Biography
Timberlake was born in Memphis, Tennessee to Randall Timberlake and Lynn Harless. His paternal grandfather, Charles L. Timberlake, was a Baptist minister, but Timberlake considers himself more "spiritual than religious".His parents are now divorced and both have remarried; his mother, who now runs an entertainment company called JustinTime Entertainment, has remarried to Paul Harless, a banker, while his father, a choir director at a Baptist church, has two children, Jonathan and Stephen, from his second marriage.
Timberlake grew up in Millington, a small town just north of Memphis. In 1993, he got his first taste of fame when he joined the ranks of The Mickey Mouse Club. There he met future girlfriend and pop superstar Britney Spears, future tourmate Christina Aguilera and, perhaps most importantly, future bandmate JC Chasez. When the show ended in 1995, Timberlake recruited Chasez to be in a new all-male singing group he was forming with friend Chris Kirkpatrick. The group would come to be known as 'N Sync. In 1999 Justin acted as Jason Sharpe in the made-for-TV movie Model Behavior.
Timberlake's biggest inspiration is The King of Pop, Rock & Soul Michael Jackson, which is noticeable in his dancing and singing style.
