Is Justin Timberlake preparing Olivia Munn as his jumpoff from Jessica Biel?

Last week, one of the big stories was Us Weekly calling Justin Timberlake out for cheating on his long-suffering girlfriend Jessica Biel. Once I had read the full Us Weekly piece, I felt strongly that Olivia Munn – JT’s alleged mistress/lover/jumpoff – was the one to leak the story. Maybe not Munn herself, but definitely someone in Team Munn, just because too many of the “unnamed sources” were tilted towards a position of “Poor Olivia, JT lied to her and promised that she’d be his girlfriend, how was she to know that he’s a player, despite all of the evidence?” Plus, I think Olivia figured two things: one, the story would be more sympathetic to her if she leaked it herself, rather than another tabloid reporting a colder version of the cheating story, and secondly, I think she really wants to be JT’s girlfriend, and she’s trying to force him to dump Jessica Biel, or have Biel dump JT.

So… keep that in mind when you’re reading Us Weekly’s follow-up. Either JT is totally pissed about the story coming out and he’s even closer to Biel, or he’s still “in contact” with Olivia Munn:

Justin Timberlake was fuming on the LA set of his new film, I’m.Mortal, October 27, the day Us Weekly revealed he had cheated on Jessica Biel by having a three-day affair with Olivia Munn in September. His rep strongly denied the liaison.

“He was talking on the phone and texting non-stop,” says an eyewitness. “He was in a foul mood and seemed pissed off.”

But bad news and his ensuing bad mood didn’t stop the actor-singer from communicating with Munn, 30 (he rep does not discuss her personal life).

“They have been in constant contact since the story came out,” a source tells Hot Stuff. “Justin says he loves talking to her because she makes him laugh. He wants to keep Olivia hanging on – and break up with Jessica.”

Meanwhile, Timberlake spent Halloween weekend with his girlfriend of nearly four years, in British Columbia (where she’s filming), prompting one insider to speculate, “He doesn’t really want to break up. He’s spending all his free time with her.”

For some reason, Biel and JT are sticking to each other like glue. It’s like they both think they need each other… either that, or they really do love each other…? I know some are of the opinion that JT needs his “Hollywood girlfriend” if he’s going to make it to the Oscars (chuckle), and that Biel needs him because he makes her relevant, but I’m going to be bold and suggest that neither of them needs the other one, and that they’d both be much more interesting without each other.

Also, one last story – Star Magazine (via Jezebel) is getting on Us Weekly’s bandwagon, and Star is reporting in this week’s issue that JT’s excuse to Biel was that he’s an “easy target” now that The Social Network is so successful. Right. Anyway, Jessica bought that argument, according to Star’s sources, “even though he’s been cheating on her for years.” Right? How is his attachment to a successful movie any bigger or better than his success as a pop artist?

    All three of them are lame. I don’t get the appeal of any of them.

  2. serena says:

    I don’t think he’ll leave Jessica for Olivia. Probably he only played a bit with her and now she’s thinking of marry him.
    Look at the evidence: he may be a playboy but Jessica is thousand times more beautiful then that Olivia-something (who the hell is she?).

  3. anjasmomma says:

    Since Olivia Munn has been on the Daily Show I find her more obnoxious than Biel. Surely JT could have done better?

  4. Marjalane says:

    I still don’t understand how Jessica Biel could in any way be an asset to J.T.’s career. At this point isn’t she a bit of a joke in Hollywood? I never think of her as an actress, I think of her as a cosmetic spokesgirl.

  5. mln says:

    I don’t think they will do anything until after the award season is over. JT doesn’t want to look like a douche and have that overshadow his ‘triumph’ and Jessica is making sure she gets to wear on the pretty gowns.

  6. guesty says:

    isn’t that what he did with cameron…remember how she freaked out on him @ some after party cuz jbiel was there? so sounds plausible.

  7. David says:

    Olivia Munn is an upgrade

  8. PsychicEyes says:

    I expect to see JT propose to Jessica within six months. He’s keeping her and Munn is not going to break them apart.

  9. constance says:

    Olivia Munn is soooo phony. Obviously she’s plugging these stories to keep herself relevant. Sad… but I can’t watch her Daily Show appearance, I skip over her whenever I watch online. I’ve met her in person and the conversation was… lacking.

  10. anti says:

    he wants to have his cake and eat it too… seems as if one of those women should have enough self respect to leave him. the “winner” doesn’t really win and he’ll just cheat on them too.

  11. tony says:

    I know Munn and she has been talking about her fling with JT nonstop. She is obviously not concerned about who knows that she slept him. We are all sick of hearing about it but she is clearly enjoying her flash of tabloid fame. Even if it does mean that she is a slut.

  12. brin says:

    @Oi….I agree, they are overrated…who cares.

  13. Kaiser says:

    tony – that’s very interesting! Can you provide any more details?

  14. loopygorilla says:

    lol i cant stand them all.
    biel thinks she is our next meryl streep and justin thinks he is our next clint eastwood.

    get fked!! justin is a white boy who thinks he is black and tries sooo hard to get street cred.

    biel is just a really really really poor actress lol, and she gets cast cuz of her knockers.

    justin wasnt any good at the social network, For FK SAKE! people, he was told to act like a douche in the movie… he is a real douche bag, so the acting wasnt far fetched.

    lol at justin thinking the social network will make him into the new leonardo di caprio… DREAM ON.

  15. Stronzilla says:

    Meh, they seem more co-dependent than in love. But you have to wonder why this guy bothers with the whole ‘steady girlfriend’ routine when all he does is cheat on them.

  16. gabs says:

    Its sad that both these women think hes a catch. JT is a cheater. How could anyone put up with that? Major douchebag vibes

  17. junk573r says:

    I think it’s funny that Olivia Munn is anything at all. I wasn’t aware she was on the Daily Show (? too lazy to look that up). I remember just a couple years ago she was the G4 tv host for Attack of the Show. She was terrible and was actually the replacement for a fairly attractive, witty, and talented girl. She struggled with her comedic timing and fucked her lines up all the time. I believe they forced her to lose weight because when she first started, she always had the unfortunate bulgina shadow and if you can’t deliver your lines you’d better be hot.

  18. dejii says:

    I think Olivia is not pretty. Not saying Jess is – she’s kinda manly…who knows.

  19. Darla says:

    I watched for the first time on the Dail Show, now I know to DVR it so I can fast forward through her parts, because she sucks so bad the magazines on my coffee table kept flapping open towards the TV.

  20. alejandro says:

    Source is Olivia Munn herself trying to get press and make it seem as though it was more than a 3 day bang. He’s not leaving Jessica especially now that awards season is around the corner.

    If there is one thing that Justin loves more than lots of p ussy it’s his Golden Boy image in Hollywood. He would never risk that and be perpetuated as what he really is (a cheater) shocker! That would mean a big chunk of his female fan base would be put off.

    Imagine the guy that sang Cry me a river with such conviction being a cheater himself? They’d flip.

  21. devilgirl says:

    Am I the only person who finds Munn rather ugly? I see nothing pretty about her, and I have to disagree with the poster who said Munn is an upgrade. Maybe in the personality dept. (I really know nothing about her), but certainly not in the looks dept.

  22. maria says:

    Both women are so bland. White toast, both of them. Whatever.

  23. anoneemouse says:

    JB is a fool for staying with him – every time this happens it makes her look bad. He is a tool and not even a good-looking one at that. The nerd look suits him.

  24. jack says:

    munn is so not an upgrade. she’s a slutty, no-talent fugly chick who seems to be getting fat lately.

  25. tango says:

    Losers all. JT for supposedly loving a woman but cheating on her constantly. Jessica for giving him numerous repeat chances to be faithful &/or falling for his lame excuses and Olivia for just being stupid.

    Though maybe Olivia is the smart one. She’s getting publicity that she’d otherwise never get. I think she went into the short affair thinking it was a win for her whether JT dumped Jessica or not.

    Jessica is the one who really needs Justin to make her relevant.

  26. Meanchick says:

    Does anyone else find what OM did oh, I don’t know, HO-ISH? Women are so ruthless to one another. How do you promise someone they’ll be your girlfriend? Did he pass her a note in study hall? This is quite childish. Boning a guy will not make him leave his girl, nor will it make YOU his new girl. The way you get em’ is the way you lose em.’ Remember that OM.

  27. Jezi says:

    It seems Justin gets bored with his girlfriends once he hits the 4 year mark. Watch, as soon as they hit 4 years he will break up with Jessica and start dating Olivia or someone else.

  28. Johnny Depp's Girl says:

    He’s not going anywhere, why break off a good thing? He’s getting his cake and eating it too! He can do whatever he wants with no consequences… Wouldnt you stay? (if you were a bastard like him)

  29. Shi-gatsu says:

    If he gets an Oscar nomination, I will shoot off my pinky toe. Noooo Nooo Nooo!
    That cannot happen!

  30. TG says:

    If JT makes it to the Oscars that mamma’s boy will bring his mother so Biel bet get ready for that. Of course she will be at the after-parties but it is the Red Carpet that counts.

    I have said this before but look at photos of JT’s earlier days when he was making it in hollywood the Cam Diaz days and you can see from his expressions and the way he holds himself that he is trying to be taken seriously and be hot and is really insecure, now he has swallowed his own BS and he struts around like he is a king.

    I hope that cutey Mila Kunis did give him a set-down.

  31. bellaluna says:

    Sorry, but if he’s Award material, then so am I. He makes me want to stab myself in the eye with a fork. Or the ear, dependent upon whether he’s “acting” or “singing.” Either way, if I can avoid him, I do.

    When Love/Sexy (or whatever) came out, I thought he was Janet Jackson. That speaks volumes.

  32. Kiska says:

    I don’t get the fascination with Munn. She did appeal to the geek demographic when she was on that techie show. Otherwise, besides showing off her pancake flat assets, who is she really? She’s not funny nor is she very bright.
    Honestly, I don’t even think she is that attractive. Whereas, Jessica Biel is a beautiful woman.

  33. Jeri says:

    JT must be Joe Jonas’ hero.

  34. Hautie says:

    I am still amazed by his PR team has been able to constantly keep this whole Oscar award bit in the news.

    Madonna stands a better chance of getting an Oscar than this fool. And we all know that is not going to happen either.

    I still stand by my bias opinion that Jessica is going no where. He will have to forcefully remove her from his home… to get rid of her.

    She will never willing leave. Ever.

  35. mln says:

    I think alot of you are giving Jessica a pass she grabbed JT while he was still involved with Cammy which is why Cammy shouted her down and got up in her face at that party years ago. And this isn’t the first time JT is rumoured to have cheated just the most visible. Basically JT has made it clear he has no intentions of marrying. Jessica has been happy to look the other way. I do think eventually Jessica will leave when her clock starts ticking and she wakes up and realizes there is no way he will ever marry her, with all his royalties the douche worth 70 million he is taking all that home to mama.

  36. Danny says:

    I always thought JT was gay. Not that it’s any of my business.

  37. Brayton says:

    Justin is not gay. He loves pussy way to much. This is being put out in the rags but Olivia’s people or herself. She’s not very smart with this one. If Justin gets pissed enough he’ll just flat out ruin Munn.

    Word has it that Jon Stewart was gonna keep Munn off the rally and the show last week but she begged him not too and told him that this would never happen again.

    Like most JT will not dump Biel until after awards season and if he doesn’t do it then he’ll just give in a put a ring on it.

  38. tvcon says:

    Earth to Olivia Munn you were nothing more than a fling. He’s not gonna break up with Jessica Biel and come to you. Like Brayton said Jon Stewart wasn’t happen with your actions so unless you want to go back to that G4 channel if I were you I would shut the hell up.

  39. lucy2 says:

    The only reason for JB to put up with this is that being his girlfriend keeps her relevant…because her acting career sure isn’t.
    I don’t know much about Munn, but I saw her on the Daily Show recently, and she sucked. There are some awesome people on that show, and they should all be mad she’s taking any of their screen time, because she was pretty awful. And I think it’s lousy to fool around with someone you know is in a relationship.
    I think his behavior is gross and don’t think he’s at all good looking. If you want to sleep around and have fun, knock yourself out, but break up with your girlfriend first.

  40. LT says:

    Both of these women = blech. It’s like trying to choose between a horse and a potato.

  41. Moreaces says:

    Justin seems like such a child, I dont know what women see in him,, Oh money

  42. adam says:

    Justin has a greasy forehead

  43. Someone Else says:

    @ devilgirl –

    No. And I think her face is crooked.

  44. Chris says:

    A jump off for Justin? Nah, he’s not like that. Justin would go to great lengths to avoid the dreaded rebound relationship. So after one relationship ends I reckon he’d be the kind of guy who’d stay single for a few months just to sit with himself and process his feelings, for he would know that you have to learn to be comfortable with yourself before you can be comfortable in a relationship. You have to remember the man is an artist , so he has the sensitivity of an artist. He can’t just go giving his heart to one girl after another, it’d be too painful for him.

  45. truthzbetta says:

    I was going to say it was about that time for JT to move on, right on schedule. Then I saw #2. He’d probably rather do Brit Brit now– with all the kids, horse hair between bald patches, usedness, and crazy.

  46. truthzbetta says:

    And Biel is the prettiest, low talent horse I’ve seen since Julia. JT is pure fug. A gazillion preteens and their teen choice mom, Cameron Diaz, CAN be wrong!

  47. Camille says:

    They are all boring/unattractive and I wish they would all go away.

  48. Kim says:

    Has anyone ever noticed he always dates bigger/tomboyish girls??? Whats up with that?

  49. Kim says:

    Who cares – wasnt his heyday like 1990?

  50. Crash2GO2 says:

    ROTFLMAO @ Chris!!

  51. marisa says:

    this Olivia Munn chick is not cute. That is all. 🙂

  52. Liam says:

    Justin Timberlake is so ugly and gross, if it weren’t for his money he’d probably be nailing hookers in Las Vegas working as a creepy bartender.

  53. PsychicEyes says:

    One final comment…

    I don’t really sense that JT is a douche — he’s just smart not to commit until perhaps he’s 100% sure she’s the one — what is wrong with trying different shoes until the right one fits perfectly? And sure he’s having his fun and perhaps checking out some girls; nothing wrong with that. I truly sense that he would make a stable and caring partner and an amazing father. That’s my feelings.

    And I wouldn’t be at all too surprised if Jessica lands a serious acting role that might get her nominated — I really feel this will happen and people’s general perception that she’s a mediocre actress will change.

    Either way, time will only tell. I do feel these two will be headed for marriage in the very near future.

  54. Bobby the K says:

    Jessica really is attractive.

    Besides her sh1tty timing, something else i don’t like about Ms. Munn is the sound/tone of her voice. And her truely fake way of faking emphasis.

    And like i said before, the writers aren’t giving her the good material.

  55. samanthalous says:

    JT is going the Cloney route.

  56. tvcon says:

    Living in LA you here rumors. The newest rumor is taht Olivia is indeed the one that planted the story and there is NOTHING to the rumors of an affair. She’s only doing this for publicity.

  57. Kricket says:

    is anyone fond of the William Rst clothing line?

  58. Kricket says:

    !!balls!! i meant *Rast*
