Justin Timberlake Stops By ‘TRL’

*NSYNC star Justin Timberlake stopped by MTV’s Total Request Live. Timberlake talked about his foot injury, the status of *NSYNC, his latest video ‘Cry Me A River’ and the controversy it has created, and more. When his bandmate JC Chasez saw his ‘She’s Blowin’ Me Up’ open the show at #10, he explained like they have fans do, “I’m Justin and I want to vote for JC Chasez he’s hot with his long hair and dancin’ his tail off in this video ‘She’s Blowin’ Me Up’… Oh, my God!” Speaking of religion, on the west coast at least, when the VJ’s compared his appearance to Jesus (I assumed that was the bleeped word anyways), they bleeped it out. Read on for a transcript.

it up to me, lala to talk all about. All right. Now this this video we
kinda see a dark he does side playin’ like a stalker. How was it you know
transitions into that kind of –

Justin: Well, you know how the video came about was francis lawrence
the director came to me with the treatment like this song kinda ges m a
dark vibe I wanted to go for something edgy like the matrix and sorta dark.
I was for it man I definitely wanted to do something different. I fel the
song was different and you know it’s kinda crazy because when you do a
concept-driven video he can — it can eats be really cool or corny so I
knew eaming]

TRL: Thank you.

Justin: I knew, I knew with getting a director like francis who shoots
things so cinematicly I was gonna get such a cool video.

TRL: Justin when you make a video like this people are gonna talk.

[Cheering]

TRL: But you know what, we’re gonna end all this like I promise you’ll
never hear anything else about this out of my mouth.

Justin: All right.

Justin: I tuned into trl yesterday and I saw something said the word
is on — the war is on there is no war nobody is at war and this — my
– my known on the video is the video speaks for itself eats when you watch
it you you have a sense of hum more or you don’T.

TRL: Final word. That is the final word why don’t you go ahead and introduce
