Justin Timberlake Says He Looked 'Like a Moron' Back in His 'N Sync Days: Did He?

In case you never realized it before, Justin Timberlake is a bit of a metrosexual. In the May issue of Details magazine, he opens up about his grooming rituals and admits he looked like a moron back in his 'NSync days. (See a ridiculous shot of Justin at :17 in the video below.)


"There were many moments in my teenage years where I succumbed to, um, the weirdness of the group I was in. And in trying to conform -- we're marionettes! -- I ended up looking like a moron," he admits. Today, he's not only improved his wardrobe, he also has a beauty regimen that would make any woman jealous. "Going to an actual barbershop -- the whole hot-towel, old-school experience. You sit there and get your hands massaged while getting a shave? Nothing wrong with that," he reveals.

He also dishes: "The one trick that works for me is to keep the mustache above the lip trimmed neater, so I really don't have to worry about the rest of it. That changes everything." And he's very particular about his dental hygiene. "I broke out my Sonicare two years ago, and my dentist is way more complimentary now. And some Crest Glide floss, with the Scope mint. You gotta clean your gums, man. Talking about it makes me want to floss right now."

But don't come near him with the hair gel. "When you use enough hair gel that your hair becomes a sculpture -- and you wanted it to look that way? It's just weird." Do you think Justin TImberlake looked like a "moron" back in his 'NSync days?

    I used to think he sucks. Now I actually like him, but that's probably because he found something that works for him...acting. Singing is not his thing lol. He's a good actor though.

    I'd kinda like a choice that's in the middle. Yeah it wasn't his best look, but who really cares? We all went through dumb looks and it wasn't that bad

    Not only that, but the whole "band" were dinks. play an instrument, guys.
  • TKramar Christo... 2012/05/07 06:55:28

    Mick Jagger and Robert Plant didn't play instruments, their voice was the instrument they chose.
  • Christo... TKramar 2012/05/07 17:47:31

    I thought they played guitar or bass.
  • TKramar Christo... 2012/05/07 18:24:44

    I think Plant *can* play keyboards, but generally, no. They're the group's singers.

    Your voice is an instrument as well. A 5 part harmony song in acapella is still music.

    That said, they played musical instruments as well.

    He looked fine, just a lot younger. I know how he feels, though. I look back on my high school pictures and think "what the hell was I thinking?" I had Flock of Seagulls hair. Still love the Flock of Seagulls, but that look was ridiculous.

    He looks gay. Still does. He is no different from beaverboy. Once a gay teenbeat thing, ALWAYS a gay teenbeat thing.

    So what if he looks "gay?" There is nothing wrong with being--or looking--gay.

    Its not my fault teenage girls want the gay look. It just gives girls an unrealistic standard for boys. The only way a guy can be perfect according to the teenbeat view is if he's gay. Just look at Ricky Martin.
