Justin Timberlake and his long time friend Trace Ayala have a special relationship. His friend and business partner spilled the beans on the fact that Justin likes to walk around naked all the time.

“Superstar Justin Timberlake doesn’t hide anything from his longtime best friend, Trace Ayala. “I see the kid naked all the time, so if he is wearing a Speedo, I’m like ‘Yeah! He actually has clothes on!” Trace, 27, tells In Touch about Justin donning a tiny, skintight bathing suit in his latest flick, The Love Guru.”

Looks like Jessica Biel isn’t the only one who gets a daily view of of Justin’s “Timberlake.” Trace also approves of his relationship with the “7th Heaven” star turned young hot Hollywood member. Ol’ Sexy Back’s past loves include Britney Spears and Cameron Diaz. Biel is refreshing to the dating palate and JT’s BFF feels she is the one for Justin, adding that he hopes they’ll get married soon. The star power couple has recently started living together according to rumors.

“You know, I have never seen him with anyone like that - ever. She is the best. I love Jess.” Trace also told In Touch that Jessica helps the pair with their denim designs.

So let me get this straight….Justin and Trace have naked time and spend hours designing hip hugging jeans together? Hmmmm….for some reason I am guessing show tunes are also involved.

Things really do seem to be moving forward in the relationship between Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel. The two have shied away from media attention – I often forget that he’s even seeing someone. And while there was a round of rumors earlier this year that Justin had cheated on Jessica with Kate Hudson, apparently everything has been going well since then. Jessica is moving in to Justin’s six bedroom Hollywood Hills home – a step Justin has never taken before, even with ex-girlfriend Cameron Diaz, who he dated for four years.

Justin Timberlake can no longer call his house a bachelor pad — he’s asked his girlfriend, Jessica Biel, to move in! “Jessica is preparing to live in Justin’s Hollywood Hills home,” an insider tells In Touch. “They’re both really excited.” But the 26-year-old actress is also hanging on to her own Brentwood, Calif., digs. “Jessica’s giving the house to her parents and brother because she doesn’t want to sell it,” the insider adds.

It’s a big deal for Justin, 27, who has never taken this relationship step before, but the insider insists that he’s ready. “They’re definitely headed for marriage,” the insider says. “Moving in is just the beginning.” So how does the couple — who have been together since January 2007 — make it work? “They avoid the spotlight as much as possible,” the insider adds. The couple has been apart while Jessica’s been filming in South Carolina. There’s plenty of room for Jess in Justin’s six-bedroom mansion.

It’s been widely rumored that Justin is going to propose to Jessica in the very near future, and moving in together seems like a logical step in that process. It’s also indicative of just how seriously they both must be taking the relationship. It’s good that Jessica’s not giving up her home yet. Hopefully thing will work out well for them.

Justin Timberlake is nothing if not hardcore and intense. Even if you’re not a fan, it’s hard to deny that he tends to put all of himself into most everything he does. Even dating. He was serious with Britney Spears as a teenager (no easy feat); Cameron Diaz in his early twenties, and now Jessica Biel. The pair have been together for almost a year and a half, and several media outlets are reporting that Justin is planning on proposing to Jessica in the very near future. Supposedly he’s already scouting private islands for the ceremony.

He has dated some of the most beautiful women in the world but gorgeous actress Jessica Biel has finally tamed Justin Timberlake. I hear he will soon be proposing and has already started looking at potential wedding venues — or in his case, islands.

The two have been dating since January last year and rumours are rife they may already be planning a family. One source said Jessica has not been drinking recently, sparking pregnancy rumours. They added: “Justin is 27 and thinking about marriage and kids. “For the first time in his life he is feeling settled and has definitely decided to pop the question to Jessica.

His No 1 choice is the beautiful West Indian island of Mustique. Words can’t do the place justice, although the official website comes close, describing it as: “An exclusive, 1,400-acre island in the southern Caribbean with lush, rolling terrain cooled by trade winds, surrounded by pristine white beaches and clear, aquamarine waters.”

Because it is privately owned by those who live there, he would be able to ban all paparazzi — and more importantly, Bizarre reporters — from even landing there. His friend added: “Although Justin has lived his whole life in the public eye, he feels his wedding is the one day that should remain private. To get all his close friends and family to Mustique will cost a fortune. But he can’t put a price on how he feels about Jessica.

I wonder if tabloids are aware that people get married for any other reason than impending pregnancy. Of course lately they’ve been proven right quite a bit, so I really don’t have a leg to stand on. But somehow I doubt Jessica Biel is pregnant. Justin Timberlake seems like he could be a pretty intense guy to be married to. And he very much overshadows Jessica. Maybe she’s fine with that. I don’t think I’ve heard a word about her without hearing much more about him. She wasn’t a huge star before dating him, but it seems like marrying Justin might kill any chance she has for a decent career of her own – a la Katie Holmes. Marry a big star and that’s all anyone’s going to talk about.

There were rumors that Justin had cheated on Jessica with Kate Hudson this past winter, and it seemed like they could be legitimate. But the pair are clearly going strong. I don’t even want to imagine what this will do to Britney Spears.

Here’s Justin and Jessica leaving a wedding held at the Oviatt Hotel in Los Angeles on May 4th. Is it me or is Justin looking a little gaunt? Images thanks to WENN.

I have never understood what the big deal is with Justin Timberlake. I think he’s surprisingly talented, but what the hell is so irresistibly sexy about him? It seems like he’s considered the ultimate celebrity to date. He’s cute, but I wouldn’t exactly call him the cat’s meow. He’s more like that plaintive cry they make when they see a bird at the window. It’s kinda cute, but entertaining for only so long. When Justin first started dating Jessica Biel, everyone seemed to act like she was so lucky to get to be with him. She’s gorgeous! He’s certainly a bigger celebrity, but it’s not like an upside down Beauty & the Beat situation. But apparently Justin didn’t realize how lucky he was. According to Star, he recently cheated on Jessica with Kate Hudson. Jessica was in England filming her new movie “Easy Virtue.” Indeed.

JT flew VIP class on Virgin Atlantic Airways and was first off the plane when it arrived at Heathrow Airport. He dashed to a waiting Range Rover for the 30-mile, 110-mph trip to 16th-century Englefield House, where Jess is working on the romantic comedy Easy Virtue. And he arrived not a moment too soon. Jessica, 25, was furious, insiders tell Star, when she got wind of the reports that he had hooked up with Kate Hudson at Hollywood club Villa on Jan. 11.

…Justin spent an evening flirting with Kate, 28. While reps deny the hookup, an eyewitness said, “They seemed to be so into each other.” By the end of the evening, Justin was “full-on kissing her. They barely came up for air!” That’s all Jessica need to hear to go ballistic.

[From Star, Feb. 11th 2008, print edition]

According to Star, Jessica claimed she couldn’t trust Justin. Shocking. Several people on the movie set said the reunion seemed stiff and uncomfortable, and Jessica wasn’t exactly throwing herself back into Justin’s arms. The mag goes on to say that Justin wined and dinned Jessica and won his way back into her heart in less than 36 hours.

“After dinner, Justin “waited until he was in the back of his Range Rover, then cupped her face in his hand,” an eyewitness reveals. “Jessica brushed the hair out of her face, and he moved in for a kiss. It was a very romantic gesture.”

[From Star, Feb. 11th 2008, print edition]

You know what else is a romantic gesture? Not making out with other women when you’ve got a girlfriend. Maybe I’m old fashioned, but that always works for me. Flying to London and driving 110-mph to get to me is really sweet, but certainly less so when you’ve been shoving your tongue down other girls’ throats.

Picture Note by JayBird: Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake in happier times this past summer.

There are some awards in Hollywood that everyone is always clamoring to win: Emmys, Grammys… SAG awards. Then there are some awards people don’t care about either way. The Blockbuster awards… the Nickelodeon awards… VH-1 Honors, crap like that. And then there’s the awards you almost don’t want to win, like cleanest female celebrity award. Which is certainly better than being voted the dirtiest celebrity, but it’s still such a weirdly specific honor that it’s hard to know how to respond appropriately. Jessica Biel has won the title of cleanest celebrity, as voted by SoCal Cleanse Detox users. I know, the greatest prestige. I’m guessing most of the voters didn’t stop to think that Biel is dating Justin Timberlake, who used to date Britney Spears. So the odds are pretty good that Jessica is now harboring at least three unique strains of Chlamydia – through no fault of her own, of course.

Jessica Biel has been voted the “cleanest” female celebrity. ‘The Illusionist’ actress and girlfriend of Justin Timberlake was named the most healthy-living star by SoCal Cleanse Detox users, while Amy Winehouse was voted the “dirtiest” and most unhealthy. While Jessica, 26, walked away with the SoCal Cleanse Cleanest Celebrity Award for the women, David Beckham won the award for the healthiest male star.

Pamela Anderson’s rocker ex-husband Tommy Lee was voted “dirtiest” male, with 45 percent of the vote, and recovering alcoholic David Hasselhoff was chosen as the second unhealthiest celebrity with 22 percent of the vote. ‘Rehab’ singer Amy, 23, who is currently battling drink and drug addiction received a huge 47 percent of the vote to be chosen as the most unhealthy female star.

She has won the offer of a 12-month supply of SoCal Cleanse Detox Formula - a detox supplement - and a Detox Lifestyle Makeover with Detox and Fitness Expert Cynthia Lea.

[From AZ Central]

Something makes me think that Amy Winehouse probably won’t be taking them up on their offer. I think it’s an anathema to even say the words “Amy Winehouse” and “detox” in the same sentence. Ironically, it’s probably the celebs voted “the cleanest” that are most likely to avail themselves of a detox. In the last year I have done three colon cleanses and one two week detox. Amy Winehouse may have the guts to stick needles in her arm and have a tube shoved down her throat, but there’s no way she’s strong enough to endure day 3 of the Colon Blow regimen.

Justin Timberlake didn’t make any friends on his recent Australian tour – he apparently got a free meal at The Jade Buddha, valued at $150, but didn’t leave a tip. Which is probably okay since it isn’t customary to tip in Australia. However, going outside and telling people that he “can’t believe they let you reproduce children” is not okay, even in Aussie.

So, I’m on Justin watch in Auckland ready for some rude and lewd behavior, and he’s apparently being absolutely charming. He and girlfriend Jessica Beil (are they official yet?) indulged in some local culture by seeing a Maori Haka welcome.

“Justin wanted to see the ‘Ka Mate Ka Mate’ haka, so we incorporated that into the welcome,” Kylie Poihipi, who was Timberlake’s usher, said.

“He was scared as [radio DJ] Stacey [Morrison] and I ushered him towards the kapa haka group. He asked, ‘Are they going to kill me’? We explained that we had to see if he came as a friend or an enemy. He said, ‘I come in peace’.”

Morrison and her Maori TV presenter husband Scott were asked to organise the welcoming party for the superstar at Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour. Morrison had printed flyers for Timberlake’s 100-strong crew with explanations of Maori tradition and expected behaviour.

New Zealand Herald

JT was then expected to respond in kind with a song, as all guests are. If you have ever seen a haka performed, then you won’t say no. He responded with You Are My Sunshine, and said “Kia Ora” a few times, which is a Maori greeting and after three years here I still can’t pronounce it.

Justin was significantly more generous to the welcoming committee than he was at the restaurant – he gifted them with 50 tickets to his show. This is extra generous as only 30 people were in the troupe.

Jessica and Justin lingered after the show and mingled with the performers. Maybe his Brisbane behaviour was just bad shellfish.

Justin Timberlake recycled a gift idea for a present for his girlfriend, Jessica Biel. Not only did he give the same gift to Biel that he once presented to Cameron Diaz back when they were together, it’s one of those gifts that’s more for the giver than the recipient. It wasn’t a power tool, but it was close. Timberlake gave Biel a customized surfboard and a year’s supply of surfboard wax because he wants to teach her how to surf. On the surface, that sounds sweet and all, but when you consider that she doesn’t know how to surf it’s just about as thoughtful a gift as a set of golf clubs for a non-golfer.

Justin Timberlake is planning to surprise his sweetie - with a customized surfboard! Justin, 26, telephoned Evolution Surf and ordered a longboard with a blue, yellow and gold design for his girlfriend, Jessica Biel, 25. According to a pal of JT, “He also put in an order for a year’s supply of Sex Wax. He thought it’d be fun to surprise her with a board and a trip to Hawaii to teach her how to surf!” Talk about déjá vu dating: JT gave the same gift to his ex Cameron Diaz four years ago.

[From OK! Magazine, print edition, November 19, 2007]

I guess if it’s a gift to announce an unexpected trip to Hawaii it’s not as bad as a toolbox, but it did strike me as a bit of a “guy gift,” especially considering that he did the same thing for Cameron a few years ago.

Jessica Biel was recently announced as the lead in the upcoming film Nailed opposite Jake Gyllenhaal. She plays a shy secretary who is accidentally injured with a nail gun, which results in uncontrollable sexual urges. When she goes to Washington to campaign for others with odd injuries, she meets up with a randy congressman, played by Gyllenhaal. It is being created by I Heart Huckabees director David O. Russell and was co-written by Al Gore’s daughter, Kristen Gore. It could be oddly humorous.

Jessica Biel is shown on 10/30/07 at a screening of “Darfur Now help” at the Directors Guild of America. Thanks to WENN and Splash News for these photos.

Both Star Magazine and The National Enquirer are running stories this week that Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are having relationship trouble, so it must be true. Biel and Timberlake, who just went public with their relationship through a series of outings last month, are said to be fighting over Timberlake flirting with other women.

The Enquirer has him flirting with “a young beauty at a turn out the vote event on September 27,” while Star Magazine names the woman he was flirting with that night as actress Kirsten Bell. Both gossip rags have The Hills‘ Lauren Conrad making a unsuccessful move for Justin, with Jessica Biel hearing about the evening afterwards and angrily confronting him.

Supposedly Justin invited Jessica to Toronto to visit him on the set of his film The Love Guru to try and make it up to her after that had that big fight over him flirting with other women:

The trouble began at a Beverly Hills “Declare Yourself 2007″ turn-out-the-vote event on Sept. 27, where, an insider says, Justing made a beeline for Heroes cutie Kristen Bell, 27. [Jessica Biel was not there that evening.]

“He was flirting heavily and being touchy-feely with Kristen,” says the insider. “They were talking very closely and holding each others’ arms. They hung out for more than an hour, whispering and laughing with each other.”

At the same time, The Hills star Lauren Conrad, 21, was making a play for Justin’s attention, too. “Everywhere he was, Lauren popped up,” the insider adds. “I don’t think either of these women considered him to be attached to Jessica, based on their behavior. (Though Kristen and Justin were both at the event, a rep for Bell claims they’ve never met.)

When word got back to Jessica, she went ballistic. “Jess just about dumped him on the spot,” says another source. “Justin got angry and said he and Kristen were just friends - but then Jessica ripped into him, demanding to know why all his friends are women and telling him that he needs to focus on her.

“Justin yelled back, saying that’s what he’s been doing. And Jessica told him, not when he’s all over someone else!”

[From Star Magazine, print edition, October 29, 2007]

Star claims that Justin and Jessica patched things up during her visit to see him in Toronto, but that it’s still rough going for them since photos of the two taken on October 9 show then walking apart and looking grumpy. It seems like they could just be annoyed with paparazzi and not with each other, but it could be true that they were fighting, especially if Justin’s flirting was well known.

Jessica is supposedly looking for more of a commitment from Justin. After dating him for ten months, she is said to want him to ask her to move in with him. She is also rumored to be looking for a token of their relationship, like a “friendship ring.”

Justin might have his own reasons to be jealous of Jessica’s friends. While out at a Packer’s game, a female friend of Jessica’s was seen grabbing her butt when Justin had his back turned.

Justin Timberlake revealed on Oprah that he enjoys using webcams with his “friends” while he’s away on tour because it makes him feel closer to them. That led me to wildly speculate that he’s having webcam sex with Jessica Biel, but I bet I wasn’t that far off the mark.

This week’s Star Magazine reports that Justin was bragging to his roadies that he’d just had sex with Jessica backstage when he was having an intermission while Timbaland performed.

Why does Timbaland have such a long performance during the intermission at buddy Justin Timberlake’s concerts? It could be so Justin can have some “private time” with his lady, Jessica Biel. On Sept. 18 Jessica and Justin had a quickie during Timbalands 30-minute sex - and when the pair were finished with their romp, Justin came out and announced it to pals hanging backstage!

[From Star Magazine, print edition, October 15, 2007]

I can see a nice quickie while you’re having a break from performing. You’re probably all riled up from the crowd, sweaty and ready to go. Bragging to your friends afterwards is lame, though, and I hope that part isn’t true.

There was a cute young married couple at one of the dot coms where I used to work that inevitably shut down. They would go out for “coffee” a few times a week and no one really cared because it was one of those casual workplaces where we had a lot of freedom before it inevitably went bankrupt, owing us several paychecks. We were all out at lunch and the guy mentioned something in passing about quickies and I said “oh, so that’s what you two are doing when you supposedly go to Dunkin Donuts.” They both turned red and I realized that I was right.

My rambling point is that there’s nothing wrong with a quickie, as long as you don’t announce it to everyone. That means you’re a little too vocal about your sexuality, not that anyone would accuse Justin Timberlake of that.

Despite not being willing to mention Jessica Biel’s name on Oprah last month, it seems like Justin Timberlake is finally ready to go public with their relationship. He was spotted out holding hands with Jessica in Toronto, Ontario last week. He was there filming a new movie.

Justin Timberlake is shown at the MTV VMAs on 9/9/07.

Justin Timberlake went on Oprah today, and without naming names he said he’s dating someone and that she “smells lovely.” To keep in touch with his unnamed love while he’s away on tour, he said they use webcams through the iChat program. He didn’t say they cyber or anything, I just made up that headline to be sensational because that’s my job. He also said he enjoys using webcams to talk to his friends as it makes him feel closer to them:

Justin has been involved in a few high-profile relationships in the past, but he’s keeping his latest romance under wraps. “I’m dating someone,” he says. “But all I can tell you is she smells lovely.”

Oprah may not get a name out of Justin, but he does share a few secrets about his personal life. “I get pretty romantic around her,” he says. Justin admits that he even sings to her sometimes.

While he’s away on tour, Justin says he stays connected to his mystery woman through iChat, a computer program that lets you see the person you’re talking to with a webcam. “Technology is a wonderful thing sometimes. … I find that to be really cool, when you can actually see someone’s face. I do it with my friends, as well, just to have a conversation back and forth. It just makes you feel closer, that’s all.”

Dating isn’t easy—especially when your relationship gets played out in the public eye. In a past interview, Justin said tabloids create soap operas out of people’s lives. “If two famous people are dating each other, what I found—and I could be wrong—but just in my personal experience, [they think] if you’re not going to get married, then you’re breaking up.”

[Oprah.com via GossipRocks]

It’s cool to hear a celebrity extol the virtues of technology. My husband and have used webcams when we’re away from each other and I use them with my family so they can see their grandson, they’re a lot of fun and do make you feel closer to the person. There’s also something romantic about it if you’re using them with your significant other, like the person is so real to you but so far away.

Oh and Justin talked about Britney to Oprah, and pretty much said he was too young to know her that well, that they were both kids, and that she has a big heart. He said he has nothing but love for her but hasn’t talked to her in years. He pretty much dispelled any myths that he was helping her out during her divorce or that he had talked to her while she was in rehab, as has been rumored.

Oprah: What do you think is going on with Britney?

Justin: I don’t know, to be honest with you. I haven’t spoken to her in years. I mean, there’s no ill will—I have nothing but love for her. It’s funny because we dated each other at a time…wow, I haven’t talked about this in a long time. It’s interesting.

Oprah: But you’ve never talked about it to me, so it’s okay.

Justin: Hey, let’s get it in, girl.

Oprah: Let’s get it in.

Justin: We were teenagers, you know?

Oprah: Yes, famous teenagers.

Justin: I think that’s basically the best way to describe what happened to us. I think she’s a great person, and I don’t know her as well as I did …. What I do know about her is she has a huge heart, and she is a great person.

[From Oprah.com]

He answered that quite diplomatically and was non-committal. He probably practiced it and gave Oprah the go-ahead to ask about Britney.

Meanwhile Justin hints at his rage at the paparazzi by saying they’re constantly around, even when he tries to do something boring like go grocery shopping. He said that if he thinks too hard about it, it can “consume” him”

Even when he’s doing something mundane, like grocery shopping or walking his dogs, Justin says he has constant companions…the paparazzi. At first, he says their presence was surreal.

“[When] you drive out of your [driveway] and people are kind of sitting waiting to follow you, you know, ‘He’s going to go to Whole Foods. We need to capture that.’ You’re just like, okay, this is kind of weird. … You kind of try to pretend it’s not there.”

Over the years, Justin says he has become defensive and protective if the paparazzi followed him while he was with friends and family. Now, he tries to come to an agreement with photographers. “It’s like, ‘Look, you guys have the technology of telephoto lenses and you can shoot those pictures [from far away],’” he says. “I think it’s one of those things that, if you let it, it will consume you.”

Justin was recently videotaped bitch-slapping a paparazzo and has been involved in well-publicized scuffles with them in the past.

Justin credits his success to his hard work, and says that it doesn’t come by luck. As for how he leads his everyday life, he says it’s kind of boring and that he enjoys golf, having game nights with his friends, and getting off remotely with Jessica Biel. Of course I made that last part up, but it’s all I could picture when hearing this story. Someone please hack into that stream and tape it for the benefit of the Internet gossip community.
