Justin Timberlake
Biography

Justin Timberlake is yet another famous singer from Memphis, Tennessee, city with great music traditions. His birthday is January 31, 1981. Producer Lou Pearlman helped Justin and his friend JC Chasez to form boy band NSYNC, which became very famous soon afterwards. With 11 million copies sold, their first album, which was self-titled, they became new Backstreet Boys for new generation. Second and third albums were hits too. Still, unfortunately for other member of band, Justin had greater ambitions. After few more tours and notable performances at events such as Superbowl, he left the band. Being already a celebrity, Justin was able to perform his premier single “Like I Love You” during MTV Video Music Awards. Debut album “Justified” did not sell as well as previous NSYNC offerings, but still sold a very decent number of copies. During three years of waiting for his second album – “FutureSex/LoveSounds” – he toured heavily with Christina Aguilera and did few McDonald’s promotions. This album extensively utilized relatively new at that time service iTunes, and topped its record of pre-orders. Of course, celebrity of this caliber cannot live without Grammy Awards, and they came to Justin in 2008, when he won Best Male Pop nomination with song "What Goes Around... Comes Around" and Best Dance Recording nomination. After this, he focused on film career and acted in few noticeable movies, such as The Social Network. In 2013 he returned to music with “20/20 Experience” album duology.
