Justin Timberlake (born January 31, 1981) is a Pop-R&B singer/songwriter/producer, actor and entrepreneur. He has become an accomplished artist who is now widely-considered one of pop culture's most influential entertainers. Timberlake came to fame as a member of the pop group, *NSYNC, and, through a successful solo career, has gone on to win six Grammy Awards, an Emmy Award and dozens of accolades from around the world.
In addition to music, Timberlake has also embarked on a successful career in film and television as both an actor and producer. Pursuing a lifelong passion for acting, Timberlake says, ?This art of acting is a process I love very much.? On the day you are actually shooting a scene, it?s very similar to music in that you have all of these tools that you have cultivated and thoughts that you have put into character and someone yells ?action? ? then its your job to forget everything and be in that one moment. It?s an unbelievably fulfilling experience for me and I look forward to building upon my art in the years to come.?
In addition to Justin Timberlake's multi-platinum album FutureSex/LoveSounds, which produced four consecutive #1 singles, his critically acclaimed 2007 FutureSex/LoveShow tour, and multiple Grammy Awards - he appeared in four films in 2007. Timberlake received rave reviews for Universal's crime drama ALPHA DOG co-starring Emile Hirsh, Bruce Willis and Sharon Stone. The Los Angeles Times said the movie is “a showcase of Timberlake, who turns in Alpha Dog's most nuanced performance.”
He was also applauded for his role in Black Snake Moan, Craig Brewer's follow up to his Sundance hit Hustle and Flow, along with Christina Ricci and Samuel L. Jackson which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and opened February 23rd. In the summer of 2007, he loaned his voice to the all-star cast of DreamWorks' third installment of Shrek, Shrek The Third. He starred alongside Cameron Diaz, Mike Meyers and Eddie Murphy, as the voice of Artie - the young King Arthur. In the U.S., Shrek The Third generated $121 million the 1st weekend at the box office — breaking box office records for animated movies.
And finally, Timberlake joined Dwayne Johnson, Seann William Scott, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Mandy Moore in Southland Tales from the director of the cult hit Donnie Darko. In the summer of 2008, Justin starred alongside Mike Meyers and Jessica Alba in the 20th Century Fox film, Love Guru. In 2009, Justin will appear in the independent film, The Open Road, with Jeff Bridges, Mary Steenburgen, Harry Dean Stanton and Kate Mara.
