Justin Timberlake is a Cocky Little Punk

Former Cameron Diaz doormat Justin Timberlake decides he’s going to talk like a big boy in the latest issue of Details. For a guy whose post-boy-band career goals have amounted to becoming a slightly whiter Michael Jackson, he sure does think he’s bad, don’t he?

“I tried so hard to be an R&B artist [with first solo album Justified] and it was the pop album of the year, and I was like, ‘Fuck. That’s the last thing I wanted but I was like, ‘So everyone considers me a pop artist? Well, fuck it. I’m going to do whatever I want to do.”

He had this to say about moving beyond *N’SYNC:

“I could give you a bunch of analogies about why I’m still around that would sound like hippie self-help bullshit. ‘I saw an opportunity and I took it?’ Fuck you. Sure, there’s a lot of luck involved. But on some level I have to believe in my ability. And I’m not apologizing to anyone. I worked fucking hard to get here.”

Okay, tough guy… here’s some advice. You’ll always be a Mouseketeer who joined a bunch of other sissy boys to make bad music before succeeding at emulating a freakish pedophile. Let’s skip the Kid Rock phase and head straight to the inevitable three nights a week Vegas act before someone gets beat up, aight lil’ wannabe playa?
