Justin Timberlake Headed Solo After *NSYNC Tour

US Weekly reports *NSYNC star Justin Timberlake is set to make a solo attempt after the group finishes their tour in April. An insider revealed, “Justin wants to go solo in every part of his life. He wants to be a bachelor, and he’s looking forward to doing his own album.” Much like Sisqo’s solo venture that saw the demise of Dru Hill, the insider adds, “If he doesn’t do well, he’ll be back with them… but if it does well, he’ll break off.” A spokesperson for Jive is still denying Timberlake’s plans for a solo album, despite numerous quotes, and business meetings with Justin, from artists indicating otherwise.

    Justin Timberlake is nothing but trouble for NSYNC…he is NOT a team player and he never has been…the rest of the group, namely JC Chasez, don’t get the credit they deserve. Justin is annoying, hideous, and big-headed….i will absolutely HATE him if he breaks NSYNC up…he should be seen as a complete sell-out with no respect for the rest of the group, or the millions of fans that will be hurt by his selfish actions…i am sorry for putting him down…because he is talented…but i just can’t tell you how much it bugs me to ONLY ever hear about the shananigans he is up to.

    Poor dumb Justin! With JC you sound ok and can get by. But JC is the only voice in that group who has the talent to be solo. And wouldn’t that be sweet justice if he took the opportunity to go solo too and found the success that Justin obviously won’t. Go JC!

    He wants to be a solo all on his own?
    Well then, he does know he is now viewed as the ass who’s destroying NSYNC and who cheated on & broke up with Britney Spears on the phone. Why would anyone want to see and hear him?

    The only reason Jive is saying Justin is not going solo is because they made Jive so big. I mean he is already a solo singer because he is the only one who sings in that band. ( if that is his real voice) Jive is such a dumb record company. They say all the bad things about *Nsync are not true, but all the bad news about BSB are true. It makes no sense. Jive does everything for those 5 fakes.

    I hope Nsync splits.They are just a bunch of self-loving guys that run around on a stage and they don’t deserve even a quarter of the money or fame they have now!!!!!All of the Nsync fans don’t go trying to tell me that what I said is not true. I meant EVERY SINGLE WORD!

    Let’s not make this a battle between Nsync and Backstreet. The post is about Justin going solo let’s stick to that. Just a general statement not meant for anyone in particular.

    It is odd that everyone in the industry has mentioned something about Justin’s cd expect Justin in a public statement or Jive. We all know it is coming maybe everyone is waiting till after the tour to break the old news.

    Good Luck to Justin Timberlake (Yeah right) I hope he flops with his new more mature solo cd. It just totally makes me laugh to hear the word mature associated with Justin Timberlake. Mature, HIM, I don’t think so he broke up with his girlfriend over the phone. Yeah that was mature…and now he wants us to believe that he is coming out with a more mature sound for his solo cd. Right now everything he is doing is not very mature, so I don’t believe him when he says that his cd will be more mature.. Proof of maturity first Mr. Timberlake, and I will be one of the first people in line to buy that new cd. Just to think one time I respected you as an artist, man what was I thinking?
