Timberlake Enjoying Hope While Honing Movie Career

Leighton Ginn of The Desert Sun caught up with Justin Timbelake on Thursday (January 19), where he was participating in the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic at La Quinta Country Club. On the *NSYNC star’s mind was his acting career, which he set out to make sure he was taken seriously. “For me, I’ve had so many offers to do comedies, romantic comedies and slapstick,” said Timberlake. “For me, I wanted to take it seriously and I wanted to be taken seriously. The roles I was really responding to were the dramas. I was lucky to work my way through them.”
