In Da (Golf) Club 

So! Here's the latest picture of Justin Timberlake:


Oh, OK, this is really it:



Yup, that's right. As you can see, the man who is widely considered to be so cool that he's the most likely successful solution to the whole global warming 'thing' sees nothing wrong with spending his free time playing golf, a pastime whose only real rival in the "middle aged" stakes is "getting pleasure from listening to Virgin Radio". It seems not only does he bring sexy back, but also forward in a perfect arc, connecting powerfully with the ball which heads off straight down the fairway, cleverly avoiding any sandtraps which may be laying in wait. Or paparazzi, as they're otherwise known.

This pic was taken at Carnoustie Golf Course in Scotland, where Justin is currently enjoying a family holiday - although given that golf is involved, we use the word 'enjoying' loosely - and as he's a top hyper celebrity popstar, this isn't the only activity he has planned for his Scottish trip. Oh no! He's a trendy man about town with a reputation to keep up, so with that in mind he's going to be visiting the Isle of Mull as Balamory, his favourite TV programme ever - in a recent video he cited PC Plum as the true inspiration for Rock Your Body - is filmed there. He's also planning on trying to spot the Loch Ness Monster, or Michelle McManus as she's otherwise known, getting his picture taken next to a bagpiper and he's also hoping to pick up a copy of the new CD by The MacDonald Brothers, as he's been led to believe, by the same people that told him to take up golf, that they're a hip young combo with an exciting new sound that's just waiting to take the world by storm.

He may also return with a tartan Tam O'Shanter hat with tufts of ginger hair sticking out of the side. It's nice to know he still cares enough about Britney to bring her a present back, isn't it?

News Justin 

Americans! Not content with merely bringing it back, Justin Timberlake, much in the manner of an old Victorian showman who's just taken delivery of an unusually large monkey, will soon be taking sexy all over the US as he kicks off the second leg of his tour of North America's favourite industry sponsored enormodomes. And along with the sexy, he'll no doubt throw in a few crotch grabs, high pitched squeals, and some ballads that go on just a bit too long for good measure. Justin will also be performing 'in the round' which, if our experience of similar events is anything to go by, means that you'll be spending a large part of your time staring at the back of Justin's head. Here are the dates:-

August 6 - Memphis, TN - FedEx Forum
August 7 - Atlanta, GA - Gwinnett Center
August 10 - Boston, MA - TD Banknorth Garden
August 13 - East Rutherford, NJ -Continental Airlines Arena
August 15 - New York, NY - Madison Square Garden
August 18 - Montreal - Bell Centre
August 20 - Toronto - Air Canada Centre
August 25 - Winnipeg - MTS Centre
September 1 - Las Vegas, NV - Mandalay Bay
September 5 - Vancouver - GM Place
September 7 - Portland, OR - Rose Garden
September 8 - Tacoma, WA - Tacoma Dome
September 10 - Sacramento, CA - ARCO Arena
September 12 - San Jose, CA - HP Pavilion
September 16 - Los Angeles, CA - Staples Center

Anyone considering attending is advised that with that much sexy going around, all sorts of shenanigans can take place. We're not saying that a descent into a bacchanalian orgy is guaranteed but, well, we'd suggest wearing your good underwear, just in case. And clothes that you don't mind getting dirty. Or are wipe clean.
