote]His new song debuted at #8 on Billboard's Hot 100, which is excellent.

For someone from American Idol maybe. But I am sure he was counting on being 1. It used to happen.

Yep someone who is going to be performing the halftime show at the freaking superbowl in three weeks should be debuting better than that , the bitch is over!

#8 for a big star like Justin is embarrassing. It should've been #1. Of course he's getting older and the kids downloading music don't really care about him.

Kids don't buy music anymore it's all about streaming and Timberfake is nowhere near the top there either. It's ed, camila and dua lipa for pop, and a bunch of rap at the top.

If Nicki had ripped off Madonna's panties, people would have definitely been blaming her as well.

It was an accident. Watch her hands after her breasts pops out. But he ripped the top off. He was joking around with Entertainment tonight right after it happened at how outrageous it was. The second the controversy hit, he pulled a 180 and started distancing himself. A real artist would have stood by her and laughed it off. But he wanted his precious Grammys, so he played victim and was rewarded handsomely. Total douche move.

The panel on that bra was specially made. An accident it was not. Just a woman approaching 40 and trying to keep her sexy. And Madonna took the heat for her antics. She's a grown woman and wouldn't need anybody to stand beside her.

The only antics at that Superbowl was that rapper giving the finger. And Madonna (who had nothing to do with it) supported her. Again, that's what real artists do.

Justin's a fake poseur bitch.

Shut the fuck up R15 not all of them were.

R56, no, Madonna didn't support M.I.A. Why would she? Madonna was the headliner. It was HER show. M.I.A. was just a guest.

MTV:

Madonna Thinks M.I.A. Super Bowl Finger-Flip Was 'Out Of Place'

But these days you can get a #1 hit with as few as 20,000 sales and we well placed ads.

Songs don't sell like in the 70s, where you had songs like "Got To Be Real" and "Stick Up" and "Jesse" which each sold over a million copies and yet stalled out at #11.

See, M.I.A. didn't act like some whiny little bitch when she got criticized for HER stunt. She didn't whine that Madonna didn't stand with her. She took the hits like a grown ass woman and she moved the eff on.

R59 no ones buying music anymore ,kids don't ask their parents to buy them music anymore when they can just head over to youtube or stream on apps like spotify.

He's a middle-aged millionaire with a hare lip.

He has the same level of sex-appeal as —

Think Herb Ritts took the shot at r32. He made them all look amazing.

Totally agree, r35. Not a JJ fan either but what he did was terrible.

They both did it. R63, but he came out of it smelling like a rose while she didn't. A perfect example of white privilege in action. I'm JT's worst nightmare in that I do not give a damn about him one way or the other. He's really boring and it's too bad. I actually used to like some of his earlier work. If you want to go off on JT, you can always go to Lainey's gossip site and look at his history of bringing up Britney and their drama whenever he wants to cry a river about his current failures. I saw their relationship as a PR stunt, but Britney has indicated that losing her virginity to him was not consensual. That alone pissed me off and yes, he does mention her whenever things seem down for him. He has some talent, but his narcissism ruins it.

Janet didn't come out of the incident "smelling like a rose" because she severely miscalculated. At that time, a 38-year old woman was the equivalent of a 50-year old woman. Meaning her career was near death. This was pre-J Lo. Women weren't considered sexy after 40 save for rare exceptions like Tina Turner. Janet thought acting Madonna-ish might extend her career. She was wrong.

She embarrassed herself and made her fans feel embarrassed. She also let her fans believe that she wasn't capable of planning such a stunt when she realized she wouldn't have their support. She let her fans project their feelings of shame onto Justin. But it wasn't his problem or place to assuage their shame.

Justin will probably have Janet at the Super Bowl. Her fans want Justin to treat her like a powerless little girl so I believe Justin will oblige and give them what they want. And they still won't be happy.

Millennials don't know who Justin Timberlake is. They think it's their dad's idol, like how we think the Beatles or Elvis are our dad's.

[quote] Millennials don't know who Justin Timberlake is.

Then maybe there is hope for the future after all.

They also don't know who Janet Jackson is.

R65, you sure are stuck on stupid.

Justin’s penchant for being a little bitch aside (the SB 180, his embarrassing Punk’d episode, etc.), he was a complete ass for the way he treated Janet, an icon who he himself looked up to. He was seen right after the incident whooping it up backstage, and then days later repenting on tv talking about how disgusted he was. As for Janet’s career at the time, she was still at the top of her game. Her previous album had been another number 1 and gave her her biggest first week sales ever, she’d won awards for it including a Grammy and Billboard award, her singles were huge, she’d toured and had been honored as an MTV icon, etc. The NFL wouldn’t have gotten her to headline the halftime show if she wasn’t hot. Her mistake was asking Timberwuss to come out at the end. He apologized (somewhat) years later, but unless he performs at this year’s halftime show wearing a JANET, I’M SORRY t-shirt while performing a rendition of her hit song “Come Back to Me”, he will continue to look like the punk bitch that he truly is.

I do love when Twitter reads him for filth whenever he makes some grandstanding comment about women’s/minority issues.

Janet was already aging out when the SuperBowl tittie thing happened, it really wouldn't have made a difference anyway.

No, just don't accept your version of events, R69. Guess that's why you have resorted to name-calling.

Also, the Super Bowl is often hosted by musicians in the twilight of their careers. Are you saying that Timberlake's career is currently "hot"?

[quote]They also don't know who Janet Jackson is.

Excuse me?

R72 is one of Justina’s cuzzins.

R73, the oldest millennials just turned 35. Britney and Beyoncé are 36. Christina Aguilera is 37. Usher is 39.

Janet has never been on the radar of most millennials.

R74 is one of Janet's cuzzins.

She was on [italic]Good Times[/italic] and [italic]Diff'rent Strokes[/italic] before they were born. The first millennials were babies when "Rhythm Nation" came out.

Some of you need to get out more. Janet Jackson is a pop icon and is known by both young and old.

How did Ariana get this t-shirt?

One can buy shirts like that of celebrities from the 1950s. So what, R82?

Also, try looking up videos of schoolkids singing other artists, too. Posting a bunch of random YouTube videos isn't proving your point.

It's just a shirt.

Katy Perry. Millennial. Sampling Janet song “What Have You Done For Me Lately” on tour...

It's very common for singers to cover/sample old songs. So what?

Lady Gaga. Millennial. Considers Janet a legend.

The statement was made that millennials don’t know who Janet Jackson is, and some proof was made to the contrary. Why is this so difficult for some to comprehend?

You're talking about SINGERS. I'm talking about everyday Millennials. But you're missing the point on purpose. Don't worry. I'll take the time to explain who Janet is to the millennials I know to cheer you up.

Biebs loves him some Janet...

[quote]You're talking about SINGERS.

And singers can’t be millennials? You didn’t specify at first whether or not these pop culture knowledge bereft “millennials” you were referring to were singers or everyday people.

And don’t worry, sweetie. Plenty of millennials I know (and you, too 😉) are well aware of who Janet Jackson—the woman who helped to create the blueprint for many of their own favorite artists—is.

Janet's "Velvet Rope" album was popular with my millennial middle school class, FWIW.

Never liked him. He has a shrill voice, he's annoying, and he comes across as really, really stupid.

[69] Justin only pretend to be a fan of Janet. Around that time Janet was the biggest artist around that time. Therefore, the people who chose Justine to be the breakout star motion him into being fans of both Janet and Michael. Justine is a lover of country music, but a taker of Black and Pop music. This dude wrote songs for Reba McEntire

Already dropped 18 spots to 26 lol Bye bitch!!

Damn...the song is pretty whack though. Let's see if the other three songs give him a hit.

He ovah.

Who is his audience? I feel like his audience from back in the day grew out of him(like me) and the kids this day and age thinks he's too old and grandpa-y.

Kiddies loved his Trolls song but doubt they’re even aware of his current “comeback” - two new videos released so far

Disney will rue the day they made him a Mouseketeer.

I loved Louis Virtel’s comment on Twitter (paraphrasing): I have no choice but to call this album Broanne.

And someone else said, I have a feeling JTs going to tell us all about whiskey.

LMFAO

I don't get Louis Virtel's joke about "Broanne," r104. Can you explain, please?

Not r104 but I think it’s a lady Gaga reference

[quote]Already dropped 18 spots to 26 lol Bye bitch!!

No, it actually dropped 20 spots to 29 in its second week.

Bye, Bye, Bye!

Did he come out with two more videos last Friday and the Friday before last?

He means the Bro version of Joanne.

But I’m also wondering about the 2 other songs. It was supposed to be 4 released before the super bowl.

R109 yeah that's what I heard too..did they drop it because of the lack luster of the current single?

There’s been 3 new songs / vids so far, the first one was awesome, I need to check out the other 2

Hi Justin @ R111. Hope you're in the studio recording some new music to repackage your shitty new album with. All I hear on the radio is your old stuff.

why they choose this tired bitch to sing at superbowl????

slim pickens i guess..

I will never forgive him for “Can’t Stop the Feeling” which was the most cynical, blatant and thirsty play for Song of the Summer EVER. It was as if it was engineered in a lab to claim that title in 2016. God bless Drake for “One Dance” which cock blocked it in a big way. JT is so over confident in his talent. You can see it in his smug face whenever he is doing those dreadful “Bring it on down to Shitville” skits on SNL. He’s like that annoying shitty kid who stops an adult party to do a breakdance and then cloyingly waits for applause and adulation. Next.

His current vibe is a rich closet cased married to your sister. He invites you to their house in _______ (Stowe, Park City, Verbier) and he's fun and friendly but he's also a dick and a bit competitive on the slope, and at the restaurant, and dropping names, and also you get a feeling he wants to suck your dick and you do kind of want to lick his ass but then you remember that's your sisters job.

You have a rich imaginative life r115.

The Grammys just came and went. Not one sign of Timberlake. He was been replaced by Bruno Mars.

He'll probably do just fine for an almost 40 year old. But R117 is correct. Bruno Mars has taken his place.

JT's new album will outsell Bruno's by 2-to-1. And Justin's concert tour sold-out in minutes and will gross far more than Bruno's.

The new single was also #1 on iTunes.

JC Chasez was the one with all the hits in N'Sync. The suits decided JC was too gay to pimp out solo, so they focused on Justin. Started with that horrible Pop song, then had a couple of good dance songs and nothing real since. And I had to hear that horrible Suit & Tie at every noncool trying to be cool, corporate event. Also, I have never heard a celebrity talk about Justin in a good "friend"!kind of way.

I really like the song Justin did with Chris Stapleton. He should do more of this type of music.

He’s a big copycat. He used to want to be the second coming of MJ. With Suit & Tie, he co-opted Robin Thicke’s dapper persona to the letter, trading his usual bro/yo-boy wear for sleek, tailored suits and going so far as to straighten and slick down his naturally curly hair. Now he’s attempting to put out the male Lemonade and Joanne. And the nerve of this cat to not only do the SB again after leaving Janet out in the cold in 2004, but to film that latest clip with Chris Stapleton at the Bradbury Building in LA, which is where part of Janet’s Rhythm Nation mini-movie was filmed, and then hold an upcoming listening party for his album at Prince’s Paisley Park when he threw Prince shade in a song years ago...this dude needs a reality check. To be honest, I think his flopping singles are the begging of one.

*beginning of one.

[quote]JT's new album will outsell Bruno's by 2-to-1.

R122 God, that was boring.

Where’s number 3?

[quote]The new single was also #1 on iTunes.

That is off the power of Chris Stapleton, who is hot right now, not Timberlake.

The problem he is going to have is that those two singles (the first one that bombed and this new one) don't sound like they are from the same artist, much less CD.

What is he trying to sell? His usual, blackish dance music? Or country?

R121 is right. Beautiful, charismatic, golden-throated JC Chasez deserves the success Justin has enjoyed these past 15 years, and everyone including him knows it.

Timberlake was embarrassing to listen to back in 2006 when every clueless & tasteless generic-radio listener was squealing about him. He’s worse now.

[quote]JC Chasez was the one with all the hits in N'Sync.

This is like the hilarious myth that Flo was the Supreme who had all the talent.

No.

If JC had so much talent, why did his solo career go absolutely nowhere?

Timberlake is a manufactured talent, but he had more of it than the rest of the group. Can Lance Bass even hold a tune?

Wow he looks so old in that video but it fits his age. This song has a more mature sound to it which could get him the older, more mature audience since the youngins aren't into him.

JC’s solo disc is amazing, and better than anything I’ve ever heard from Justina.

^^^I blast ‘Schizophrenic’ even now, and I don’t have a single JT joint downloaded.

Justin is now behind trends

The problem is that he's getting too old for pop music. He has a decent voice, I think he should have gone the Michael Buble route and done the great american song book, or maybe some old school jazz/R&B stuff.

Whatever he's doing now is just embarrassing.

R128- You’re right about that song being all about Stapleton, but the song sounds like it’s all chorus, not much of a song there. I do however love Justin’s jeans and flannel look. I’m sure if the camera panned down, we would see he was wearing some kickin’ Cowboy boots or maybe work boots - he is a ‘Man of the Woods’ after all.

R136, Justin hasn't done pop music in over a decade, except for that song from Trolls. All of his music from this decade has been R&B. MOTW is R&B/Country.

JC was hot to look at but no charisma. That’s the “it factor,” Justin had tons of it and JC didn’t.

RCA under Lou Pearlman was setting Justin Timberlake up to be the solo artist from the beginning. As mentioned before, and even a Google research can show you JT is the only one to not talk about the sexual abuse claims Lou Pearlman had. The only one....that's rather telling. When Nysnc went to Jive Records, J.C was given more opportunities such as writing and producing songs for other artist from Boyz and Girlz, to Basement Jaxx, just to name a few. J.C was the one who even had a song where he featured as a solo artist which was with the girl group, Blaque.

However, things went down hill when JT announced he wanted to go solo in 2001. Since JT was the youngest and the fan favorite like that of Nick Carter, Jive wanted both young men to put out an album and who ever did the best, got the promotions, and collabs in the future. JT out shined N. Carter by a long shot with Justified. Cry Me A River was a hit along with Like I Love You, prior. As a result of J.T's success, J.C was pushed to the back burner, leaving him to pick up the scraps of a potential album. Of course then JT had the Super Bowl and we all know how that ended. J.C's show was kicked to the curve and Blow Me Over With Her Love was doing fair. When his solo CD finally came out, it was a bomb. But he had little to no promotion and help. J.T offered to help with some songs which can be heard on Yesterday but his next album never came out, and he was dropped by Jive and went on to do shows like American's Best Dance Crew, and not much since besides for a little indie movie.

JT was young and had charism; record companies usually want to invest in the young men who are the fan favorites of the group. Like N. Carter was for BSB, JT was for Nsync. And Jesse McCartnery was for Dream Street. J.T had a some what good record with Future Sex, Love Sounds, and 20/20 almost sold a million copies in one week.

But that was in 2013 and now it's 2018, and his fan base has grown and moved on. The first song Filthy was horrible but this song, although I don't like it, he's pandering to the mature, country audience that he now desires. Which is a smart business move since country music is more for those who are mature in age due to the mellow tone, and heart felt melodies. With an annual salary of 36 million, he can afford key players such as Timbaland, and Pharrell and this dude here. And if the rumors are true about him and black men, or him and his bisexuality, then I'm sure they too are happy campers.

"We are now approaching the 12th year of the national delusion that Justin Timberlake remains an essential pop star."

-- Today's New York Times.

Here's the NYTImes article.

I listend to one of the songs on iTunes. It was about buying a generator because the end of the world is coming. It was shockingly bad.

[quote] The problem is that he's getting too old for pop music. He has a decent voice, I think he should have gone the Michael Buble route and done the great american song book, or maybe some old school jazz/R&B stuff.

He doesn't have a voice that is distinctive enough to be interesting singing jazz or standards. His falsetto is abominable and the rest is just a whiny, breathless wheeze.

I hope Justin has Chris Stapleton as a guest at the Super Bowl.

I hope Chris Stapleton has Justin as the guest at the Super Bowl.

The teaser, tracklist, and even the title all sound like conceptual work product that you come up with while planning an album, that aren't supposed to be released to the public. This is just embarrassing.

He decided to become a grand lesbian. Er. thespian. Music audience moved on.

Seriously, no-one takes a male Twink pop star seriously for the length of a music career. Justin wasn't even all that bad. Not very authentic, though.

He should do more country collaborations. I think that is the music scene to watch now.

He should probably figure out how to fucking act and try to make a go of that.

On music forums I am reading, he and the album are being trashed.

He's going to have a huge audience this weekend.

Justin's video at R122 already has 15 million views. Judging from the comment section, people are loving it and want to see more of this from Justin.

15 million views isn't even much for a big pop star. I figured any of the three new MVs would've gotten at least 100m by now, but I guess we'll see after the Superbowl.

[quote]I hope Justin has Chris Stapleton as a guest at the Super Bowl.

Will he be ripping part of Chris’s top off?

Only if that is how they choreographed and practiced it.

I generally enjoy Timberlake's junk-pop, but Filthy isn't interesting at all. The rest of America apparently agrees because the song bombed.

Sadly the follow-up song is terrible too!

R153, people don't waste time going to Youtube channels they don't like...so no shit all his fans are going to like his work....they're his fans!

He’s a punk. Ever since he showed his true colors with Janet I’ve been so done with him.

But you're still showing up in his threads over 15 years later?

R144 his struggle-falsetto is the most entertaining thing about him.

Epitome of white male privilege. And he's ageing badly too.

He is pretty boring, well always has been...

Well he has had a remarkably successful career for someone so mediocre and moderately talented. I never bought his hype but have always admired his hustle.

Metacritic score of 61. Ouch.

critics or listeners, r165?

The more social media attacks successful white artists like Justin, Taylor and Ed, the more they sell. All of their songs and albums were trashed, and yet they managed to outsell everyone else by a mile.

Gee, new album already number one. We should all be so over.

Christ, he's not even 40 yet but how did he age so poorly?

And he's hosting the Super Bowl halftime show, R168. He's the only performer to appear 3x at the Super Bowl. I wish I could be a "failure" like him.

Not over yet apparently. I'm not a fan, particularly, but has-beens don't go to #1.

R169 drugs and alcohol

Musical performers like JT are so odd to me because I do not get the sense they even like music all that much. Like Madonna, performing music is their platform for media attention and a way to secure other lucrative entertainment outlets like movies and fashion.

[quote][bold]As Justin Timberlake's 'Man Of The Woods' Is Released, We Chart The Rise And Fall Of His Coolness[/bold]

[quote]Over the course of his career, Justin Timberlake has gone from being one fifth of America’s favourite boyband to the most sought-after man in pop to, well, a bit of a cringe-fest, really, via stints on pretty much everywhere else on the cool spectrum.

[quote]With the release of his fourth album, he’s stepping back into the spotlight at an interesting time, and while he’s previously been pretty much as untouchable as a popstar gets, we’re curious to see whether he’s still able to hold onto his credibility this time around.

[quote]Justin’s return to the scene has inspired us to look back over his illustrious career in entertainment, charting the peaks and troughs of his coolness...

[quote] has-beens don't go to #1.

Tell that to the assholes of DL who called Janet over, even after her critically-lauded last album debuted at #1.

Well is anyone else's album expected to come out this month? If no one else is coming out then of course he's going to be number one. If other albums are dropping in regards to hip hop or pop then there's a chance he'll lose that spot. But JT is smart; I doubt he'll release an album with big ball players as well.

That song Filthy comes on radio where I live and I always laugh at the lyrics about meat. So bad, once a pop star becomes a parody of themselves it's over.

R177, why does he call pussy meat? That I don't understand. For you bi guys out there, do you ever refer to pussy as meat? I read the lyrics and he's not talking about his dick.

Someone on Twitter is posting all the horrible reviews, next to pics of Britney laughing her ass off. It's pretty funny.

Meat is cock

OH CHRIST! WHO THE FUCK SUMMONED JANBOT!?!? SHOW YOUSELF!!!

Summoned? Janbot has been here creating threads ever since JT was announced for the SB!

JT has always been fugly, with his (Slavic?) nose.

Slavic? Where do you get that from?

Filthy's performance on Billboard: #9 - #23 - #33. Not good

It looks that way to me! But I now Googled, and see it's more of the unfortunate Windsor (e.g., William) type, as Justin is of English, Welsh, German, and Dutch heritage.

I just listened to the full album on Spotify and I liked it. Midnight Summer Jam, Higher Higher, Montana, Breeze Off the Pond and Living Off the Land are sublime. The production is insane. This is a great album to play at your lake house or on vacation.

MOTW is for sure better than Gaga's 'Dead Aunt' album.

^^Nice try, Jussie. Nothing on your shit album can touch JOANNE’s Diamond Heart, Dancing in Circles, Perfect Illusion, Hey Girl or Million Reasons.

Most slavs have much nicer noses

[quote]This is a great album to play at your lake house or on vacation.

So, in other words: It's something you will only want to listen to for one week. Two tops Got it.

That must be a whack ass vacation or lake house if you're stuck inside listening to JT as a way to "get away".

[quote]This is a great album to play at your lake house or listen to on your private Jet or your country home in Provence or in your Bentley convertible whilst you cruise the Via Veneto.

Justin is getting dragged on Twitter again for including a Prince hologram in his Super Bowl Show.

Apparently, Prince hated Timberlake. But why would Justin want to be upstaged in his own act?

The Prince hologram story is fake. Why do you want to drag Justin so badly?

[quote]The Prince hologram story is fake.

It is reported everywhere. I bet princess changed his mind when he got so much blowback.

It was never true, so nothing to change.

R197 It is ALL OVER Twitter, fangirl.

Filthy's .69 on iTunes. Even Mariah had the decency to go .99 for Loverboy.

Hits Daily Double says he's tracking about 300,000-350,000... so not really. Could've been worse in today's climate.

I was hoping less than 200k.

what really irks me about JT was that when Prince died, JT wrote some fake ass tribute on twitter even though JT was a dick to Prince when he was alive, and they had a famous feud.

he been over for 5 yrs

rather see n snyc than him

he fug

damn he look like old man

wtf he do? blow booze n cigs non stop???

Prince's family refused the idea of the hologram tribute. ( Prince couldn't stand him anyway.) But Justin's team clearly put out the story anyway to drum up interest. This comes after using Janet Jackson's name for weeks.

You would think someone who's had an almost fifteen year solo career and sold millions of copies would be able to bring in viewers on their own name. Gaga and Perry did.

Justin has stayed a superstar far longer than Prince did. Prince was pretty much a has-been when he died. He hadn't had a hit in decades.

Prince was the better artist, but Justin the bigger star.

They have to do a tribute to Prince. The SB is being held in his hometown and Prince gave a very memorable halftime SB performance.

I'm sure whatever it is the tribute has been pre-approved by Prince's people.

R201 what did Prince and JT feud about?

Slavs are generally a hell of a lot more attractive than JT. Much better bone structure, for a start. Considerably less likely to look like a human crossed with a ferret.

R207 apparently JT dissed them(JJ and Prince) on a never released song in 2006.

After JT put out SexyBack, Prince said sexy never left. Then JT did this diss on a song with Timbaland and Nelly Furtado "Give it To Me": "We missed you on the charts last week / Damn, that’s right you wasn’t there / Now if se-sexy never left, then why is everybody on my shi-i-it? / Don’t hate on me just because you didn’t come up with it"

Shortly after that, Prince won a Golden Globe for Best Original song for Happy Feet, Justin was presenting the award. Prince was not there so JT accepted on his behalf and mocked Prince's height. He's a dick.

Prince and Justin obviously wanted to fuck, since they're both closet-cases, so I chalk up their little catfight to nothing more than misdirected sexual tension.

Nah, Prince was known to be bisexual; he wasn't shy about that at all R210. He admitted in interviews he had flings with men and women but romantically preferred women.

[quote]Justin has stayed a superstar far longer than Prince did. Prince was pretty much a has-been when he died. He hadn't had a hit in decades. Prince was the better artist, but Justin the bigger star.

What the fuck kind of bullshit fuckery is this? So stupid. So blasphemous. Justin Fucking Timberlake is a bigger star than Prince? 😅😂😂😅😃 My god, you must be a damned millennial. It’s the only reason I can come up with to rationalize such a blatantly ignorant, heinous comment. Prince is a prolific legend who was making hits for himself and countless others and winning awards when Justin Timberwimp was nothing more than a tingle in his daddy’s nutsack. When you attain the kind of legendary status that Prince has, it’s no longer about being a “star”. He’d been there, done that and had decades worth of albums and hits to prove it. And he certainly didn’t have anything to prove when it came to his influential status in the industry, especially when it came to some curly headed punk from a manufactured boyband who happened to be the lucky one plucked from said band and paired with the producers du jour in order to give him a solo career.

In other words, Prince said it best...

I don't believe he should have gotten into the closet.

If Justin's (still) a superstar it's only because he was a semi-cute white boy who sucked all the right dick along the way, his entire career. Prince was a black songwriter, a musical genius but one that vocally opposed the people at the top ($$$) - a big NO NO - and was punished for it. It's no contest who's more talented or important in rock history, don't be fooled!

Prince had endless talent. JT has just always been a vain, thirsty little bitch who'd do anything for money and fame.

And yet Justin is at number 1 again, & performing for millions this evening

Playing it nonstop on my yacht. The girls love it, and JT too. He sure gets their pussies moist and ready!

Grow up, r216!

In what alleged interviews did Prince admit to having affairs with men? What interviews did Prince ever say, "I am bisexual"?

There are none, are there?

A few lyrics on his first two albums are NOT a declaration of bisexuality on Prince's part.

Instead of "bi erasure," now bis are appropriating Prince without he himself designating himself as bisexual.

As recent as two years before his death, Prince was anti-bi.

Prince is the only man who can wear heel and lace and still be sexy. Watch the rock and roll hall of fame tribute to George Harrison to see what a amazing guitarist he was. The older Timberlake gets, the more obvious the desperation to be relevant/cool/sexy shows. Prince never had to re-invent himself every couple of years to stay relevant. He might not of had hits, but he was always relevant.

Prince didn't need to rely on other artists to help push his Superbowl performance either.

Justin's used Janet and Prince to try and generate interest in his. Again, if you're that big and interesting a star, you don't need another artist to swamp your own performance. Madonna and Perry brought guest artists with them, but they were the headliners, and they made sure that you knew that.

Meanwhile, #Justice for Janet is trending on Twitter today. Justin's being overshadowed at his own Superbowl.

This song on his new album is one of the best songs released in recent memory. It's orgasmic.

R223 Sure, Jan.

Sexy for some. I never found him particularly sexy but there's no denying he was very sexual.

And Prince never reinvented himself? The guy even changed changed his name, twice.

He's always been over for me. Can't stand him.

Justin is doing a big concert in Minneapolis today. Funny thing is, they are going to try and play football during the concert. Strange.

I never found Prince to be sexy. I always thought he was ugly.

Justin is now ugly. That seemed to happen overnight.

Justin sucked a lot of dicks-that is true. He likes them black.

Cool. Does Justin have a blown out hole and make a good prolapsed rose?

I’ll let you know after I’m done fucking him tonight

Literally every big name could drop an album and be number one right now, but this bastard's songs are sinking fast on radio without radio he's over like Gaga.

It's not hard these days to get a #1, you really only need to sell 100,000. He is projected to sell 300,000 but will drop hard next week. His streaming numbers are low.

I'm ready for a Britney half time show. Fuck Jussy!

Yep without streaming and radio his songs are going to keep dropping on the charts!

The knives are out for him on Twitter, hoping his performance will bomb.

Cant stop the feeing should Be okay but his new songs suck ass

Terrible he can't sing live lol why is he still performing like he's in his twenties still.

I Would Die 4 U.

I'm embarrassed to say that Filthy song is growing on me. I know it's complete shit but I can't not listen to it if I hear it on the radio.

Lame half-time.

So it wasn't exactly a hologram but more of a projection?

He's ok I guess, he just knew the right ppl to work with when he was solo, JC was a much better singer then he was, the diference is that JT was probably smarter.. but with so many new talents he has already lost his position of "prince of pop", he sucks as an actor, we know he gets those jobs because he is beautiful and famous. I´ve heard he has assaulted an actress while filming ? I wonder when the stories on him will come up, it will definitely affect his carreer, he's probably spending money now, to keep those stories from the media.. Also, if the gay rumours are true, it should come out someday, I don't know why he hides so desperately, while he was in a boyband.. ok ? but now ? lance has already thrown a shade at him once, JT, JC and Lance are gay, right ?

I love that Twitter is totally dragging his ass over his halftime performance.

It is running 90/10 Con/Pro.

Twitter is brutal.

The meme is the young kid Justin took a selfie with Googling "What is Justin Timberlake?"

I disagree that he's ugly. He's got a split bulb on his nose, but most women find that sexy (it makes the nose look like a glans).

He still has his biggest fan Jimmy Fallon

Speaking of Fallon, JT is now opening The Tonight Show. Enough!

WTF on Fallon he is wearing a hunter orange sweatshirt. This Man of the Woods look needs to stop.

How has JT managed to grow so ugly? He was never anything special to look at, but now...

His nose is almost touching his top lip and his eyes got buggier.

Daily mail reporting that everyone underwhelmed by his performance at the super bowl

I think Justin is going to have to get a new team. This era is a mess.

Justin looks like somebody's dad now, and he is somebody's dad. The sexy is all dried up gurl

JT is a narcissistic a*hole who constantly has to be the centre of attention, even with his own wife. He shades others to make himself feel better, and bring him more attention (Britney, Janet, Prince). Meanwhile, he probably let Lou blow him.

I don't care enough to look up the sales or how well the first single is doing. I never got the appeal. He isn't handsome, he is arrogant and his voice is too high. Does he even play an instrument?

Just a product of the cookie cutter pop star machine that survived into adulthood. Still managing to hang on.

"If sexy never never left then why is everybody on my di-i-i-i-ick...?" Were not dude. You look like hell.

The New York Times today is brutal. Basically calls him a bland has-been "heritage act."

Yeah JT is for old people now...because the youth is awkward now.

Prince was the best part of the show

always thought he and all of the boy bands sucked

Does that selfie kid have FAS? He looks so odd.

To the idiot who says Prince was a has been, you could not be more wrong. Prince was the best at writing and performing music and he was very much loved by the people.

The people at the Super Bowl seemed to love Justin. I could barely hear his voice but he can dance like a motherfucker.

Justin is a good actor and believe it or not, so is Britney.

[quote]Justin is a good actor

Ur, no, he is not. That is why there was an article in the LA Times last time he had a movie out entitled "Why is Justin Timberlake Still in Movies?"

It may have played well live but the SuperBowl halftime show was pretty boring on 📺. I would have liked to see Justin parody the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction by jerking open his shirt at the end and exposing his nipple—maybe with a pastie covering it.

He doesn't have the star power to pull it off alone.

Yeah Justin's not a good actor. He plays himself in every movie. He's sucks good dick. Now Britney, she could act; I hate she's not in more movies.

[quote]I would have liked to see Justin parody the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction by jerking open his shirt at the end and exposing his nipple—maybe with a pastie covering it.

Gurl the only thing that would've made this performance noteworthy is if he presented hole

Highest-rated Super Bowl halftime show in history. Topped Beyonce, Gaga, Bruno and Madonna.

r269 you have no receipts

R269 is full of shit; it can easily be found online that Katy Perry follow by Lady Gaga had the highest viewers.

No, r246; Big Dawg Bill is/was sexy despite his nose.

It depends on how well his album and singles do after a couple weeks.

Super Bowl made his iTunes sales go up despite him being dog shit but that usually happens after a big performance like that.

It may end up selling like 350k first week and then drop out of the top 10 by week 3, who knows.

Instead of him being everywhere, why can't it be ricky martin? So hot and such a nice guy who has fans everywhere. I know heaps of women who find him hotter than JT.

So far, liking the new album a lot. I like the “Higher Higher” tune, it’s very catchy.

R275 Fans are so cute.

Now his estimated weekly sales are down to 250-275K, I guess it would have been better for him not to do the Superbowl.

Selfie kid looks like Ellen, lol.

Selfie kid is on the spectrum.

My favorite thing about Justin Timberlake at the Super Bowl is reports that when he finished, he left the field and said, "I killed it!" . . . only to pull up social media on his phone.

R280, that shits embarrassing. I'm sure he's really upset by the draaaaaaggggggg that he is getting everywhere! This is will more than likely go down in history as one of the worst Half Time Show performances. Just like Katy Perry went down for most viewed. Prince went down for over all awesome performance, and JT-worst show through out the years.

R282 Enough.

THAT was worth bumping a 4 month old thread?

Filthy totally copied this, even with the futuristic aspects of the video

I see from lonely R286 that the Thread Police works even on weekends.

Pop stars only have a limited amount of time to continue having #1 hits. They age, and they are seen by the young people who consume pop music that they are out of touch.

Someone 37 is going to have trouble appealing to high school students and college age kids who buy new music. That's not to say it's impossible, but it's going to be a lot harder than it was 15 years ago.

[quote]Someone 37 is going to have trouble appealing to high school students and college age kids who buy new music.

It doesn't help if your latest music is shit.

I think Beyonce might have one more album in her and then she's done being a Top 40 artist. She's held on longer than most.

R291 When was the last time Beyonce had a big Top 40 hit?

Formation would have been one, but Tidal gave it away to promote Tidal. Not the smartest move.

Other than than song, most of the songs on her last two CDs were shit.

[quote]Someone 37 is going to have trouble appealing to high school students and college age kids who buy new music. That's not to say it's impossible, but it's going to be a lot harder than it was 15 years ago.

It's mainly a female problem. Once a female singer hits 30, she's pretty much over. Top 40 radio programmers are mainly responsible for the blatant sexism. Rihanna should be able to get some hits with her next album, just because she's so huge, but it'll probably be her last chance. Gaga is praying that ASIB can revive her career.

Once females hit 30, they need to become album artists, like Beyonce and Streisand. That's where the money is anyway, along with touring and endorsement deals. Single sales have fallen off a cliff. If a single can debut with100k today, that's HUGE.

Albums aren't where the money is, especially since more and more of those sales are from streaming as the years go by.

It's 2021 and I feel like he needs to make a move now to savage what is left of his career. JT is a douche but he's miles more talented than Bieber, Styles and Mendes. JT was smart to do a single with SZA as she's the hottest R&B star right now. Usher and JT should do a single together because they're both of the same demographic and both want to make a comeback. We need high-energy R&B pop again.

SZA would never

Justin Timberlake looks better now than he ever did as a teen and young adult. I think having a kid brought out that glow. He lacks an identity as an artist and thats why his last album flopped and unlike Beyoncé he doesn't have a team of experts to study trends to guide him because he has a huge ego and thinks he knows better.

JT trying to act was the biggest error he ever made. As he cannot act and his choice of films weren't that great to warrant taking long breaks between albums. He was decent on SNL because he had comedic experience from the Mickey Mouse Club.

I doubt an NSYNC reunion tour will happen. They are all too old at this point to start now and everyone has moved on. JC and Lance made more money doing their business ventures than when in NSYNC.
