Justin Timberlake

American singer and actor · United States · On the map · Musicians · Born 1981 · age 45

He went from boy-band poster boy to the artist who made pop credible again in the 2000s - collaborating with hip-hop producers when no one else was, turning "SexyBack" into a cultural reset, and proving a Disney kid could actually sing.

About this person

Justin Randall Timberlake was born January 31, 1981, appeared on Star Search as a child, and spent 1993-1995 on The All New Mickey Mouse Club before rising to fame in the late 1990s as a member of NSYNC, one of the best-selling boy bands of all-time. His first solo album, Justified (2002), sold over 10 million copies, but it was FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006) that made him unavoidable - debuting atop the Billboard 200 and spinning off three number-one singles including "SexyBack" and "My Love", all built on collaborations with The Neptunes and Timbaland. He added a fourth chart-topper with a feature on Timbaland's "Give It to Me" and began acting in films like The Social Network (2010) and Friends with Benefits (2011). His next three albums - The 20/20 Experience (2013, the year's best-seller in the US), its sequel The 20/20 Experience - 2 of 2 (2013), and Man of the Woods (2018) - all hit number one, and "Can't Stop the Feeling!" from the Trolls soundtrack became his fifth chart-topper and earned an Academy Award nomination in 2016.
