Here are some photos of Justin Timberlake at Comic-Con on Thursday. He was there with Anna Kendrick promoting their animated film, Trolls. They both voice trolls? Let me check that… yes, they both voice trolls, along with Zooey Deschanel, Christine Baranski, James Corden and more. But JT and Anna have been the ones doing the bulk of the advanced publicity for a film that doesn’t even come out until November. My guess is that Dreamworks really wants this to be the next Shrek-level animated franchise. Justin produced the soundtrack and contributes a new song, “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” which many believe will be a contender for the Best Song Oscar. That’s why JT is everywhere – he’s already campaigning for an Oscar! Sidenote: am I the only one who kind of hates that song?
Meanwhile, there are some assorted tabloid stories about Justin! Did you know that JT thinks he’s a massive star and he needs to roll up to a closed studio lot with nine cars full of security?
Justin Timberlake has said bye-bye-bye to the down-home Memphis boy he claims to be, and morphed into a full-fledged diva – and a paranoid one at that. Star spotted JT, 35, rolling into a screening for his new flick, ‘Trolls’, with a nine-car security entourage.
“There was absolutely no reason for it,” says the source. “It was just bodyguard after bodyguard.”
His costar Anna Kendrick and James Corden sensibly used just one car each, while Justin seems to have decided the low-key event on a closed studio lot required his own private army.
“It was kind of embarrassing,” snickered the source. “No one could understand why he would need even half that security.”

I understand having that kind of security if you’re going somewhere super-public, but for a visit to a closed studio lot? I guess there’s a chance it’s not true, but it FEELS truthy, doesn’t it? It seems in character for JT.
The second story is from In Touch, which basically says that Justin and Jessica Biel are ready to have another baby (Silas is 16 months old already) and they want to guarantee that they get a girl this time, so they’re turning to IVF. I’m not sure I believe that? Biel seemed to get pregnant without help the last time, and I would assume she would be able to again. She’s only 34 years old!
And no, I don’t know why Justin’s eyes are screaming “COCAINE!” every time he’s photographed these days.

That song is annoyingly bad and all over the radio, I don’t see how it could be nominated for an Oscar? But Sam Smith won with a bad song too so there’s not much hope.
I have to change the radio station every time that song comes on. Also, for the record a lot of people use IVF even if they don’t have “fertility issues” because they want a boy or they want a girl. I don’t agree with that but who am I?
That’s what I took out of it too. Thank the IVF is to insure that have a girl. I don’t agree with it with in reason, eg; health, passing down a default gene to a specific gender. I think lots of wealthy people as well as celebs, cough Kim, cough posh, do it. I think Christy T did it..? She was fairly open about it.
I think Christy T actually had fertility issues and as an “added benefit” was able to choose the sex. I don’t understand why it was so important for her to have a girl first. They said they want another child so if they want more than one why does it matter what sex the first one is? I don’t agree with that but like I said, who am I?
See, I had heard quite some time back that Jessica struggled getting pregnant
I have a friend who struggled for 10 years to have a baby. She could get pregnant but she couldn’t get past the second month. She lost one of the ovaries too due to complications. In the end she got IVF and she had a baby boy. She said that because it was unlikely she could have another one she made sure to have a boy to pass the name of her husband. It was super important to her (and him i guess). As far as I am concerned IF i am going to have babies i want them to be healthy. As for the sex meh. A girl can pass the family name just as easily. Look that Saldana girl. Her babies will be Saldanas
That song is so bad. Justin is just not good without Timbaland.
Anna Kendrick’s filmography is something else.
A young Oscar nominee she has some great films; but she also shows up in A LOT of dreck.
I wonder if he had eye work? I know you can get preemptive face lifts. I bet that’s what’s wrong with his eyes.
Also, while that much security is eyeroll worthy, so is this sentence: Did you know that JT thinks he’s a massive star… Love him or hate him, he IS a massive star.
And finally, Jessica Biel did a guest starred in a season 3 episode of Bojack Horseman. She was pretty funny.
I was wondering if that was really her, then I saw her name in the credits.
good bit, I thought. “Un-Biel-evable”.
It does look like he had his eyes done. Everyone of the pictures they look the same. The “too wide” open look, is always frightening. I bet he can’t fully close his eyes now, when he sleeps.
God, I just had flashes of him I the future. With his wiglet, plastic surgery pulled face, camp suits & doing his Casio gigs in Vegas.
Austin Girl *** lmao! !!!!
I thought the same thing, he is vain enough to do that but could be the coke, reminds me of when Bradley Cooper stares at the world in red carpets like ” MWAHAHAHAH Im the Last Pair of Demented Eyes you’ll see as I KEEL YOUUU”
I too was surprised she was in on the ” You Aren’t Famous, Honey” Joke
Also : that corny ass song is TUH-RRIBLE
I pretty much believe anything bad about Justin. I kinda want to like him, but I find him intensely off putting. So, 9 van loads of security? Yup, probably.
I used to find him super ugly in his NSYNC days (I was a backstreet girl), then quite handsome during the “Sexyback” times, and now ugly again… I like some of his songs but he has always seem like an awful person.
maybe his eyes are screaming that because…
…well, you get the picture.
Justin is a douche, his new song is f@cking annoying and Anna’s dress & styling are terrible. That’s all.
Yeah no, I hate it too. That cheese ball video, ugh. I watched it when you posted about it on here and knew 30 seconds in I wouldn’t like it.
Woody Allen probably found out he might be having a little girl soon so he brought in extra protection.
Maybe he got death threats? Would explain all the extra security. There are some really sick people out there
His eyes scream COCAINE
Bahahahah so true. Made me laugh out loud thank you for the laugh as always Kaiser!
I know, that was totally hilarious, xo!!
Some years ago,he did a participation in a French talk show ( Le a Grand Journal) and he already had a huge entourage of bodyguards
I saw him in London a few years ago and he had a boatload of security. They called him “the package” for realsies! It was “the package is coming the package is coming. .. The package is not coming!!!! ” we thought we were waiting for David Tennant and got JT instead. Sad day.
Hope Lin gets his EGOT next year for Moana. Don’t want JT to win
Is Star a reliable source?
Anna Kendrick deserves so much better.
I don’t think getting “work” done can change how your actual eyeballs look. My guess is definitely drugs. Either that or he’s a serial killer.
Nice to see I’m not the only one who thinks that song is terrible and that Justin looks coked out.
Maybe those guys are his very large cousins?
I feel like he’s had work done around the eyes. Botox, maybe? I think what makes them look so strange when people do that is the lack of small muscular movements around the eyes when they make facial expressions.
