For most of the summer, there were persistent rumors that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Beil were on the verge of a split. Sources told Gatecrasher that Justin’s friends found Jessica to be “clingy, needy and annoying” while other sources have Justin halfway out the door. Star Magazine has an interesting story this week, something that’s been hinted at on other gossip sites – apparently, Justin Timberlake has been acting like a single guy for weeks now, and sources are hinting that Justin and Jessica Biel might be “taking some time apart”. The evidence? Jessica wasn’t at the Emmys with Justin, plus Justin was flirting with other girls, plus Rihanna, plus Jessica will be in Canada without Justin for two months. Equals break-up, I think:
When Justin Timberlake won the Emmy for best guest actor, Jessica Biel was nowhere in sight – even though she was in the same city!
And Justin was certainly wasn’t acting like he had a girlfriend at the award show. According to an eyewitness, he flirted shamelessly with just about every woman he came across, most notably Olivia Wilde. “He was acting like a total player!”
But one lady who has done a lot more than innocently flirt with Justin is red-hot Rihanna. After the MTV VMAs, Justin spent the night getting cozy with Rihanna in NYC – while Jessica was in LA! Justin and Rihanna hit up 1Oak and Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club, where she sat on Justin’s lap and the two dirty danced in a VIP section, says an insider.
Although Justin and Rihanna left the club separately, they later met up at the Hotel on Rivington, where Rihanna was staying.
“She told friends that she’s definitely into him,” says the insider. And the next day, Justin was in a panic when he found out that someone snapped photos of him and Rihanna getting frisky at 40/40.
“Rihanna is single and wasn’t too concerned,” says the insider. “But Justin’s got a lot more to lose.”
Although Justin and Jessica were both in LA in the days leading up to the Emmys, the two weren’t seen out together. The only time they were spotted together in almost a month was on Sept. 16 when the couple looked dour as they walked their dogs.
“They weren’t holding hands, they weren’t even speaking,” says an eyewitness. “He looked miserable, and Jessica was definitely upset about something.”
Now the couple will be apart for two months while Jessica shoots The A-Team with Bradley Cooper in Vancouver.

I’ve never really gotten them as a couple, which is why I tend to believe the persistent split rumors. It could be that they’re very happy together, and they’re very secure in their relationship and know that they can withstand the rumors. But whenever I see pictures of the two of them, it just looks like there’s no heat between them, and it often seems like Justin is just phoning it in. As for the rumors about Rihanna – well, if it’s happening, I’d bet it’s just a simple hookup, not anything serious. I don’t think Rihanna is ready to be serious with anyone at this point in her life.

There have been enough blind items around that I think this is true, too. I think I’ve finally figured JT out–he stays with a woman long enough that she feels there should be a more permanent commitment–then he dumps her. I think he gets off seeing a woman go through the stages of like, love, wondering if she should invest time in him (biological clock decisions), then when he sees she’s decided to stick with him he’s outta there. This takes douchery to a whole new level into the land of cruelty. He does this again and again. What a total @$$. As boring and blah as I find JB to be, I don’t think she deserves this.

There have been rumors about Justin and Rihanna for years already! Why is this news to anyone? Doesn’t anyone remember when the 3 of them were at a party somewhere, Justin left out the back door with Rihanna, and left Jessica asking everyone if they had seen him? That was a major fight that made the tabloids….It’s a shame and he should just end it if he’s not happy.

That would be an interesting couple. Not that I am a big Timbrlake supporter, but I have never liked him and Biel together.

He’s not very attractive or masculine. Rihanna could give him some much-needed creds in the industry. Sad as that may sound, because he is talented I guess. (Not into him but I think he has a future in musical parody.)

Jessica honey, no one’s lips should look like that from a relaxed position.

Yea, I could give a rat’s a** about either one of these two. Maybe if they have split, they can finally make some headlines about their work instead of their ‘relationship’. B-O-R-I-N-G!

gg,
You know nothing about music industry.
Rihanna is a flash in the pan. Justin Timberlake is a music icon.
People in the industry knows the real deal and it aint Rihanna.

an “icon”? of the music industry?
hardly.
Elvis is an icon. John Lennon is an icon. Aretha Franklin is an icon. I’d even go so far as to say Madonna is an icon.
but Timberlake? talented, yes. an icon? no.

Rihanna is WAY to beautiful to be with JT! I live in NYC and i’ve met that douche(JT)out and about in the scene. Not only is he an ASSHOLE SUPREME he not even that attractive. In NYC there are so MANY georgeous males and females that i cant understand what people see im him other than his music. It so many hot people here that JT looks like some mid-western poor kid hanging out here. COME ON PEOPLE WAKE UP!

it’s all just a bunch of rumors, as if Justin would ever date a black girl. Please!

JT is a womanizing jerk face. He loves to humiliate his women. He told the whole world he had sex with Britney, let janet jackson take the fall for the boob exposure thing, and disrespected cameron with Jessica. Jessica was a fool to think she could change him.
