Jessica Biel Blasts Justin Timberlake’s Music At Home

December 31, 2008

newsbuttonBelow you will find a pretty funny story about Jessica’s feelings when she and Justin started dating. Trying to appear cool, and not like nerdy fan, she attempted to hide her interest in his craft.

Los Angeles – Jessica Biel was mortified when boyfriend Justin Timberlake caught her listening to his music.

The Easy Virtue actress usually takes careful measures to ensure the SexyBack singer doesn’t catch her listening to his albums, but was found out during a surprise phone call.

She revealed: “I have to really watch out because I sing Justin’s songs at home.

“When we first started hanging out I had to be really careful because he used to call me and I’d be blasting – and I mean blasting – his music while I was in the pool, swimming with my dogs.

“He’d call me and I’d have to fly out of the pool, drop the volume and be like, ‘Hey, what’s going on? I’m just at the pool, chilling out.’

“And he caught me once actually, we were on the phone and he goes, ‘Are you playing Justified?’ I was like, ‘No! I’m not!’ “

Lol, I love reading stuff like this, because celebrities can seem so ‘larger than life,’ but when it comes down to it, they’re just like you and me.

Heavy Glow Digs Justin Timberlake’s Talent

December 27, 2008

newsbuttonNewly formed rock band Heavy Glow recently got the opportunity to sit in on a recording session with Justin Timberlake and T.I. (Dead And Gone), and came out respecting him and his talents. Check out the below article:

Formed in 2008 by guitarist and vocalist Jared Mullins, Heavy Glow recorded an EP at Velvet Revolver’s L.A. studio in 2008, with San Diegan guitarist-producer Stevie Salas (Rod Stewart, Mick Jagger, George Clinton, Justin Timberlake, T.I.).

During the recording, Salas invited Jared to a Record Plant session for T.I.’s new album, with Justin Timberlake producing. “Timberlake and T.I. were both pretty chill. I didn’t talk to them too much, because I didn’t want to be THAT guy.”

“Justin had some great melodic ideas for the songs,” says Mullins. Very intuitive, and very impressive knowledge of appropriate chord changes and melodies. He came off as the kind of person who wants to push the boundaries…I remember him saying ‘Once in awhile, you get to be the lucky son of a bitch that gets to take chances,’ or something to that effect.”

Happy Holidays!

December 24, 2008

sitebuttonI would like to wish everyone a safe, healthy, fun Holiday this week! I hope you get a chance to spend it with the people you love, and if not, I hope you find a way to share it with them through other means. In celebration of the holiday season, I’ve created some Justin holiday icons (there’s something for everyone – Chanukkah and Kwanzaa) which I’ve added as its own separate section on the Downloads page [HERE].

Also, you know I had to do a throwback, haha. Check out a young JT and the entire NSYNC crew as they take on their Holiday joint Under My Tree during Disney’s Holiday Special in the 90’s. Even with hair shaped like a broccoli, Justin was fine!

Schaffer: We’re just excited any time he’s willing to come slum it with us, basically.

Samberg: Yeah, basically.

Taccone: I like to hang out with people whose talent dwarfs mine and makes me feel really insecure at all times. That’s why I like hanging out with him.

Samberg: But you know, it’s the kind of thing where that dude can do anything he wants and he’s really good at a lot of things, and he’s super funny and he likes hanging around with us and every time we hang out with him and do something it seems to work, so we kind of just take it anytime he’s around and in the mood.
