Accepting his trophy at the IHeartRadio Awards last night for Song of the Year, “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” pop star Justin Timberlake had a message of inclusion for his young LGBT fans:
“I wrote this song because I wanted it to be about inclusion, about being together. I guess I want to take this opportunity and speak to young people right now cause there’s a lot of you looking at me.
“If you are black, or you are brown, or you are gay, or you are lesbian, or you are trans, or maybe you’re just a sissy singing boy from Tennessee. Anyone who has treated you unkindly, it’s only because they are afraid or they have been taught to be afraid of how important you are.
“Because being different means you make the difference. So, f**k ‘em.”
Watch below:
Here’s a prediction not based on politics: Justin Timberlake’s new single – “Can’t Stop The Feeling” – is certain to hit it big this summer on the radio.
With smooth vocals, pop-y syncopated rhythms, and a chorus that tells you to “dance, dance, dance,” it’s a sure bet the song (from the soundtrack of Timberlake’s upcoming movie, Trolls) will be everywhere.
The 9-time Grammy Award winner throws in some of his signature falsetto, along with groovy bass beat, which gives the track some Michael Jackson-infused funk.
Love it.
New video for the first single “Love Never Felt So Good” from the new Michael Jackson album XSCAPE.
The video cuts focus on Michael Jackson’s famous dance moves. Timberlake wisely avoids recreating the steps, but he drops some of the Jackson style on us.
You can definitely imagine this song being from Jackson’s Off The Wall era. The video context helps the song, in my opinion.
XSCAPE is an album of previously unreleased Michael Jackson songs. The album is produced and curated by Epic Records Chairman and CEO L.A. Reid, who retooled the production to add a fresh, contemporary sound that retains Jackson’s essence and integrity. It’s a process Reid calls “contemporizing.”
The hugely anticipated Michael Jackson-Justin Timberlake duet “Love Never Felt So Good” has arrived on the internet via Justin Timberlake’s Twitter account. The song is from the upcoming MJ posthumous album Xscape.
There is also a MJ solo version of the song. Listen here.
The song was written in 1983 in a session with Paul Anka and Kathy Wakefield. In 1984 Johnny Mathis released a version.

Will they or won’t they? Rumors are running wild that 90s boy band NSYNC will reunite at tonight’s VMAs on MTV.
Fueling the fire is a newly opened Twitter account that sends first tweet – “Mic check, mic check one.. two… is this thing on?!”
I freely admit I was a boy-band fan of the 90s. Lots of fun music came out of it, and I love that it’s coming around again now.
Watch the VMAs to see if Justin Timberlake reunites with his former band-mates.
In the meantime, check out just a couple of NSYNC’s biggest hits:
How cute is this?
These fans were assembled under the idea that they were going to help announce Target’s exclusive deal to release the physical CD of Justin Timberlake’s CD “The 20/20 Experience.”
I think what’s most interesting is how they react to seeing JT one on one. We’re so used to seeing fans react “en masse” but when you’re one on one? Whole different experience.
Made me laugh. Fun video.
