  • Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel: The Love Story That Defied All Odds!

    Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel: The Love Story That Defied All Odds!

    Justin Timberlake and Jesscia Biel’s real-life love story

    The photos in this article will melt you with Justin Timberlake’s love for his loving wife.

    Talented, famous and possessing a masculine handsomeness, Prince Justin Timberlake is the dream lover of countless girls around the world.

    Going back nearly nine years ago, after breaking up with Cameron Diaz in January 2007 after three years of dating, it didn’t take Justin long to find new joy.

    At the Golden Globe Awards party a few days later, he was seen happily chatting with the beautiful actress Jessica Biel.

    But at that time, the public still thought that this was just a fleeting love affair of the peach singer. There is no shortage of hot young girls around Justin. The choice to date Jessica Biel is a big question mark for fans, and people say, “It’s only been a few days”.

    Yet what happened after that to this day still surprises the public.

    Although they started dating in early 2007, the couple kept their relationship a secret from the public. Justin and Jessica first officially appeared together in public at the wedding of celebrity stylist Estee Stanley in Los Angeles in April 2008.

    It can be said that with Jessica, Justin always tries to keep absolute privacy for her. He once said that it was a way for the male singer to protect the person he loved.

    In the February 2010 issue of Vogue magazine, Jessica Biel refused to talk about her relationship with her boyfriend.

    “I don’t want to share about this. I don’t see the need to clarify anything. It’s the most precious thing I have and I don’t care what people say or think.”

    5 years of love, that love is not always pink. There were times when the two broke up for months. Justin Timberlake is in the newspaper again with quick love affairs with other beautiful young girls.

    However, Justin is still seen giving Jessica a respectful attitude, always in touch like two friends and complimenting her even though they are no longer together.

    After several breakups and reunions, the couple got married in Italy in October 2012. The wedding is a happy ending for Justin’s love for Jessica – a special woman of a “completely different” Justin Timberlake.

    In 2013, Justin Timberlake wrote the song “Mirror” for his newlywed wife. The song about the love of “silver head and dragon teeth” quickly became a hit that year.

    As a wish for Jessica, the lyrics have the sentence: “I am, I am the love of my life… Yesterday became history, and tomorrow is a mystery. But, as long as I have you in my eyes. Always look at me like that.”

    How much does it take to love someone to believe that this is the person we will be with forever.

    In October 2015, appearing at the event “Immortal Contributions to the Memphis Music Industry 2015”, Justin Timberlake made a speech about Jessica in front of a large audience.

    He even wiped his tears with his hands when talking about his wife, Jessica Biel. The male singer called his wife “a beautiful, lovely woman and has an incredible understanding of her husband”.

  • Justin Timberlake Shakes the Music World

    Justin Timberlake Shakes the Music World

    Justin Timberlake sold his entire music catalog for $100 million

    Justin Timberlake sold his entire song catalog in a deal that was said to be worth $100 million.


    According to The Guardian, Justin Timberlake is partnering with Hipgnosis Song Management, a $1 billion fund backed by private equity firm Blackstone. Hipgnosis Song Management offers investors the opportunity to earn royalties from the work of various artists such as Barry Manilow and Beyonce.

    The deal between the former NSYNC star and the agency gives them 100% control and ownership of Justin’s stake in the more than 200 songs he has co-written.

    “I am delighted to be working with Merck and Hipgnosis – he values artists and their creative work and has always been a strong advocate for musicians…” – Justin shared in a statement – “I look forward to seeing this next chapter”

    Founder and CEO of Hipgnosis, Merck Mercuriadis said: “Justin Timberlake is not only one of the most influential artists of the last 20 years, but he is also one of the greatest musicians of all time.”

    “His popular songs include “Cry Me a River”, “Rock Your Body”, “SexyBack”, “My Love”, “What Goes Around… “Comes Around”, “Suit & Tie”, “Mirrors” and “Can’t Stop the Feeling” are among the most iconic of the period.”

    According to Mercuriadis, the deal took more than a year to close and is the third completed by Hipgnosis Song Capital in 2022. This year, the company also attracted the late singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen’s stake in the catalog and country star Kenny Chesney’s 80% royalties.

    Timberlake’s music collection spans more than 20 years, and his solo career includes 5 studio albums and 40 singles. Justin was first known as a member of NSYNC, in 1995.

  • Britney Spears’ fans unanimously “block” Justin Timberlake on the music charts

    Fans of Britney Spears certainly cannot forget the bitterness that Justin Timberlake caused to the singer during the time the two were in love.


    Justin Timberlake recently released a new song called Selfish, which promises to become a hit in early 2024. However, contrary to expectations, Selfish could not lead the iTunes charts because it was “blocked” by Britney Spears’ song of the same name which was released in 2011.

    This is a unanimous action by Britney Spears fans to “revenge” or “tease” Justin Timberlake for the bitterness he caused to the pop princess during the time the two were in love. Not stopping there, Britney’s fans continue to revive songs from the album Femme Fatale (released in 2011) on this chart, showing their loyalty and support for Britney Spears.

    Previously, Justin Timberlake angered the audience when Britney publicized the truth about the relationship between her and the male singer in her memoir The Woman In Me. In the book, the singer born in 1981 revealed that he had to have an abortion because Justin did not want to be a father.

    The fact is that Britney Spears fans have long had a grudge against the singer since he released his hit Cry Me a River in 2002. In this MV, Justin Timberlake implies that he was cheated on by the female pop star and this is the reason for the breakup. Even the female character in the MV has the exact same physique as Britney Spears, from her hair to her outfit, which makes the public believe that the pop princess has betrayed Justin Timberlake.

    According to a source from the Daily Mail, the owner of the hit Sexy Back is not satisfied and has no intention of contacting his ex again after the memoir is released. He also once expressed concern about the secrets related to his past love affair with Britney being exposed to the public again.

    The worst day of Britney Spears’ life: In the same place, at the same time watching her ex Justin Timberlake having his best moment!

    It can be said that 2007 was the worst and darkest time in Britney Spears’ career. Back in 2004, after ending the “era” of In The Zone, marking the pinnacle of Britney Spears’ career with the first prestigious Grammy Award for the song “Toxic” with a nomination for “Best Dance Recording”, it was difficult for any artist of her age to surpass Britney.

    But indeed, human nature is not equal to nature. After experiencing a broken marriage with Kevin Federline, things started to go badly. First of all, the persistent divorce, which cost a lot of money, led to Britney having to fight for custody of her children, which led to a series of extremely serious psychological disorders.

    Every day the press fills the news with the worst images of Britney. From the image of shaving her head with her own hands, cutting her hair with a dull smile. Britney cried like a psychopath, struggling on the sidewalks of Hollywood in front of the kite gaze of opportunists, her mental state completely out of control. Britney hugged her two crying children unconsciously, sitting sloppy in a fast food restaurant. Britney attacked others with an umbrella with an aggressive expression…

    The image of Britney Spears shaving her own hair became a “classic” image during the singer’s downturn in 2007.

    Even one thing that fans have always feared: Britney will commit suicide, with such a constant context and pressure. It was one of the most horrific and cult periods of mental depression in Hollywood, in those days, a line of paparazzi waited at Britney’s door. Britney’s photos are screaming for hundreds and thousands of dollars, especially the photo of Britney shaved her head wearing a record price with a paparazzi photo.

    Britney Spears used a parachute to attack 1 paparazzi.

    The only consolation Britney had in 2007 was the release of the album “Blackout” with producer Danja. With all the repression, frustration and resentment, Britney created the best music of her career, as one of the most influential Pop albums in history, critics spared no words for “Blackout” winged lyrics.

    However, Britney’s disastrous performance at the MTV VMAs that year continued to push things to stagnation and crisis. Britney Spears was “forced” to perform with an uncomfortable mood and psychology. Even then, Britney Spears’ weight was out of control, making the overall performance worse in the eyes of the audience.

    Writing in her memoir The Woman In Me, Britney Spears said: “Blackout, the music that makes me proudest of my career, was released on Halloween in 2007. According to the plan, I was going to perform the song at the VMAs that year to promote the album. I didn’t want to go on stage, but my team insisted that I go out there and show the world that I’m okay. The only problem is that I’m not okay…”

    Britney Spears – Gimme More performing at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards

    Stepping on stage with the song Gimme More that was causing a fever at that time, the audience saw a lethargic, tired and struggling Britney Spears to “pay” the dance moves. The movements have no life, the eyes are lifeless. Lip-syncing openly, not hiding. The performance became a “stain” in Britney Spears’ career, especially when previously the “Princess of Pop” had 3 shocking stages at this award ceremony in 2000, 2001 and 2003 respectively. The media and Britney’s colleagues themselves have not stopped openly mocking the performance, calling it a “disaster”.

    Not stopping there, Britney also revealed for the first time the story behind the scenes of that year’s VMAs. While she was on the worst day of her life after a disastrous performance, her ex-lover Justin Timberlake was having the most glorious moments. “Justin slid down the aisle to enter the performance stage. He jokes with the girls below the stage, one of whom turns around, stoops and shakes his chest as he sings. Then he sang along with Nelly Furtado and Timbaland, it was fun, it was free, it was relaxed,” Britney Spears recalled in her memoir The Woman In Me.

    Britney Spears also fully shared her perspective on the unforgettable stage in this life, making fans even more sad. “Behind the scenes at the VMAs that night was nothing wrong. I had problems with the costume and the hair extensions. I stayed up all night before. I felt a sense of urgency. I gave birth to two children for two years in a row and it was less than a year since I gave birth to my second one, but it was horrible to be treated as if I didn’t have six-pack abs. I couldn’t believe I had to go out on stage to perform with such emotions. I happened to bump into Justin backstage. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen him. His world is running very smoothly. He’s leading his own game in every way, and he’s full of confidence. I was in a state of panic. I haven’t rehearsed the performance carefully before the show.

    I hate the way I look. I knew this performance would be pathetic. That time I went on stage and gave my best, but of course this performance was still far from my best performance at other times. During the performance, I could see myself on the video screens hanging all over the stage, and I felt like it was a distorted reflection in the mirrors of the funny mirror houses in the amusement parks. I don’t intend to justify that performance, nor do I say it’s good; What I want to say is that all the performers will have bad nights. Usually those bad performances don’t have too serious consequences…”

    Justin Timberlake & Jimmy Fallon’s Harmonies on Their New Music Collab Are Amazing

    The two friends performed a medley of Timberlake’s hits on The Tonight Show‘s “Classroom Instruments” segment.

    To celebrate the release of his upcoming album, Everything I Thought It Was, Justin Timberlake appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on January 25 and performed a super fun medley of some of his best songs. The best part? The medley also included Host Jimmy Fallon and was soundtracked by classroom instruments.  .

    Watch The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on NBC weeknights at 11:35/10:35c and next day on Peacock.

    The performance started out with Timberlake crooning his new single, “Selfish,” while enthusiastically hitting a triangle. Fallon and The Roots joined along during the chorus, all nailing the high notes. They then seamlessly transitioned into Timberlake’s hits “Senorita,” “Sexyback,” and “My Love.”

    After singing the 2013 tune “Suit & Tie,” Fallon stood up and and began to shimmy during “Rock Your Body,” to which Timberlake hilariously sat him back down.

    Fallon then handled the introduction lyrics to “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” and his vocals impressed Timberlake, who gave him a nod of approval. To wrap everything up, the entire band harmonized the song’s outro soulfully in a super satisfying conclusion.

    Justin Timberlake on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

    While on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Timberlake talked about his artistic process creating Everything I Thought It Was, his first studio album since 2018.

    “Making this album is different from any other one,” he told Fallon. “I was going back and forth, two weeks writing, coming back for a month, and doing what we call writer camps, where I would work with different songwriters, work with different producers, people that I’ve worked with before, people that I’ve never worked with before. We ended up with almost 100 songs, and narrowed it down to 18 songs.”

    Timberlake will also be appearing on Saturday Night Live for the sixth time on January 27 as a musical guest, and he gushed to Fallon about how much the experience means to him.

    “There’s just so much history there, and it’s just such an institution. You go in there, and you immediately just think about all the greats again who have walked through those doors. SNL is such a special thing for me. I watched [it] when I was a kid. I was like, ‘God, I want to be on that show so bad.’ They look like they’re having more fun than anyone else in the world,” he said.

    Timberlake also announced that he is going on a world tour. Details can be found here.

    Justin Timberlake joins Portland Bike Bus as special guest

    The Portland group that organizes chaperoned bike rides so kids can get to school in “bike buses” welcomed a special guest Sunday: Justin Timberlake.

    The group went viral in October when it posted a plea on social media for the pop star to join them while in town for a concert at the Moda Center.

    The response was overwhelming — the TikTok video has racked up over 6.9 million views, and the Instagram post has about 4.5 million views.

    Timberlake joined about 200 people on bikes — mostly children and their families — for a half-mile ride down Northeast Klickitat Street to Alameda Elementary School.

    Along the route, Timberlake’s team boomed hits like “Mirrors” from speakers on their bikes. The pop star posed briefly for photos with children before leaving from the school. Students, parents and volunteers normally take the route during the school week but made a special Sunday ride to be joined by the music artist. “It wasn’t a school-sanctioned thing,” said a Bike Bus dad and volunteer Ian Downard, “I mean it never is.” He said Timberlake’s team was impressed by the turnout.

    Samuel Balto, who was at the time a Portland Public Schools physical education teacher, started the BikeBusPDX program on Earth Day 2022. Every Wednesday, Balto and his group of eager students and families hop on their bikes and pedal their way to school, rain or shine. Several other schools in Portland have followed suit.

    Why did he want Timberlake to come? According to Balto, the answer is simple. “‘Cuz he’s awesome,” he said in October. “I grew up listening to him. He’s got a lot of generational reach — everyone knows who Justin Timberlake is.”

    When asked about Timberlake’s conviction for impaired driving last fall, Balto steered clear of the topic, focusing instead on the positive impact the Bike Bus movement has on children and the community.

    “I think that Justin Timberlake joining the Bike Bus would set a great example for how people can get around — on a bike — for everyday transportation,” he wrote in an email.

    Timberlake is scheduled to perform The Forget Tomorrow World Tour at the Moda Center on Monday night.

    Jrue Holiday’s Wife Breaks Hearts with Emotional Message After Shocking Bucks Trade

    Former US Women’s National Team player Lauren Holiday shared an emotional message after Jrue Holiday was traded from the Bucks to the Celtics.

    Lauren Holiday, Jrue Holiday, Bucks, CelticsFormer Milwaukee Bucks star Jrue Holiday has already turned the page toward helping the Boston Celtics win their first championship since 2008. As his family prepares to follow him to Boston, though, Holiday’s wife, Lauren, shared a heartfelt message on social media about the massive emotional toll player trades take on their kin and community. 

    “I am sharing this so people can see the humans behind the business transactions. Because contrary to the cliche, it’s personal, meaning there are people’s lives that are affected. It’s never ‘just business,’” Lauren Holiday, a former member of the US Women’s National Soccer Team, wrote on Instagram. “On Wednesday, my husband took a nap. He woke up to news that he had been moved. No warning, no heads up, not even a conversation that it could be a possibility. Just, it’s done. Now move on because ‘it’s not personal, it’s business…’

    “So, yes, this is more than business,” Lauren Holiday continued. “Not because we’re offended by it but, because we are people, we’re humans, we have relationships, dreams, and a connection where we play. As I write this, we are grieving the loss of that while celebrating the hope and joy of what’s ahead. The growth is in allowing ourselves to feel this pain now and turn it into power for how we move forward. That’s who we are and that’s who we always will be.”

    Jrue Holiday was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers last week in exchange for Damian Lillard, ending his three-year tenure with the Bucks. The stalwart veteran guard didn’t pack his bags for Rip City, though, knowing he’d be moved elsewhere as the Blazers embark on a long-awaited, full-scale rebuild. Holiday was sent to Boston on October 1st, where he’ll play this season and likely many more after signing a contract extension or new deal in free agency next summer.

    The Holidays and their young kids—who attended school with the children of other Bucks players—can take solace from knowing that Beantown is poised to be home for the next few years. A sense of community can be built anywhere. But the special connections they made in Milwaukee won’t be perfectly duplicated, and while their local charitable endeavors will surely live on, there’s a difference for the Holidays and the many they’ve helped between Jrue and Lauren being on the ground and continuing to effect change from afar.

    No one is crying for the Holidays, and Lauren isn’t asking the masses for sympathy as her husband prepares to sign another nine-figure contract. But professional athletes and their families aren’t much different from anyone else when they’re suddenly re-located for work. Kudos to Lauren Holiday for drawing attention to that mostly overlooked reality.

    Derrick White Had Comical Line About Losing His Teeth After Celtics Win NBA Title

    The Boston Celtics added to their extensive trophy case on Sunday night, clinching their record 18th NBA championship after defeating the Dallas Mavericks in a five-game NBA Finals series.

    The team sacrificed all season long and are now set to celebrate the fruits of their labor.

    As for Derrick White, the star guard will certainly soak in the championship victory, though he’ll also be reaching out to his dentist in order get some much-needed work done.

    White took a hard fall during Game 5, hitting the floor face-first after a collision with Dereck Lively which resulted in a chipped front tooth. When asked about the incident during the trophy presentation, White comically admitted that he’d have traded all of his teeth for a ring.

    “I’d lose all my teeth for a championship,” White said while the Celtics were being awarded the Larry O’Brien Trophy.

    White was a two-way star for the Celtics throughout the playoffs, coming up with multiple pivotal defensive stops, while also proving to be a more than capable threat from beyond the arc. He averaged 13.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.6 assists per night in the Finals, while playing 36.8 minutes per contest.

    Although he’ll likely be feeling sore after the vicious fall he took during the game, the chipped tooth was a small price to pay for the glory of winning an NBA title.

    Derrick White chips tooth but luckily avoids major injury as his face smacks into the court floor – before Boston Celtics become NBA champions!

    Celtics guard Derrick White chipped a tooth after a brutal collision with Dallas’ Dereck Lively II in Game 5 of the NBA Finals – but said he’d gladly lose all his teeth to be an NBA champion after winning a title for the first time.

    On an historic night for Boston, White was fortunate to avoid a nastier facial injury in the second quarter of Monday night’s closeout game in Boston. He dove for a loose ball but stumbled and as he went head-first to retrieve the rock, Dereck Lively accidentally planted his weight onto him as he also fell to the ground.

    Lively’s forearm ended up on the back of White’s head, slamming his face onto the hardwood. Shaken up, White walked back to the bench with blood on his hand and mouth. However, the scramble did not keep him from staying in the game.

    After the scare, White shook off the impact and made a three-pointer to help the Celtics secure a 67-46 lead at halftime. It was later revealed that he chipped his front tooth while avoiding further facial injuries – the camera catching him seemingly grinning to show off the damage.

    It ended up being the endearing image of the night, with White the hero as the Celtics beat the Mavericks 106-88 to become NBA champions.

    ‘I’ll lose all my teeth for a championship,’ White told a jubilant TD Garden on the court after the game, through a swollen lip, to wild cheers from the crowd.

    ‘Man, this is what we work for. I’ll get it fixed. I’m gonna enjoy this one,’ he added.

    He scored 14 points on the night, with eight rebounds and an assist as he became an NBA champion for the first time in his career.

    The Celtics also tweeted out a picture of White smiling on the court to show off his chipped tooth on a special night for Boston.

    The Eastern Conference Champions routed the Miami Heat in five games and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the same number before sweeping the Indiana Pacers to secure another title opportunity.

    On the other hand, the Mavericks bested the LA Clippers and Oklahoma City Thunder in six before spoiling the Minnesota Timberwolves’ fairytale run in five games in the conference finals.

    The Celtics took a commanding 3-0 after winning the first three games, 107-89, 105-98, and 106-99.

    White has been vital to the Celtics’ success and is enjoying his most successful postseason run. So far in these playoffs, White was averaging a career-high 16.0 points, 4.2 assists, and 4.1 rebounds as his team closed in on the title.

    BOSTON (AP) — Jayson Tatum anotó 38 puntos con 11 rebotes y Kristaps Porzingis tuvo 19 puntos y 11 rebotes el domingo mientras los Celtics de Boston superaron el regreso de Zion Williamson a la alineación de Nueva Orleans y vencieron 120-119 a los Pelicans.

    Trey Murphy III marcó 30 puntos y Williamson anotó 16 y capturó siete rebotes en 28 minutos en su regreso tras una suspensión de un partido por llegar tarde a las actividades del equipo.

    Nueva Orleans lideró por hasta 11 puntos en el primer cuarto, aprovechando cuando los Celtics acertaron solo uno de sus primeros 11 intentos de triple. Boston terminó 13 de 44 desde larga distancia y disparó solo un 43.6% en general desde el campo.

    Dejounte Murray anotó 17 puntos en los primeros dos cuartos y terminó con 26 puntos, además de nueve rebotes y ocho asistencias.

    With the caption: “My daughter, where’s the rest of her?! Ohh I see, do you?” the post quickly went viral, inspiring more than 1,000 comments as viewers tried to figure out the optical illusion.

    A clever optical illusion

    The puzzle lies in a clever alignment of the girl with her surroundings.

    This image sparked plenty of jokes and confusion among viewers.

    “I’ve stared at this for minutes now and I’m sure she’s half buried,” one commenter joked, while others joined in, likening it to a “teleporter malfunction” or saying it’s “next-level grounding.”

    Some also pointed out the psychological aspect of the illusion, explaining that the father’s title of the post made people think they should look for a “missing half” rather than noticing the actual layout.

    The truth

    After much speculation, several commenters deduced that the girl is actually standing behind a low wall that’s a bit higher than the driveway, creating a perfect visual blend. Her legs are hidden, giving the impression that her body simply ends halfway down.

    Her father clarified that the “grass pavement is at the wall height,” and the road below her is about a meter lower, with her arm casually resting on the wall, enhancing the trick.

    Despite the explanations, the illusion continued to fool many.

    Some users noted they had to draw a mental line along the edge of the wall to make sense of the image, while others confessed that even after reading the answers, the visual effect still played tricks on their minds.

    Comments ranged from “Good stuff! I had to read the comments to figure it out,” to “God, my head was going to explode trying to work this out!”

    The post reflects the charm of optical illusions, which can make even the most ordinary settings feel like scenes from a magic trick.

    It highlights how our brains can be tricked by perspective and context cues, making everyday objects and scenes appear fantastically different.

    So, did you manage to solve the mystery of the girl’s “vanishing” legs on your own, or did you need a few hints from Reddit to crack the case?
