Justin Timberlake's 'rents are Lynn Harless (who runs an entertainment management company called Just-In Time) and Randy Timberlake. Justin has two step-brothers named Stephen and Jonathan. Justin had a twin sister, Laura Katherine, who died minutes after birth.
Although Justin made his TV debut on the '80s talent show, Star Search, he lost. Justin's first real break came when he was cast in The New Mickey Mouse Club (MMC). That's where he met Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Keri Russell, and future fellow *NSYNCer JC Chasez.
Chris Kirkpatrick wanted to start a vocal group so he contacted Justin, who he had met at various auditions. After the end of MMC, JC Chasez had stayed in Orlando with Justin, and so they both decided to join Chris Kirkpatrick's vocal group. One night, they met up with this dude named Joey Fatone who they kinda knew and he wanted to join the group too. A guy named Jason was the the fifth member. Justin's mom came up with the name *NSYNC by using the last letter in each guy's first name. Jason dropped out and Justin's vocal coach suggested this kid from Mississippi named Lance Bass. Not satisfied with just being a member of the biggest boy band around, Justin launched a solo career with his album Justified.
When Justin's not chillin' with his best friend, Trace Ayala (who designed clothes for the now-defunct clothing line FuMan Skeeto), he's mixin' things up with the ladies. Justin Timberlake - as the whole planet knows - used to date Britney Spears. In 2002, Justin was spotted locking lips with pop diva Janet Jackson at Missy Elliott's birthday bash. These days Justin has turned his attention to Charlie's Angel, Cameron Diaz.
