Timberlake on something or other

In a GQ interview, Justin Timberlake says he was infatuated with ex-girlfriend Britney Spears from the moment he met her, ahead of his new album.

Have you noticed how the drip drip drip of Justin Timberlake news has already kicked off in anticipation of his new album? Clever PR that. Robbie's people are similarly skilled at feeding the press with nonsense stories in the run up to major releases (knowing how much we love nonsense stories, I know we do) so, even if the two top popsters don't end up competing for record sales, they're sure to be competing for column inches.

Anyway, the latest Timberlake story doing the rounds seems to come from that previously reported GQ interview (which I think was the one where he talked about drugs and stuff). Anyway, in it he also admits to being "infatuated" with ex-girlfriend Britney Spears from the moment they met. He told the magazine: "I was in love with her from the start. Infatuated with her from the moment I saw her."

So now we know. Oh, and he's got a record out sometime soon too.
