Justin Randall Timberlake a.k.a. Justin Timberlake, born on January 31, 1981 in Memphis, Tennessee, is an American singer and actor who often sang himself to sleep. His debut solo album "
Justified" (2002) led him to bring home the 2004 Grammy Award for
Best Male Pop Vocal Performance and
Best Pop Vocal Album and to achieve the 2004 Brit Award for Best International Album.

Jessica Biel. After repeated denials of any hookup rumor and his public claim that Biel was just "a very dear friend," the pair gradually made public of their romance.
