AskMen.com's Justin Timberlake Interview - 9/2/10
|
|
 |
AskMen.com,
9/2/10 --
He's not just blessed with being a handsome, musical mastermind.
Justin Timberlake is the kind of rare guy men enjoy glugging beers
with, women dream of introducing to their grandmother and
professionals clamor to work beside.
One of the latest collaborations the star has made is with French
brand, Givenchy, to come up with Play, a fresh fragrance with a nuance
of that hip and smooth Timberlake attitude. Venturing into perfumes
is a likely progression for someone who has already dabbled in film,
TV and fashion.
Despite the time difference, his endless list of appointments and the
searing temperature in
Dubai, the "SexyBack" singer took time out with AskMen's Tarek
Hijazi for what seemed like a chat with an old friend. Laid-back,
genuine, insightful, and to our -- and a lot of people's -- surprise,
6-foot-1 Timberlake elaborates about the connection he feels with the
modern scent, why he admires doctors so much and how jet lag and fame
come hand-in-hand.
Q1: AskMen.com : Tell us about your experience with Givenchy?
Justin Timberlake :
When we first started on this
partnership, it wasn't for the women's fragrance, it was for the men's
fragrance, obviously, and that's been out for a while. I think it was
just sort of a natural progression for them to move to the women's
fragrance as well. I had a little more of creative input on the men's
fragrance than I did on the women's. I told them I did not want to
have anything to do with the women's fragrance because I didn't even
know what to do (laughs).
On the men's side, they sent ideas my way to see how I responded to
them, and I responded well to everything that they were making. I
thought it was really cool, and non-traditional. We collaborated on
the scent, the bottle and on everything else. It was a full
collaboration, and it was a lot of fun.
Q2: AM : What is it about Play that makes it so unique?
JT :
I give credit to Givenchy because they were
trying to turn the perfume industry on its head and I think they did a
good job of it. It doesn't look like a huge teardrop bottle. I think a
lot of perfumes and
cologne are sold to men and women in a very whimsical way, and
Givenchy wanted to do something modern and sleek, and I think they
accomplished it. The bottle looks like an MP3 player and so the name
was really just a play on words.
Q3: AM : They say "Play for Her" is tailor-made for the female
alter ego of the daring "Play man," which is you. In just a few words,
how would you define a female alter ego of yourself?
JT : Modern, sleek, bold, playful, fresh, and not too serious.

'The Social Network' Makes Its Way On To Facebook -
9/1/10
|
|
 |
Forbes,
8/31/10 -- Last month,
I reported that Sony had turned to Twitter to advertise its new
movie The Social Network. That's because Facebook wouldn't let
Sony use its site to advertise. The film is based on the book The
Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook A Tale of Sex, Money,
Genius and Betrayal.
"A Sony spokesperson
told All Things Digital that Facebook doesn't allow ads that
reference the company unless Facebook is cooperating. Facebook is not
cooperating on the movie …"
The Social Network,
which opens October 1, is one the studio's big fall movies. Not
advertising on Facebook would seem to cut off a big advertising platform
for Sony.
But the studio has found a stealthy way of getting the
film on Facebook anyway. Yesterday Sony
launched the official movie web site. The front page of the site
offers one social media option: to "like" the movie on Facebook. (There
are more sharing options once you go inside the site.)
So far 28,000 people have clicked on the option which
makes a note appear on a user's feed saying so-and-so "recommends the
movie The Social Network on
500millionfriends.com." The link takes users to the new movie
website which includes photos and videos from the film.
This might turn out to be an even more useful (and
cheaper) form of advertising for Sony. Many Facebook users are wary of
the ads that pop up alongside their news feeds. But they trust their
"friends" to recommend stuff that they might actually like. |
Transcontinental shift: Hollywood is all aboard Union
Station - 9/1/10
|
|
 |
The Los Angeles Times,
8/31/10 -- It's a sweeping romantic
moment set against the grandeur of New York's Grand Central Terminal,
venue to countless poignant moments of tearful farewells.
A forlorn young woman, suitcase in hand, buys her train ticket from the
kiosk when her lover appears from out of the shadows to present her with
a bouquet of flowers. The couple embrace and leave together on a horse
and buggy waiting outside the station. Cut.
The scene, from the
Justin Timberlake
romantic comedy "Friends
With Benefits," is supposed to unfold
in New York's renowned example of Beaux-Arts architecture. But the scene
will in fact be filmed this week in downtown Los Angeles at Union
Station, just the latest in a long line of movies, TV shows and
commercials that have showcased the Mission-and-Modern-style station.
"It's an homage to all the great films that have shot at Union
Station,'' said Glenn Gainor, head of physical production at Sony
Pictures Entertainment film unit Screen Gems, which is producing the
movie, a bicoastal production shot in both New York and L.A.
The movie started filming in L.A. earlier this month and highlights many
of the City of Angels' landmarks, including the Hollywood sign, the
intersection of Hollywood and Vine, Grauman's Chinese Theatre – and
Union Station.
"Union Station is one of the more beautiful locations in L.A, from its
Art Deco 1930s tiles to its vacant ticket station, " Gainor said. "It
has superior architecture and was built at a time [1939] when people
really sweated the details. It's always on my radar."
In "Friends With Benefits," the Union Station scene
unfolds as a movie within a movie. Justin Timberlake's character is
watching a romantic comedy on TV with his girlfriend, played by Mila
Kunis. Timberlake's character notices palm trees in the background, and
remarks that the station is in fact in L.A., not New York.
The line is partly an inside joke about how Hollywood often disguises
L.A. for other locations, and partly a tribute to one of L.A.'s
signature locations, said Doug Dresser, the film's location manager.
"It's one of the timeless treasures of L.A.," he said.

Justin Timberlake Considered for Quentin Tarantino
Movie -
8/31/10
|
|
 |
Showbiz Spy,
8/31/10 --
DIRECTOR Quentin Tarantino
wants
Justin Timberlake to
star in one of his movies!Insiders say the
Pulp Fiction filmmaker is considering the SexyBack
hitmaker for a new violent epic based around a trainee hitman.
"It's a kind of dark comedy, very much in the
Tarrantino style," reports a Hollywood mole.
"Justin is a new raw talent when it comes to acting
but Quentin feels he could be ideal for the lead role. He's excited
about taking a teen heartthrob and turning him into a cold-blooded
killer."
Timberlake
recently admitted he's "insecure" about his talent.
"I think I'm equally insecure about both of them," he
said. "I've been doing this for two thirds of my life and I still
consider myself pretty young but I think that's the part you battle with
all the time.
"When you're creating your art, that's the best part.
Your senses are on a creative high and then the part where everyone gets
to see it and comment on it, that's the part I think you battle with
until you die.
"It's absolutely terrifying." |

Justin Timberlake, PSF transform music room at Angono
art school - 8/31/10
|
|
 |
Manila Bulletin,
8/31/10 -- With help from
Justin
Timberlake and his friends, the PLDT-Smart Foundation (PSF) recently
completed a major overhaul of the Angono Regional Pilot School for the
Arts (ARPSA) music room in Angono, Rizal.
The P1-million project was made possible by the recent "Changing Lives"
benefit concert organized by concert producer Francis Lumen, Smart
Infinity and PSF featuring international artists Timbaland, Justin
Timberlake, and Jojo.
The newly-renovated and refurbished music room was repainted, rebuilt
with a stage for performances, and given new recording equipment and an
air-conditioning system with the help of the Philippine Constructors
Association and Architect Carla Suiza.
The PSF also donated instruments including violins, a cello, a double
bass, an electronic piano, and a complete sound system.
"The music room fulfilled our promise to Justin Timberlake that we help
budding musicians and artists affected by Ondoy and Pepeng. We want
ARPSA to be a center for the arts," said PSF president Butch Meily.
"Timberlake wanted to help kids with their music programs and musical
instruments since music is close to his heart. Smart Customer Care
identified the beneficiary," added Meily.
A pioneering arts school, ARPSA is government-run high school dedicated
to developing students through a curriculum that emphasizes performing,
musical and visual arts.
Last year, the school was devastated by super typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng,
which damaged parts of buildings, destroyed books and instruments, and
even caused the death of one student in a landslide.
The music room's unveiling, hosted by ARPSA principal Amihan
Reynes-Fenis, featured performances by ARPSA's dance troupe, chorale,
and orchestra. |

RBR.com,
8/31/10 -- Oscar de la Renta, Diane Von
Furstenberg,
Justin Timberlake, Tory Burch and Anna Wintour will be
among the many fashion industry stars featured in FASHION'S NIGHT OUT
2010, a one-hour primetime special that takes viewers behind the scenes
of the world's largest fashion celebration, to be broadcast Tuesday,
Sept. 14 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. The
special will be hosted by Emmy Award-winning actor Neil Patrick Harris,
star of the CBS comedy series, "How I Met Your Mother."
The upcoming special will focus on year two of
Fashion's Night Out, including "Fashion's Night Out: The Show," the
largest public fashion show in New York City history with more than 150
models, at Lincoln Center on Sept. 7, 2010, and the actual Fashion's
Night Out event three days later on Sept. 10, taking place in New York
City and more than 100 cities across the country and 17 nations around
the globe. Featured fashion luminaries include Anna Wintour, Vogue
editor-in-chief; design icons Oscar de la Renta, Diane von Furstenberg,
Tory Burch and Tommy Hilfiger; Justin Timberlake, co-founder of William
Rast; emerging designers Alexander Wang, and David Neville and Marcus

America (CFDA). Cameras will follow these celebrities, designers,
editors and retailers as they prepare for one of the most anticipated
events of the year, providing a unique view of the creative and
logistical work that goes into coordinating an event of this scale.
Looking beyond the glamour to the real-life
implications at stake, the show will also focus on individuals working
in all parts of the industry for whom the vibrancy of the fashion
business is a question of economic survival - from Wintour's initial
meetings in Paris with her international editors to discuss plans for
this year's event to interviews with sales managers at the Gap about how
Fashion's Night Out benefits the retail industry.

Megastar Concert Pairings - 8/31/10

MTV,
8/31/10 -- When
Jay-Z and Eminem take the stage in Detroit at Comerica Park on
Thursday and Friday and again in New York at Yankee Stadium on September
13 and 14, it be a meeting of two of the biggest names in rap, who
between them have sold more than 120 million albums.
But their pairing is just the latest mega-coupling in
the history of tours that promised to bring together the best of both
worlds (sorry,
Jay and R. Kelly, we tried not to bring that one up). Among our
favorites:
Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera
The Justified/Stripped Tour may go down as the last hurrah
of the teen-pop era. The 2003 joint tour between the former 'NSYNC
legend and the pop diva was a high-tech, big-budget extravaganza that
found both singers at the peak of their powers.

8/30/10 --
Madam Lefigaro did an interesting
interview with
Justin, during one of the filming sessions of
Friends
With Benefits. It's a very nice read.
You get to learn lots of stuff about him, so check it out:
When were you happiest?
I don't remember specifically. However, when I'm in the nature, on a
golf course or in the mountains on my snowboard, I feel immediately at
home.
Your main character trait?
It's a tough question you are asking me. Say, whimsical. I have my ups
and downs, like everyone else.
The one you are least proud of?
Maniac.
The number 1 song in your playlist?
Imagine, John Lennon, and the Gregorian repertoire, Hallelujah is one of
the most fabulous pieces.
What do you do to combat stress?
I play golf. I take my clubs and I get alone for five hours.
Your favorite drink?
Burgundy. I'm not sharp enough to give you the name of a vineyard, but a
good glass of burgundy with friends, there is nothing better for a good
evening.
Thanks
misterjustintimberlake for finding the interview =)

The New York Times,
8/25/10 --
In a recent "Theater Talkback" on the ArtsBeat
blog, Charles Isherwood, a theater critic for The New York Times,
asked readers to recall their favorite replacement performers in
Broadway shows. Here is an edited selection of their responses:
The No. 1 replacement actor for me, and the one that gets
me "are you nuts?" looks from people who never saw him on the Broadway
stage is (please don't laugh)
Joey Fatone
in "Rent." Not calling him a
better actor from a talent perspective, no suggestion of anything that
extreme — but just so right for the role IMHO that the relationships
snapped together for me, exceeding previous viewing and spoiling me for
later viewings.

Added pictures of
Justin Timberlake
shooting a scene with Emma Stone for his latest movie 'Friends
With Benefits' in Los Angeles, CA.
Click here to see the pictures
Also according to
Wikipedia here is a short description of the movie:
The story centers around two professionals that meet that are too busy
to find a mate. They agree to have an intimate relationship with no
strings attached. Things get complicated when the guy falls for the
girl, who's dating someone else. The script was written by Keith
Merryman and David Newman, but Gluck is expected to do a polish of the
script.
Director Will Gluck discussed the plot and his approach to dealing with
a storyline with similar themes to previous films by stating: "Every
romantic comedy over the last twenty years is about the same thing,
right? The two characters in this movie played by Justin and Mila are in
this generation like you and me where they've grown up on romantic
comedies. They comment about these romantic comedies throughout the
movie, and as they go through their storyline, they realize that they're
in a romantic comedy story — as two regular people who aren't in a movie
would comment on. They're very cognizant that they're in this story and
they're like, 'Oh, we know how this is gonna end,' and they think
they're gonna be different, but they end up embracing the fact that
they're going through a romantic comedy moment."
Thanks Gkay for the heads up =)

The Los Angeles Times,

It wouldn't really be the New Yorker Festival without
a little Malcolm Gladwell, would it? Today the New Yorker announced the
lineup for its October festival of culture, arts and the written word.
Who's taking part? A lot of the usual suspects, regular and high-profile
contributors to the magazine: Malcolm Gladwell, Susan Orlean, Alex Ross
and Atul Gawande. Editor David Remnick has dibs on the
most-likely-to-be-fun panel, "Live From New York," with Seth Meyers and
other staff from "Saturday Night Live."
Those are some of the writers -- but there are also the people they
write about. Cellist Yo-Yo Ma; actors Alec Baldwin, Patricia Clarkson
and Steve Carell; economist Paul Krugman; fashion designer Maria Cornejo;
and screenwriter Aaron Sorkin with "The Social
Network" stars Jesse
Eisenberg and
Justin Timberlake.
