Justin Timberlake was born in Memphis Tennesse on January 31, 1981 |
| His singing was first notice when he was little and was in the Mickey Mouse Club with other artists such as Christina Aguilera, and Brittney Spears |  |
 |
In the 90's he was part of the group Nsync. Their self-titled first album went diamond, selling over ten million copies in 1998, and reaching number two on the charts. Its success was followed by the seasonal release of their holiday album Home For Christmas, which went multi-platnium. |
| Then
the guys hit a snag, as they entered into legal disputes with their
management. The band fought for finances, freedom and even their own name.
The guys went back in the studio, and after a highly publicized court
battle, they signed a new record deal with Jive Records and released the
"No Strings Attached" album. The album was released in March of
2000 and broke records with one million copies sold the very first day and
2.4 million albums purchased within the first week. The first single
“Bye, Bye, Bye” which was later nominated for a Grammy award for song
of the year, was a huge success, and was followed by the equally popular
“It’s Gonna Be Me” and “This I Promise You.”

You", "Cry Me A River", and "Rock Your
