Justin was born on January 31, 1981 in southern Tennessee, in a religious and incredibly musical family. In his hometown Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis began their path to fame in Memphis at one time. Justin's father, Randall Timberlake, played guitar in a band and conducted the choir at a Baptist church on holidays and weekends. His grandfather was also an excellent guitarist and in his youth was even friends with Elvis Presley. 
Justin's parents got married very young and divorced when their son was not yet five years old. Soon his mother remarried, and his father also started a second family, which included two more sons. Justin's parents managed to maintain friendly relations, so he never felt left out and got along well with his stepbrothers.
Musical ability the boy began to manifest himself in early childhood. Justin's grandfather taught him to play the guitar, and his father often took him to his concerts. WITH early years his idol was Michael Jackson, and often, as soon as he heard the sounds of one of his songs, the boy began to dance, imitating the famous “moonwalk” of the king of pop.
It is not surprising that already at the age of 12, Justin appeared on television: first in the StarSearch program (“Looking for a Star”), where he performed simple songs in country style, and then in the children’s entertainment show “The Mickey Mouse Club.” There he met Britney Spears, who a few years later became his girlfriend, and Jaycee Chases, a future colleague in the group N'Sync.

Justin was invited to the N'Sync group when he was barely sixteen years old. Despite his mother's fears, the guy was able to perfectly combine performances in the group with school and acting classes. 
Very soon the boy band became extremely popular, and its members became the favorites of millions of fans in all corners of the planet. N"Sync performed at the world's most prestigious venues, and their discs sold in huge quantities.
The next album of the group N "Sync, entitled "Celebrity", was released in the summer of 2001 and became a big event in the world of pop music. The success of the record came thanks to the hits "Pop", "Girlfriend" and "Gone", written by Justin Timberlake.
It was in the second album that Justin's composing talent manifested itself. The single “Pop” received four MTV VMA awards and was recognized as the most successful hit of the year.
Solo career
But in 2002, at the peak of popularity, Justin decided to leave the group and start a solo career. To many then this act seemed reckless, except for his mother, who always believed in her son. 
Indeed, the success of the debut album young singer"Justified", released the same year, exceeded all Justin's expectations, and his fans were able to see that their idol had his own original musical style. Everyone especially loved the tracks “Cry Me a River” and “Rock Your Body.” Within a year, Justin won two Grammy awards and was among the twenty richest and most successful performers in the world.

Having started his solo career, Justin wanted to create real popular music for the older generation, and what he did while in N'Sync did not in any way correspond to his view of music. In 2003, at the MTV Europe Awards, he was the main laureate.
An incident that could have had a controversial impact on his future career occurred in 2004, when he performed with Janet Jackson at the Super Bowl of American Football. Thousands of viewers, millions of television viewers, and Justin accidentally (he said it himself later) tore off the very part of Janet’s clothing that covered her breasts.

Justin Timberlake had to apologize in writing. After this, he was allowed to attend the ceremony.

In addition to Justin, this boy band included Chavez, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone and Lance Bass.
By the way, Timberlake was the youngest member in the team. At that time, Justin was only 16 years old. Therefore, young Timberlake had to combine his creativity with his studies at school, which he, nevertheless, successfully coped with.

And already their second album, No Strings Attached, released in 2000, makes N Sync one of the most popular American groups in the world of show business, and also brings the guys three awards at the MTV Video Music Awards. The next Celebrity album was in no way inferior to the first two. Songs such as Pop, Gone and Girlfriend were written by Justin himself and became major hits of 2001.
