TOP PICK: Justin Timberlake Leaves $4,000 Tip, Confirms He's Awesome


Hey, big spender...Justin Timberlake reportedly left a massive $4,000 tip to the waitresses at a club. Wow. When you've got extra money to spare, why not spread the wealth?

The lucky waitresses at the Crystal Cologne bar in Germany got a $3,920 tip from JT, where he hung out recently during his European tour. The owner personally invited Justin and friends and they even got their drinks on the house. But just because he's sippin' on free bevvies doesn't mean he doesn't appreciate the staff.

According to Britain's The Sun newspaper (via Daily Mail), Justin left the almost $4K tip because he's just that good of a guy. The club's owner noted that JT "was in a great mood, a real gentleman."

Harry Styles Solo Rumors Erupt Again: He Reportedly Wants Justin Timberlake's Career


Stop us if you've heard this rumor before: One Direction is breaking up because Harry Styles wants to go solo. Yep, if you feel like you're having a bout of deja vu, you're not alone. We swear this solo career buzz never dies down.

In the latest installment of "Harry's going rogue and breaking up the band," rumors are swirling that Hazza has his eye on a career path like Justin Timberlake. Which, let's be honest, is pretty much the best path to take. Ever.

You know...JT was in a little boy band back in the day, then he spread his wings and yada, yada, yada. Well, you get it. But still. One Direction isn't planning to call it quits any time soon.

And to support this latest rumor, a "source" has gone all-out, somehow pulling together Harry's love of L.A., his solo career dreams, his gig writing songs for other bands, a desire to act...heck, even Kendall Jenner's name is thrown into the mix for good measure.

The source tells Heat (via Mstarz): "Harry prefers LA because he could be a real star over there. He wants a solo career like Justin Timberlake's. He's already been writing for Kodaline and Alex and Sierra, and recording solo demos. He wants to act, too, and he can't get the real gig if he stays in a boy band that 12 year olds like. He loves 1D, but he feels it could limit his longevity. He asked Kendall [Jenner]: 'How many boy bands do you know that keep going for more than five years?'"

And, as if that wasn't enough, the insider added: "Harry's making connections--he's not taken seriously in the US yet and he wants desperately to change that. He has the big picture in mind and his bandmates know it. It's a matter of time before he goes solo."

Yeah. We're having a good laugh too.

Harry Styles wants a career like Justin Timberlake's, One Direction break up and solo career rumors coming true?


We've been hearing about a Harry Styles solo career for quite some time now, but now reports claim the One Direction singer is modeling his career off of another former boy band member: Justin Timberlake. Considering Timberlake's careers in music and movies, he's definitely a great person to emulate.

"Harry prefers LA because he could be a real star over there. He wants a solo career like Justin Timberlake's," an anonymous source told Heat in the United Kingdom. "He's already been writing for Kodaline and [The X Factor USA winners] Alex and Sierra, and recording solo demos. He wants to act, too, and he can't get the real gig if he stays in a boy band that 12 year olds like. He loves 1D, but he feels it could limit his longevity. He asked Kendall [Jenner]: 'How many boy bands do you know that keep going for more than five years?'"

This source is definitely making a ton of claims about Harry and even speculates on a conversation he had with Jenner, who was never confirmed to be his girlfriend earlier this year. Clearly Styles can and would have a career after One Direction, but we shouldn't consider it until his current contract with the boy band runs out (in 2016).

The insider added: "Harry's making connections - he's not taken seriously in the US yet and he wants desperately to change that. He has the big picture in mind and his bandmates know it. It's a matter of time before he goes solo."

Comparing Harry to Timberlake is a bit obvious, but it's an apt analogy nonetheless. What do you think of this new source's claims?

Taylor Swift music's $50 million woman


Taylor Swift, who was the first woman to pack Australian stadiums since Madonna, flogged her rivals to be music's top earner in 2013 according to US website Billboard.com's annual rich list.

Swift, now 24, made more than $44 million in 2013 based on Nielsen data and Billboard's own data — it runs the charts in the United States. More than $33 million of Swift's earnings came from ticket sales for the Red tour, which she brought here in December, last year. The rest came from physical album sales, downloads and streaming.

Swift's touring revenues were higher than any other artist on the planet, she was fifth highest earner on streaming royalties and sixth on downloads. She was downloaded 10 million times last year.

Sales of Swift's merchandise and her various sponsorships, (including Diet Coke, Elizabeth Arden and Keds, which are flat canvas shoes) were not counted in Billboard's estimates although the website estimated she would have earned at least an extra $11 million.

American country star Kenny Chesney was the second highest earner (but was $7.5 million behind Swift) with over $36 million income. The world's leading male slashie Justin Timberlake was next, then Bon Jovi and septuagenarian juggernaut, The Rolling Stones, rounded out the top five.

The top 10 was completed by Beyonce, Maroon 5, emerging country star Luke Bryan, Aussie favourite Pink and Fleetwood Mac.
Billboard's top 20 richest musicians (earnings in Australian dollars):

1- Taylor Swift $44,004,199
2- Kenny Chesney $36,529,685
3- Justin Timberlake $34,872,659
4- Bon Jovi $32,627,750
5- The Rolling Stones $29,067,924
6- Beyonce $27,079,741
7- Maroon 5 $24,702649
8- Luke Bryan $24,544,667
9- Pink $22,249,891
10- Fleetwood Mac $21,197,957
11- Justin Bieber $20,924,461
12- Bruno Mars $20,886,987
13- One Direction $19,999,176
14- Jason Aldean $19,836,051
15- George Strait $17,738 584
16- Jay-Z $17,349,620

TOP PICK: Justin Timberlake Celebrates People's Choice Awards Wins at Taco Bell


He's bringing fast food back!

Justin Timberlake scored big at last night's People's Choice Awards, taking home three awards...and apparently, winning works up quite an appetite.

The "Suit and Tie" singer hit Taco Bell for some late night celebratory food, where he happily posed with excited employees and posted the photos on social media.

"What do we do after we win 3 PCAs?!?! Easy...Go to Taco Bell!! People's Champ, baby!!" Justin captioned the shot.

Although his wife Jessica Biel didn't join him for the award show, he made sure to give her a sweet and funny shout out in his acceptance speech.

"And I'd like to thank my beautiful wife for teaching me patience and the little things, just like putting the dishes in the dishwasher," he told the audience. "It goes a long way -- fellas, you're welcome!"

Hopefully he brought home a burrito for Jess, too!

TOP PICK: Justin Timberlake Tells Beyonce "There's Something Wrong With You"


Even super talented musician Justin Timberlake is blown away by Beyonce's incredible vocals.

In a new behind the scenes video from Bey's surprise self-titled fifth album, Justin is awed as Jay-Z's wife voice as they collaborate on her song 'Rockets.'

"Justin Timberlake, Miguel and myself all worked together to write 'Rockets.' It was a moment in the studio where I didn't want to stop singing it and I just kind of zoned out," she explains as the video shows her perfectly hitting a high note.

"Um, wow! There's something wrong with you," a cleary impressed JT jokes after she finishes singing. "Thank you," she laughs.



Blue Ivy's mom felt she could finally do whatever she wanted on this record, including show her sexual side in the risque and explicit accompanying videos.

"I feel like I've finally earned the right to be me and to express any and every side of myself," she says. "I feel like I'm opening up a lot in these videos and showing a lot of sides that only a few people have ever seen. "

"Only a momma can talk like that and a wife can talk like that. That's your strength," Pharrell offers.

Watch for a cute cameo from Blue Ivy in the video, too!

Taylor Swift To Collaborate With Justin Timberlake?


Can we expect a Taylor Swift and Justin Timberlake collaboration soon? Probably!

According to several online rumors and talk, JT and T-Swift have both hinted to working together and could very easily drop a duet soon.

It's not set in stone yet or anything but Justin has reportedly been eying up the country music world and who else would be better to cross into that genre than with the country princess herself? He just recently talked her up in an interview too.

"She'll get her day in the sun when she's ready to move the needle," Justin told the Tennessean about Taylor.

"That was something I was very conscious of. I was in a group that was bigger than bubble gum. Talk about stadiums. We played every stadium in the world, it feels like. It's almost like, with anything, when you do settle into adulthood is when people respect you in a different way. But, there's no question in my mind that that's where she's going, if she so chooses. For me I am sort of the oracle of the idea, and I'm also the communicator of it."

Ok, he didn't exactly say he was going to collaborate with her but it definitely sounds like he's down for it. And we all know Taylor would work with him. Did you see her reaction to him at the AMAs?

Can you even imagine the awesomeness of Taylor and Timberlake on one track? That's what we're telling Santa we want for Christmas this year!

Do you think Justin and Taylor will eventually work together? Do you think they should? Chime in!

One Direction on SNL December 7, Justin Timberlake December 21!


There's no shortage of One Direction appearances lately--add one more exciting announcement to the list: 1D will be on SNL on December 7.

One Direction join host Paul Rudd on the upcoming episode of Saturday Night Live and we couldn't be more excited.

Paul is one of our very favorites, so a Paul/1D show is a match made in heaven.

Remember the last time One Direction were on SNL? It seems so long ago now, but they definitely made an impression and even got a little comedy time in during the Manuel Ortiz Show sketch.

Here's hoping the guys return for another sketch!

The next three SNL show hosts and musical guest were announced and they're going to be great episodes to finish out the year--we especially are looking forward to seeing what Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake will do.

December 7: Paul Rudd and One Direction

December 14: John Goodman and Kings of Leon

December 21: Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake

TOP PICK: Justin Timberlake Wants to Be a Country Music Star


Justin Timberlake's Memphis, Tenn. roots are showing through.

The "TKO" crooner, who has already achieved huge success in the pop/R&B realm, is ready to take a crack at country music.

"I still got my eyes set on a Best Country Album," he told SiriusXM's "The Highway Hot 30 Live" host Storme Warren, who asked about his nominations for the upcoming American Music Awards. "There is time for that."

As for what prompted his craving for country, look no further than Justin's hometown.

"[I] Grew up outside of Memphis, Tennessee," he continued. "Listened to country music, R&B music, classic rock, you know, everything."

And it looks like he's already dabbling in the genre.

The singer revealed there is a bit of country twang in his new single "Drink You Away" from his album 20/20 Experience Part 2.

"It's a country song to me," Justin said, adding, "Mama, I made it. I'm on the Highway," when the radio station play the song.

Justin has taken a dip into the country music world before that song though, singing harmonies on Alabama's 1999 cover of "God Must Have Spent a Little More Time on You," and crooning with Reba McEntire on "The Only Promise That Remains," which he co-wrote, according to Billboard.

What do you think? Can Justin make it as a country star?
