Justin Timberlake recently expressed that he wants to quit music (http://www.pr-inside.com/justin-timberlake-considers-quitting-music-r21544.htm). The 25-year-old singer is just two solo albums old in the music industry.

Timberlake who entered the music world with the boy band, N-SYNC, says he's "sick of unwanted attention from female fans." Apparently, he is quite disturbed by the crazy fan antics to grab his attention. He says, "I've had bottles of pee thrown at me, and had girls try to tear my clothes off. I don't want to be jumping around on stage 10 years from now."

His latest album, FutureSex/LoveSounds was released in September. The album is produced by Timbaland, JAWBreakers, Rick Rubin, and Justin himself. The official site for Justin Timberlake states http://www.justintimberlake.com/ that the album has debuted in the number one position on the Billboard chart both in the US and across the globe including in Canada, Ireland, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Singapore among other countries.

It sold more than 600,000 copies in its first week. Described as being "all about sexiness" and aiming for "an adult feel,” the album has broken the record for the largest iTunes pre-order and largest one-week digital album sales in history, breaking a record previously held by Coldplay.

In this album Justin "sexyback" Timberlake, explores a different vocal delivery than the R&B sound of his debut, Justified. Critics have called FutureSex/LoveSounds, "a completely nonsensical title." The album is also criticized for overusing sound devices and the loop button. "What Goes Around" focuses on Timberlake's vocals and eases off the sound effects. The Gray Kid, known for his rapping, has recently released an entertaining parody of Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack." In the video, Gray Kid mocks the pill popping culture and sings in Justin's intonation.

Justin Timberlake started his solo singing career in 2002. Justin has also appeared in few films but has until now failed to establish himself as an actor. Justin had a cameo in "On the Line" which was released in 2001. He played the role of a journalist in Edison Force (2004). He would be seen in Black Snake Moan, Richard Kelly's Southland Tales, and voice a young King Arthur in the animated film Shrek the Third, which will be released in 2007. Timberlake's fans also noticed him as young Elton in Elton John's video for "This Train Don't Stop There Anymore."

Timberlake was titled "Sexiest Man" by Teen People and Cosmopolitan magazines. Currently, actress Cameron Diaz is Timberlake's love interest. There were mentions in the tabloids earlier this year that the couple had broken up. However Justin recently told the media that they both are putting off the decision to marry in order to preserve their sex life. According to the “Sexiest Man”, , “That's the thing about marriage. We like having sex. Why would we want to ruin a good thing?"

Justin will be seen at the 13th annual MTV Europe Music Awards (MTV EMAs) in November 2006, where he will host as well as perform.. Justin is also nominated in the Best Male and Best Pop category.
