Justin Timberlake: I Looked "Like a Moron" When I Was in 'N Sync



Justin Timberlake has only one regret in his career: sporting over-the-top costumes and seriously cheesy hair during his 'N Sync days.

"There were many moments in my teenage years where I succumbed to, um, the weirdness of the group I was in," he tells the May issue of Details. "And in trying to conform -- we're marionettes! -- I ended up looking like a moron."

These days, the singer-turned-actor, 31, takes a manlier approach to grooming. "I don't like when I see guys do too much hair gel. I don't mean Pauly D -- because that's basically performance art. But when you use enough hair gel that your hair becomes a sculpture—and you wanted it to look that way? It's just weird."

Jessica Biel's fiance prefers to rock a "shaved head" instead of the platinum blonde curls he once sported. "It's scary the first time you do it, because you don't know what's under there -- you could have some weird knot -- but a shaved head is just so easy."

The Friends With Benefits actor -- who moisturizes with Kiehl's Facial Fuel -- tells Details every man should go to "an actual barbershop" with "the whole hot-towel, old-school experience."

"You sit there and get your hands massaged while getting a shave? Nothing wrong with that."

beatlesluv 3rd-May-2012 09:26 pm (UTC)
they're better of saying "britney's ex " (as silly and time warped as it would be) compared to that
hedgerowbustle 3rd-May-2012 09:06 pm (UTC)
As opposed to?
pindycindy 4th-May-2012 01:49 am (UTC)
as opposed to looking like a little baby crying his eyes out, calling his Mommy, when he got Punk'd!! Still my favorite!
hedgerowbustle 4th-May-2012 02:05 am (UTC)
That's still one of my favorite moments! The look on his face was priceless. I still laugh just thinking about it. lol
spiderkelly 4th-May-2012 02:31 am (UTC)
yup. and he dropped that fake ass 'blaccent' real quick.

notice he dropped it for good the moment he decided to be an 'actor' and didn't need black ppl to buy his music anymore...
ellaellaeheheh 3rd-May-2012 09:06 pm (UTC)

The 90s were a dark time, fashion wise
chimbleysweep 3rd-May-2012 09:16 pm (UTC)
idk I think today is much darker. Since I'm pretty sure the dark is what people get dressed in.
piratesswoop 3rd-May-2012 09:12 pm (UTC)
this wasn't nsync's fault, it was the 90s in general

joey actually looks hot here. my brother met him recently and he is noooot looking good anymore.
pikapika217 3rd-May-2012 10:09 pm (UTC)
DAMN Joey!

Granted, I'm into bears now and still find him hot but major props to his wife for locking that down
hot143chocolate 3rd-May-2012 09:08 pm (UTC)
If it wasn't for Nsync, he would likely not have had the career he's gone on to have; not saying he doesn't apprecieate that, I just I find it a lot more appealing when people can either embrace their beginnings or have a gracious, self-deprecating laugh about them rather than condemn them with terms like "weird" or "moron."
hedgerowbustle 3rd-May-2012 09:12 pm (UTC)
I know, I hate that. Everyone knows where you came from, just embrace it, man.
streetliights 3rd-May-2012 09:14 pm (UTC)
ia.
snuffyqui45 3rd-May-2012 09:19 pm (UTC)
ia. That's why I like both James Van Der Beek and Michelle Williams.

They've both embraced it (especially James) fully.

ia, he just sounds petulant, here.
procedurals 3rd-May-2012 11:59 pm (UTC)
Same. The more he tries to run from his past, the less I sympathize with him, and other people who do this (like when Harrison Ford tries to disown Star Wars)

in_styles 4th-May-2012 03:04 am (UTC)
ia. like I know most people are embarrassed by the ~younger days but lbr here, where would he be without nsync? just give credit where credit is due imo
