BiographyJustin Randall Timberlake (born January 31, 1981) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actor, and dancer. Dubbed the "Prince of Pop", Billboard honored him as the best performing solo act on Pop Airplay and one of the greatest pop stars of the 21st century. Timberlake remains among the best-selling recording artists of all time, with sales of over 117 million records worldwide. His awards include ten Grammy Awards, four Primetime Emmy Awards, three Brit Awards, nine Billboard Music Awards, the Contemporary Icon Award by the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and MTV's Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.

Born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee, Timberlake appeared on musical television shows as a child, competing on Star Search; in the early to mid-1990s, he was a cast member on the Disney Channel's The All New Mickey Mouse Club, where he performed cover songs, skits, and choreography. While on the show, Timberlake worked with future bandmate JC Chasez, and the two rose to prominence in 1997 as the lead vocalists for the boyband NSYNC. The group released four commercially successful studio albums, becoming one of the best-selling boy bands of all time with sales of over 70 million units worldwide.

Timberlake established himself as a solo artist with his first two albums, Justified (2002) and FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006), both of which sold over 10 million copies and received triple platinum certification by the RIAA, with the latter becoming his first US Billboard 200 chart number-one album. He further topped the chart on three more occasions, with The 20/20 Experience, The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2 (both 2013) and Man of the Woods (2018). The 20/20 Experience became the best-selling album of the year. Throughout his career, Timberlake scored numerous high-charting US Billboard Hot 100 singles, including "Cry Me a River", "Rock Your Body", "SexyBack", "My Love", "What Goes Around... Comes Around", "Dick in a Box", "Give It to Me", "4 Minutes", "Suit & Tie", "Mirrors" and "Can't Stop the Feeling!", which earned him an Academy Award nomination.

Timberlake enhanced his popularity with an acting career. He landed starring roles in the films The Love Guru (2008), The Social Network (2010), Bad Teacher (2011), Friends with Benefits (2011), In Time (2011), Wonder Wheel (2017) and Palmer (2021). He also voiced Artie in Shrek the Third (2007), Boo-Boo Bear in Yogi Bear (2010) and Branch in the Trolls franchise (2016–2024).
