Billy Masters New Column Out

Billy Masters of Filth2go.com has his new column out today with thoughts on ‘American Idol’, Robbie Williams being conveniently photographed in a nude romp with Rachel Hunter, and Britney Spears reportedly pairing with Backstreet Boys star Nick Carter on his debut solo album, and how he’d rather see Nick and *NSYNC star Justin Timberlake paired instead.

Justin Timberlake Almost Finished With Solo Debut

July 13, 2002 - Jim Abbott of the Orlando Sentinel spoke with Justin about his yet-to-be-titled debut solo album which is expected to be ready for fall release. “It’s almost done, and I’m very happy with it,” he says. “I just traveled on my own, and it was good for me to not feel like I was working. The things that have happened for me personally have definitely taken a toll on my heart. It’s been really hard for me.”

Timberlake Is Ken With A Dark Side

July 12, 2002 - ‘American Idol’ judge Simon Cowell weighed in on several pop stars to US Weekly, including Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, and Nelly Furtado. On the *NSYNC star, Cowell said, “There is something about this boy that stands out. He is good-looking but not a model - which is a good thing. The whole [breakup] with Britney has done him a world of good. It was all a bit too Ken and Barbie before. Now he is Ken with a dark side.”
