Does Justin Timberlake smoke pot? 'Absolutely'There's plenty of gossip about who the now-single Justin Timberlake is or is not dating, but he tells Playboy that you should probably forget what you heard. "None of it’s true, so I shouldn’t even dignify it with an answer," he says of the Internet rumors about his love life."The thing is, I’m not going to sacrifice my friendships with people who are my co-stars...I’m not going to avoid spending time with people because someone who doesn’t know me makes assumptions about what’s going on. That’s bulls--. My life is not on the internet.” Of course, one of those supposed relationships was happening with his "Friends With Benefits" co-star Mila Kunis, an affair they've both denied. But about his sex scenes with Kunis?
Timberlake tells Playboy, “I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t completely awkward. I couldn’t tell you the number of people in the crew watching me and my bare a–, but it was a lot." With all of that awkwardness, it’s no wonder Timberlake sometimes feels the need to mellow out once in a while. On whether he’s a pot smoker, Timberlake answered, “absolutely.” “The only thing pot does for me is it gets me to stop thinking,” Timberlake says. “Sometimes I have a brain that needs to be turned off. Some people are just better high.” The actor has been providing more laughs than songs as of late – the 30-year-old says that cracking up an audience, as he’s done on “Saturday Night Live,” is now his most "favorite thing in the world" – and unfortunately for fans of his music, it doesn’t sound like he’s picking up that part of his career anytime soon. “I don’t have a single song ready to go. People keep asking me when a new song or album is coming out, and I don’t know what to say,” he says. “Music is not my focus right now. It may be someday. It could happen next month or next year but right now it’s not where it’s at for me.” The business side of the industry may have something to do with it, as Timberlake says it “taints an artist’s desire” to create new tracks. “I love making music. I honestly love it. But there is a level where making music becomes a total life-sucking commitment,” he says. “To do an album and a tour, you have to be absolutely certain that whatever you have to say is from the heart, because you’re going to say it a thousand times – and on nights when you don’t feel like performing...But I haven’t felt that level of conviction the past few years. And without that conviction it’s crazy to put yourself out there.” And while it may not be his focus now, Timberlake’s relationship with music goes way back, predating the 'N Sync craze and some of his infamous fashion mistakes. “Not a lot of 10-year-old Caucasian kids were running around Millington, Tennessee, signing Stevie Wonder and Al Green songs, which were the songs I felt most connected to,” Timberlake says of his musical roots. “I wasn’t cool with the white kids because they thought I wanted to be black. And I wasn’t cool with the black kids because they thought I wanted to be black. So I was looked at as a traitor and an intruder or an imposter. I had to find solace in just being me.” "Friends With Benefits" and "Bad Teacher," both starring J.T., open July 22 and June 24, respectively. You can read the full interview with Justin Timberlake in Playboy when it arrives on newsstands Friday.

Have you deemed adding additional video clips for your blogs to keep your readers much more entertained? I mean I just read over the article of yours and it was very good but as I'm really a visual learner,I found that to become more useful. Just my my idea, Good luck
Few months ago some dudes high on marijuana, drove down our neighborhood and ran through stop sign and hit an SUV. Killed 18 month old in SUV. What was sad was that he was so doped up that he was laughing when our neighbors ran to the car to see if everyone was ok. When cops arrived he said he wasn't drunk he was just smoking weed with his buddies.(Sigh) All this talk about legalizing this mess. Maybe some people can handle it, but why take the chance? Yeah alot of tax dollars wasted putting dopeheads in jail. But damn do we really think the answer is legalizing? We can debate all day about this until you witness first hand a tragedy. Yes a death relating to marijuana usage! Yes it is a gateway drug. It would be a gateway to a lot more destroyed lives than what we all think. But who cares you guys just keep on smokin'
“Not a lot of 10-year-old Caucasian kids were running around Millington, Tennessee, signing Stevie Wonder and Al Green songs"
"Signing" the songs? Was he deaf as a child???
he smokes? suddenly i have a lot more respect for the guy

I love how being under the influence is the new "Norm" It's like that thing drunk people say. "Oh, I drive better when im drunk..." Really... My Brain slows down when I smoke.... Are you for realz cuz damn that's stupid how bout you use some of that brain and do something constructive? Maybe all the bad drama bills problems are Root caused by your addiction. I honestly dont get how people feel its ok to do it. Would you want your doctor operating on your high? Your childrens Teacher lecturing baked? Weed is a mind altering "DRUG" wanna smoke it go to freakin amsterdam. There are enough Retards out there without the help of 70% of the population drugged up.
Alcohol is sold in stores when you're 21 and its worse for you physically and mentally than Marijuana could ever be. Why do you think that is ? Maybe because the government can tax it and make profit off of it. Whereas if Marijuana were to be legalized, anybody with a home and backyard could grow it and sell it from their own home.... hence no profit for the suits. Thats the only reason which the big M hasnt been fully legalized country-wide for casual use.... There has not been one single marijuana related death in the history of humanity.... now lets do a count for the ones caused by alcohol..... you're welcome 🙂
i dont smoke herb and i have no prob with people that do... some of the most succesful people that i know smoke everyday. Justin Timberlake is a grown ass man and he can smoke whatever he wants.... and you as a parent should be responsible and smart enough to do the best that you can with your children. I grew up watching horror movies and watching my parents and familly drink alcohol in front of me and I didnt turn out to be an alcoholic. You need to try to be the best parent that you can be... and teach your young ones the differences between right and wrong. They will have to learn the rest for themselves and they will make mistakes as you probably also did when you all were young. Dont be so close minded about marijuana.... it's not heroin or cocaine. And remember... not everything the government or news networks say is bad for you, is. Open minded people that have good communication with their children usually raise educated, well mannered and kind heart children that often become successful. While the majority of you close minded squares that live your lives according to what you hear on the news of what right and wrong is... without even having done these things yourselves.... end up raising some messed up ass children that had to learn things for themselves because you didn't take enough time to b open and honest with them about things, or forced them to accept things from your perspective which maybe wasn't necessarily how they felt about it. Talk to your kids, be open minded and live your lives..... it's only going to happen once. Heck... smoke a little weed and loosen up...god knows some of you need it 🙂
"Signing" Stevie Wonder songs would be cruel.

"Timberlake do you smoke pot?"
"Absolutely...............What's Pot?"
Hollywood is full of pot smokers. I ran into a prominent music video director from LA while on the train to NYC who said that all the big stars have medical cards. It's just a more accepted part of the culture out there. And I would argue that pot doesn't turn off your thoughts, JT.
The fire pot is responsible for burn with fire gel fuel. Fire pots come with warnings and instructions like as any candle.
Fire Pot
Justin Timberbaked
Don't forget to bring a towel!
The thing which matter is his songs nt what he is doing in his life..

"I smoke to get high because the world is so low" -kid cudi
Yall against hemp are the ones stressing and living a f*#@%? Up life.
While us for it are the ones happy, calm and have a succesful life to enjoy.. YES succesful!
Tommas,I am religuos ok god doesn't f#$K you up cannabis doesn't either it just relaxes you smoking tobacco is way worse
I'm with ya, Justin. The fact that any idiot in this country that reaches the age of 21 can walk into a store and get enough alcohol to literally KILL THEMSELVES, while a harmless drug like weed gets people locked up just for having it.
And yes, it's harmless, don't get your info from Partnership For a Drugfree America or DARE, two programs that were funded at one time by alcohol and cigarette makers LOL
Time to end marijuana prohibition. It only took us 15 years to realize alcohol probition was a failure, why is it taking 30+ to realize it with weed??
You can punish someone if they kill/injure someone while smoking pot (although its pretty unlikely), but to impede the freedom to choose and claim its a danger to life is ridiculous. Should we all not have a pair of scissors becuz someone mite stab someone with them?? No. Until someones life or liberty is violated, that person is free to choose and thus face the consequences of those actions. govt should not impose laws that restrict freedom of choice.
Like His Music. And He And Peyoton Manning Are Hilarious. And I Sound Like A Hypocrite Saying This. Since I Smoked Weed Back In The Day. But Him Pretty Much Saying Smoking Weed Is A Good Thing... Not Cool.
Please tell me some ER stories that involved smoking pot-ONLY. Oh that's ok, don't strain your brain trying to think of one, they don't exist anyways.
So based on the "logic" of the freedom tokers, many of you think it's ok to have your pot anytime and it affects no one. I am sure the majority of you have never seen an up close and personal Emergency Room Trauma that was a result of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. It's not a matter of freedom, it's a matter of impacting you, your family and the innocents around you. By your logic, we should let fire fighters, policemen, doctors, astronauts, nurses, anyone in control of a nuclear weapon all light up because "there's no harm". REALLY PEOPLE?????
i signed up just to let you know how retared you are, and here it goes.........YOUR REEEETARED, ask anyone who smokes and they will tell you that driving high is actually better than sober, i have road rage when im not high, then bam im high and i think, hey..maybe that guy is in a rush and isnt trying to spite me intentionally by cutting me off and let it go and keep with 5 over and live to tell the tell.
Not only is it a gift from Mother Nature, the stuff could create jobs! Hemp makes rope, those panels in your car, clothes, purses, & I've seen (on list of ingred's) seeds in bird seed! If we grew our own, for multiple purposes, well, it's a win win for many! Why buy this "product" from Canada, where we get our processed hemp ? Such a simple thing with many good purposes!!!
Dope sucks.
americans feel good when they get to wag their finger at someone who isnt perfect. glad my great grandpa died protecting the rights of the ignorant. let the guy smoke pot. if your kids look up to him you should cancel the cable and teach them to read a book like the bible then they can look up to god..but skip to the jesus part cuz you dont want them knowing that god killed thousands of people..it is no onder we learned to build WMDs before we learned peace.. after all we learned from our father
Y'all know he likes boys right?
He should be arrested then. Anyone else would be.
He's an idiot for admitting it in public.
Do you think gay dudes get turned on by their own weiners
I wish i had been born a dog so i could lick myself in public without looking like a moron
I'd imagine that if you hang out with the SNL cast and their hipster social circles long enough, weed is bound to happen.
Harris confirmed their split on her official website as expressed in a “Message From Crystal." http://bit.ly/ll7zlg
no wonder he cant keep a girlfriend
yall put up all these stupid post on what u have read. honestly if u stop reading all the bad u can find good things. they can use weed to make paper. to help people with actual problems (why they have medical) and it doesn't make u stupid. go to any college including harvard yale and even the small ones and weed is everywhere!
over 60% of med students smoke it. its a relaxer just like alcohol going to the spa and all that other bs. its what some people choose to do and if u don't then fine but don't critize and call people stupid for it. ya there are the ppl who go overboard but there a millions of americans who smoke, have families, are successful and are living their lives!
some people act like weed is such a big and bad deal! its weed.. as long as he pays for it and takes care of his business and isn't hurting anyone then its not a problem! you would truly be surprised at how many successful and unsuccessful people n this world actually smoke or have smoked before. weed doesn't always ruin ur life- u just have to be smart enough and not let it control your life which obviously he hasn't done!
Are we supposed to care about this hack?
Wow! After reading all the posts here, I think I need to turn my brain off for awhile!
ok.. well Thank God I can finally get this off my chest.. I Can't stand his fake, 2 step moving azz, .. this little interview of his is nothing more than a publicity stunt, when is the album coming out JT?? and to all those lackluster parents that think he's now a bad role model, You are the only bad role model in the picture, to think that someone else "outside" your home should be parenting your kids is ludacris
Why do I get the feeling he is just saying this so he looks cool. Anyways I heard him say this before I guess he figured it didn't stick the first time so I must repeat it again. I still don't think he's cool and he should really stop acting honestly have you guys read the playboy interview? I read the excerpts online and they compared him to Frank Sinatra and Young Elvis I wanted to punch the writer.
People who have to resort to doing drugs to deal with life have a problem and need to seek help.
well, i liked this dude, until now. . another loser pothead
What JT does in his personal life is nobodys business. It shouldnt even be up here for discussion. But music made him what he is today so if I were him I wouldnt be pushing it away like he is. That could hurt him later on down the line. If he does smoke weed he really shouldnt be advertising it this way. Alot of kids look up to him and the like. Its not a very good example for them. Other than that really noone should care. Its his life to destroy if he so chooses. Should always be freedom of choice!
I got nothing but respect for that. Least he's honest & not getting blasted about it.
Wow I guess its cool now that some of Hollywood to openly admit to smoking marijuana. Sorry for all you kids living in this new generation but yet again it was a different Hollywood back then. It was much classier.
Jack Nicholson, Dennis Hopper, Al Pacino.... just some that have been known to b daily herb smokers for decades. They're not from my generation.... am assuming they're from yours though. They turned out pretty successful..... yeah and Hollywood has never been classy to begin with.
Tommas,
For real dude I happen to be religuous and I do not believe god our heavenly father fu–s up our future I don't know what has gotten into your head but please get it out
Chris in WI I swear we have dated before.
Lol, is that your profile over on alcoholics anonymous forum, saftgek? Did someone have a wittle too much fun and now nobody else can? I thought you were faking this to pi$$ people off for kicks, but from the volume of inane rightård gibberish that came up on googlr, you're one sad little man or a very devoted faker.
We still have the crack rock?!
The plant was created for good reasons. It is to be used to help with many conditions we as humans endure on a daily basis. As far as a "bad:" drug, I would say liquer is responsible for more deaths every minute than anything. It just happens to be Legal and always available. Pot has many medical positives to help many people. As with anything, we should use care.
I do not believe any government including my own has the right to tell me what I can or can not ingest. I believe in self government.
Now pop singers are admitting to smoking pot....ohhhh nooooooooooo
Duh, I'd like to make a comment but too many blunts have made me too paranoid to speak my mind. Seems I used to have one...
Does he wear those stupid hipster glasses while he smokes?
Shame on you Justin* bcuz of people like u!! all da killing on in Mex. You silly stoned goose!!.
People need to quit making such a big deal about smoking pot! I have my medical marijuana card and love that I have something to help my chronic back pain without all the side affects that that come with the pills the doctors hand out like candy. And what's wrong with feeling relaxed and happy while healing!? I say enjoy yourself JT and smoke up, it's 4:20 somewhere.
Any bets which way jt swings? lol
Saftgek,
It's people like you that I hope get punched in the face on a daily basis. You're annoying, condescending and judgemental. You're bringing nothing to the table here. If you were alive 500 years ago, you'd be spouting the same conservative rhetoric to anyone who dared question the "fact" that the earth was flat.
We think oprah should come out like jt and lance
Way to go JT! Marijuana is the safest drug with actual benefits for the user as opposed to alcohol which is dangerous, causes addiction, birth defects, and affects literally every organ in the body. Groups are organizing all over the country to speak their minds on reforming pot laws. I drew up a very cool poster featuring Uncle Willie for the cause which you can check out on my artist’s blog at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/01/vote-teapot-2011.html Drop in and let me know what you think!
Sometimes me and jt try on beyonces high heels and dresses and dance after a joint
gonja. it turns users into mental people...
BS, the 'War on Drugs' simply allows control-freaks the ability to mess with other people's lives, for NO benefit.
Weed is bad.Way 2 go JT
Alright people move along nothing to see here
LOOSER!
Stop believing the lies,they were told to the poor to keep them poor.this plant does everything and scientists are baffled by it. study after study,test after test yet nuthin.so what do people do with something they cant understand ? Fear it.what do most people do when their scared? they lie.
Wait, is Timberlake deaf?
The government hasn't found a way to tax drugs yet...if the government can't make money from it, then they think you shouldn't either, hence why drugs are illegal...they could care less if it's bad for you or not.
He used to annoy me, but the more I hear from him, the more I like him. Stand up for yourself, and don't let the man BS on you the 'terrors' of marijuana.....it's not harmless, but it is a whole lot LESS harmful than alcohol or tobacco.
LEGALIZE!!!
So, with his comment re: "pot," Mr. Timberlake has declared his self-serving, anti-social, criminal orientation. This, sadly, is very common in our country. Select segments of our society pick and choose which laws they do or do not respect and follow.
Fortunately, from a personal perspective, I know little to nothing about Mr. Timberlake or his purported career. I suspect, however, he probably has an influence on certain elements in our country that will use his endorsement of dope as support for justifying their own decadence.
Such mores are, in part, the cause for the degradation of our society. More's The Pity!
"Select segments of our society pick and choose which laws they do or do not respect and follow."
Yeah, we call those people the rich and powerful.
It is disappointing that the opinions and commentary you have displayed here are negative and insulting to many people reading this thread. You are obviously an intelligent person and have legitimate feeling and concerns regarding this issue. I am actually in agreement with you with regards to legality, health, and social impacts of drug use. I would love to see you switch gears and educate some of the young people here by speaking to them with kindness and understanding... you can catch a lot more flies with honey... Best Regards. J
Did you know, the men that founded this very country broke the law? Many wars have been won (or at least given a heavy advantage) thanks to things that were against the law. Rosa Park sitting down because she was tired and didn't want to walk to the back of the bus, was against the law. There are a lot of unjust laws on the books nationally, and on the state and local level. Just because something is a law does NOT make it right.
now everybody can agree to legalize drugs and tax the hell out of em. then we can get out of debt. why have all the cartels keep all the money. such an easy answer for a bunch of stupid asses in congress.
i'm glad he's not releasing any more "music"...the best part of his "singing" career was when he was pelted with garbage by Rolling Stones fans in an ill-fated attempt to open a concert for them...let music be made by genuine artists, he can go play on american idol.
Nothin wrong with smokin a little herb peeps! As a matter of fact, I smoke almost every day. I drive a truck coast to coast every week and a little smoke to toke makes the miles just fly by. Smokin grass haulin ass baybee!
Thank you, Mr. Mental Deficient, for your commentary. Nice (NOT) to know a commercial truck driver wilfully endangers lives on a regular basis through their out-of-control lifestyle.
...and thank YOU miss Saftgek, for bringing ignorant back. Woo! Stay..err.. what's the opposite of awesome?
@jt,
Craptacular?
No wonder he's so good on SNL
I actually have respect for him now.
Attaboy! Respect for a doper is a wonderful attribute to demonstrate and declare, isn't it!?!
You are part of the problem!
No Saft, it is idiots like you who are incapable of dealing with your own life, so you have to try and control others.
Pot is safer than alcohol or tobacco, PERIOD. It is less addictive than caffeine, and less deadly than water or aspirin.
Take your massive case of ignorance elsewhere, potheads are educated, Narco-Nazis are useless idiots, who only want to spend the public's money pursuing the impossible.
Attaboy, Saftgek! You conjugated all of that correctly! That means you graduate! Now, onto the third grade.
I know there are a lot of supporters and few detractors for pot use. I am a suporter, I have been smoking for 10 years now. I have a good job, great home and social life. I have taught myself german, html and php web languages. So its not much of a motivation killer at all.
I have never used anything 'hard' no coke no meth no heroin. So not much of a gateway drug there. The majority of people the first drug they use is tobacco, caffeine or booze. Not one is the recorded history of the human species has anyone every overdoesed on weed.
Using or not comes down to a human rights issue, because ultimately you are controling how your mind functions, no goverment should be able to regulate that and that is exactly why they have not been able to stop it. The only thing the war on drugs has accomplished is making hard drugs like heroin more pure and cheaper to but than it was 30 years ago.
Drug users are criminals – Plain and Simple! Please do not attempt to whitewash your poor life choices!
In defense of Richard, Saftek used to be his pot dealer, then Rich started buying in bulk from the dispensary. It only makes sense that Saftie would come onto CNN and post his frustration. Sorry Saftie, keep smoking that stress.
I wish I had stopped at just weed. Now I'm pushing up daisies.
A little weed is good for the system.
I can see he is concerned about the thousands of Mexicans killed to get him his weed.
If pot were legal mexican cartels would need a new line of work. Maybe making more nike's
Not exactly you mean china ,,, we would just make more cocaine for you crakers
Guess he wasn't kidding with the "pass to the left and you sail to the right" line.
He also smokes poles, daily.
Great, glorify weed. I don't care what anyone says or how popular it is. I don't care if it's legalized either but I'm so tired of hearing potheads worship weed. It makes people lazy and stupid. Point blank. I don't advocate alcohol either. I drink, smoke cigarettes, and have smoked weed in the past regularly. I have to say they are all worthless, stupid things. I wouldn't brag about any of em. Maybe fun every now and then but extremely wasteful and people should be more ashamed than boastful. Justin Timberlake shouldn't be bragging about it to the world. Get some class.
I agree. You must only glorify your absolute ruler Zod! Put the bong down and kneel before Zod!
i'm sure potheads don't worship weed, and yes, it gets annoying when it's being bragged about when people should focus on its medicinal qualities but it would be great if you were more open-minded on its positive effects towards others instead of denying it of anything at all.
Guess what potheads are tired of hearing...? I'll give you as many guesses as you need CMP7533. Got it? No? It's hearing D-bags like you talking about something that they obviously know nothing about. If smoking pot doesn't do anything for you, or if your chemically imbalanced brain can't comprehend the positive effects of pot for cancer and glaucoma patients, at least have your brain tell your mouth to shut up and your fingers to stop typing. The rest of us NEED to smoke pot, just to try and deal with jagaloons like you.
Justin Timberlake will bow down before me. I swear it! Both him and then someday his heirs!
Meh. I prefer shrooms myself.
Question; which is worse an alcoholic or person who smokes[not cannabis] omm... lets see an alcoholic liver failure etc.a smoker worse lung cancer etc and cannibis a herb used for medicinal purposes and for getting high.
Your post failed to reference how the use of "pot" amplifies cancer risk x5. Good One!
And your post failed to link to any believable studies backing your ludicrous claims. Pot does NOT cause cancer. Feel free to prove me wrong with DATA.
In case you were curious, oh ignorant Rosita, there has never been a single solitary death linked outright to the usage of pot. Not one. Ever. In all of history.
Is this really a shock? I'm sure 87% (a random number im throwing out there) of the Canadians smoke pot. It's "illegal" here, but barely enforced and with good reason. Pot is safer than cigarettes, it's been proven. Ban cigarettes and legalize pot, the amount of money to be made by a government, would be amazing. It could get rid of a lot of debt in the US, that's for sure!
I'm so tired of hearing that too. It hasn't been proven, it can't be proven because pot isn't regulated. All these people are getting drugs from God only knows where laced with God only knows what and grown in whatever, no one knows. It hasn't been legal long enough to study the health effects in time compared to a cigarette smoker and many potheads smoke cigarettes as well, or vice versa. Smoking anything is not healthy. Have you ever seen a resinated bowl? Where do you think that yellow stain goes in your body? Lungs. Also, morphine has medicinal purposes but does that make it ok to dose up on daily? Obviously not....
Something has to be legal for X number of years before anyone can study effects? That might be the dumbest thing I've heard in a long time...and you're sober?
The methane eminating from your post's BS has caused the meter to spike and break. Sad for you, to be so misinformed of fact.
Obviously you are too dumb to understand. If it's not legal, there's no regulation of what's in it. Nothing to say what chemicals are entering your body or not, no stability of potency or not, and therefore the different people you study will have different variations of chemicals depending what's in the weed smokers being studied. I have yet to see a scientific study showing pot does not cause cancer or any risks. Show me that and then call me dumb, stoner. Or just smoke up and be stupid.
it would be great if you can back up your anti-pot rant with actual facts, CMP7533. i'm just very skeptical of why pot is bad and opinions just aren't cutting it.
by the way, smoking anything isn't healthy, but there are other ways of obtaining THC. for example: vapor, edibles, pills, etc.
Nowadays it's more like who doesn't, rather then who does.
If you've never seen Reefer Madness, check it out. It's a scream. It was supposed to be a "scared straight" movie for kids in the fifties.
Try 1936
I wanna get chocolate wasted!!!
There are people who can't handle smoking weed and some who can.Just like alcohol.
Weed should be legalized. This economy would be better off it was legal to buy instead of the gov wanting the money from it they want drugs off the street so why not just let all whom want weed get it and be free from all this nonsence. Smoking weed doesn`t make you gay.
How about stringently enforcing and reinforcing laws related to illicit drug use? Anyone manufacturing and/or distributing? Make it a capital crime. Anyone using? One time provision to get off the dope. Next offense? Incarceration at hard labor.
To everyone putting down pot. Y"all need a reality check. Should teenagers be using it? Hell no. But adults? Yes. I have a bad left ankle and lower back and pot helps me out with the pain before I go to bed.
I think that if people against marijuana pulled their heads out of their butts for a minute, they'd realize that it's not the big bad drug the government doesn't even make it out to be nowadays (at least our president doesn't care).
Not to mention that prescription pills are faaaar worse for the body than weed.
My husband had the choice between Oxycontin and Medical Marijuana for his problem. I'm sure you can guess what he chose.
Oh, and I'm sure that most pot smokers will agree that immature brains should not be consuming it in any way.
If I was that famous I would smoke pot too....oh wait I'm not famous and do anyway.
JT,needs to get high on God,instead of getting High on pot or any other drugs. JoAnn
"high on god", that is actually a very interesting statement. The pathways activated by religious experiences are the same as magic mushrooms... God F#$Ks you up a lot more than cannabis.
Oh, and the reason that Marijuana is commonly known as a "gateway drug" is because people have to go to drug dealers to get it. Uh, hello? You think a drug dealer is just going to sell weed and not try to push anything else? Yeah right.
If marijuana were legalized, it wouldn't be a gateway drug anymore, and people could just enjoy the one drug that isn't going to kill them (cigarettes and alcohol included).
The fact he won't be "singing" anytime soon is awesome. Best thing he ever said! I've always hated his "music," hated his group, hate him, hope he dies of AIDS and is buried at sea alongside bin laden.
"Cannabinoid Administration Halts Disease Progression, Decreases Mortality In Primate Version of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)" if he does get aids guess he should keep at it!
you hope he dies of aids? That statement alone will bring you all the misfortune you deserve. Sick.
Justin, you should drive on up to Neptune on a gilded gypsy horse with fire wings and slide down a thousand rainbows into a treasure chest of rain while smiling at your purple lady while she dances on a floating smiling mushroom of flowers and listen to me play my magical fantastic wonderful dripping notes of gods making love and wonderful jello horizon music.
Possession is legal in CA with a Drs recommendation. And weed isn't the reason people are out of work.
Jt is blessed with many gifts! Its good he is taking a break from relationships right now. He picks very controlling women who must drain him. I think cameron and jessica were just too greedy for his attention and sucked his life force right out of him. Stay single for a couple of years!
if you don't understand EXACTLY where he is coming from, it indicates that your mind isn't really in gear when you are sober....
lol, big surprise. People with that much going on usually have to have something to take the edge off. It's no worse than your mom tipping back a glass of wine at night. Totally know where he's coming from with the whole racing mind problem, sometimes you have to turn it off or else nothing gets done! Important things, like sleeping and eating.
Drinking wine is not a crime – using dope is a crime. Kind of an important distinction that could/should have been included in your post – don't you think?

Slavery was legal once, does that mean you would have supported it? Some laws are moraly wrong and locking people up for smoking Cannabis is a tragic waste of time, law enforcement, money, and criminal in that it takes freedom from otherwise law abiding individuals (they stop paying taxes and YOU start footing the $30,000 a year to house them in jail).
Also, you cannot say a point made, as to why a drug should be legal, is invalid because it is illegal. That's drug czar logic.
dope is for dopes. and gay doodoo touchers. and fudjjepakers.
ONLY DOPES SMOKE DOPE ! plus i heard that dope makes you gaaay and most dope makers put doodoo in it.
oh, well...then it MUST be true, right?
Good grief, people! Snoop smoked enough chiba to create a worldwide panic due to a shortage and he didnt catch this much hell. Rule number one: dont believe everything our government tells you. Rule number two: dont believe anything our government tells you. The war on drugs isn't even a skirmish at this point. Fire up some doobage and chill already. Its in brians underpants.
Milk is the gateway fluid
To each their own. I don't sell it to them nor buy it for them so it really doesn't concern me
True sone people are better high but then again some children would have been better swallowed
1st-go cheech! Wow who cares if u smoke! Pot doesnt kill anybody like alcohol does!
Unadulterated Horse Pucky!
Yeah and you have a great career and street sweeper ahead of you too.
It is females and not drugs that sap a mans power. When they suckle on the root, your energy and intelligence are diminished.
I believe DAN is correct on this. The Yogis know this.
Marijuana is good for the mind body and soul
Why don't you go hang out on the border with Mexico and see how good for the mind body and soul it is?
Timberlake. Who cares? Another leftist Hollywood type with an inflated ego and no morals.
Hey Blake, shouldn't you be outside making sure kids don't walk on your lawn? Or kicking puppy's?
Heh, you are making an ass of yourself with statements like that. First off do we even know which way JT swings when it comes to his political leanings... this article doesn't mentjion it so it seems to be projection on your part... and projection is the darkroom in which you develop your fears. And JT doesn't appear to have an inflated ego, at least from his replies in this article... so more projections. I know many moral and ethical people who smoke weed. Smoking weed doesnot preclude one from having their own moral code. This mindset is just as moronic as many christians believing atheists and agnostics can't have their own moral code. Mankind started developing moral codes long before the start of jewish and christian religions. Moral codes most likely started being codified around the bronze age when zorastrianisms concepts of dualism became widespread. Try educating yourself before letting your unstoned mindless chatter clutter the internet.
Pot has been the ruin of many talented people. It sucks all your lifes blood out of you. Maybe it won't kill you but its destructive in a more insidious way.
Moderation is the key. If one has an addictive personality, it's probably best to abstain from weed and all other mood altering substances.
You mean just like....oh I don't know......alcohol?!?!?
So what you are saying is, just in case you can handle cannabis consumption responsibly, we are going to arrest you just to make sure every pothead's life is ruined equally? Can you say "intolerance"?
What kind of sense does that make? You are saying nobody should choose to exercise their liberty and use Cannabis because a few might abuse it? Let me quote a famous dead guy here:
It will be found an unjust and unwise jealousy to deprive a man of his natural liberty upon the supposition he may abuse it.
George Washington
The US has lost it's way, it's not about getting YOUR way, it's about nobody having their rights trampled. You don't have the right to tell someone else what drugs they can or cannot take. Period. If you think you do, you are wrong.~
Totally agree. It kills drive and motivation. Lazy people is not what the country needs now.
cmp7533 that is YOUR choice. You don't have the right to impose your opinion on anyone else in a FREE country.
THIS is what you guys don't understand:
Freedom = CHOICES
If you don't like abortion, don't do it, but it's not your choice when it's someone else's baby. If you don't like Muslims then don't go to a moque but you can't tell them not to build one where they want. It doesn't work that way.
Bigot: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially: one who regards or treats the members of a group with hatred and intolerance.
I hate to call people names but you need to evaluate yourself as a human and see you are not tolerant of your fellow man.
Oh puh-leeze... Sucks the life out of you? Going for a little hyperbole there?
Hey Jay, I have a doctorate, make 6 figures and am a daily smoker. Anything can be dangerous. Too much food, booze etc. I'm tired of being considered "less" by close-minded conservatives. Oh, gotta go my next patient is here...
O.K., Josh – so, you are an educated criminal. Wonderful (NOT) distinction!
Chris in WI,
Haha, I didn't say it should be illegal, I said it makes you stupid and lazy. That's MY freedom of speech. I don't care if it's legal or not. If someone wants to be stupid and lazy, that's their choice. I just wouldn't go around bragging how I smoke pot, just like I wouldn't go bragging about how I get drunk or smoke cigarettes. I drink and smoke cigs and used to be a pothead. Pot is a life waster. Alcohol ruins lives, and cigarettes kill you. My point is, yeah freedom, great, legalize it, but don't brag about being a pothead, makes you look like an idiot and it's a bad message for kids growing up thinking stuff like that is cool when they are impressionable by pop stars. I smoked pot as a teenager throughout high school and I wish I never did. Set me back in my later years. My message is simply that bragging about smoking pot makes you sound lazy and classless.
You are completely and totally 100% wrong, Jay. Now get over here and wash my dog.
Just like alcohol, y'know like the bottle you had last night...and hey why not dilute another poison and drink it too...
He lives in CA where its medical. Hopefully this can shed some light for the rest of the country. Is JT evil? No!
If MJ were made legal tomorrow ...we would see a drastic decline of drug use. Drugs don't destroy families...an evil government ruins families. Do you really think our involvement in afghan has anything to do with what the t.v. Tells you? It has to do with controlling the poppy crops. The war on drugs is a crock of crap , shoved down our throats all day everyday. Now they can kick in your door if cops smell mj. So much for the 4th amendment. These wars are making us all slaves. Maybe if everyone had alittle compassion...alittle understanding...and the ability to see the truth. Drugs would not be a problem. Our government....brings in to this country 80% of the drugs on the streets and in our pharmacies. The more we bow down to this evil government..the more they will rise...until its to late and we all have microchips in our hands and in our heads....its coming.
Your an ignorant s.o.b. Shut the hell up.
By the time they start chipping us you'll be able to jack-in to a heavily augmented cyborg body and effotlessly kick the heads off stormtroopers. Things tend to balance out.
Abba-zaba...you my only friend.
LoL. Priceless. I didn't know the horse was a diabetic.
THAT sir was the funniest thing I heard all day. I miss Chappelle...
Seen a pic w/ him wearing a shirt with a leaf on it and it said "ship it by the bale". I think he chiefs a little....eh?
Yeah right. If he were to smoke some of this Humboldt County, he'd be curled up in a fetal position accusing folks of spiking his weed and begging for his mommy. Lightweight.
it's not the seventies any more.
there was a time when California and Amsterdam really did have the market cornered, but today it's just not the case. don't get me wrong, both places still have great pot, but now, with the advent of medical marijuana laws, not only are more people growing it, more people know how to grow it. I've seen incredible grass in every corner of the US and, hands down, the BEST I've had was from Durango, CO and a close second was purchased in NYC, though, to be fair, I've no idea where that was grown.
the point is, if you think the only people who know great pot are northern California hippies, you are a northern California hippy. I'm confident that Mr. Timberlake has access to some of the finest weed available because it's not about location, it's about money.
btw, a good Jack Herer is tough to beat.
Durango CO. ...You know I have heard about the Durango from a few others. Definitely worth looking into getting some seeds.
"Does Justin Timberlake smoke pot? 'absolutely' " Surprise! Ranks right up there with the Ricky Martin coming out article.
And people wonder why the drug war is constantly getting defeated in the US. I hope Mr Timberlake knows what the real cost of drugs are... Shattered families, ruined lives (not everyone is rich enough to buy a good lawyer).
On the other hand, if drugs were legal like alcohol and tobacco, we'd at least see some revenue and not have people in jail eating up tax dollars.
Oh, Puleeeze!!!! It's pot, not heroin or meth.
Chill.
Victor, pot isn't ruining lives, the legal system is....
Pot has ruined more futures than meth or coke, I suspect. Why? Because it
feels so good not to think, just as he says. Problem is...not thinking doesn't get you
through school, doesn't help you succeed in anything. We have a whole generation
that is just "chilling" through life with any accomplishments. Some of them go one
to harder drugs, sadder futures. I agree with Victor.
What a jerk, Timberlake.
Carla, you might as well be saying "all black people..."....the reality is, all people are individuals....there are many "kids" that smoke weed everyday while maintaining a 4.0 in school and are active in extra curricular activities. There are individuals that suck at school and are going to fail regardless of whether they smoke weed. There are individuals that don't smoke weed and have bad grades and are introverted to a point that they are either in class or on some online game when they aren't sleeping....basically, you attribute causality when there isn't even a high correlation...
@Carla, not everyone stops thinking when using cannabis. You must know some real slackers. Some of the most intelligent and successful people I know are cannabis users. To them, it beats drinking. And that old wive's tale about it being a gateway to other drugs is no more true of cannabis than it is of nicotine, caffeine, or alcohol. That's the same unproven propaganda they used to feed our frightened parents back in the 60s.
actually, a lot of it is the same BS they made up in the mid 30's in Reefer Madness...it's all lies....and just like religion, when stupid parents keep their kids ignorant of reality, their kids end up believing the BS too...
Carla, you trollin'?
I have a saying I like to tell people who assume that everyone who smokes pot is stupid. "If you are stupid after smoking pot, you were stupid before, too."
I know A LOT of intelligent people who enjoy marijuana and have for years.
Heh, I found that smoking weed helped me do math much more accurately... helped focus my thinking whereas when sober I found my mind racing. I do know when I was a teen, I didn't listen to my parents when they said not to smoke pot as they drank and smoked all the time I grew up... and even at that age it was obvious which was the lesser of three evils and that was weed... if anything their and other adults hypocrisy led me to finally experimenting with weed. I have also read and talked to many musicians and artists who find smoking weed conducive to their creativity. I figure eventually they will have to decriminalize it since our prisons are over flowing. Quite sad that the USA has the largest prison population in the world... odd in the land of the free. To bad the social conservatives are not true conservatives or we wouldn't have to deal with them legislating morality.
Cry me a river.
Victor, They tried that "revenue" argument recently in Maine, when they tried to legalize pot entirely (note: Maine already has a medical use MJ law). My counter-argument is that legalization won't raise a single penny in revenue, and here's why; criminals are making money selling it illegally now, so why would they be willing to cut into their profit margin by paying tax on it. The only thing legalization would do is keep the guy driving down the road with a truckload of pot from being arrested for possession and/or transportation. Dealers will continue to sell it in sleazy back alleys, and squeeze out every penny of profit they can. In California, the MJ usage requirements are so lax, anyone can get a prescription for any excuse in the book; perhaps they should start prosecuting the doctors for issuing bogus prescriptions. They could start by stripping the doctor's of their medical license when they issue a bogus prescription; and they could require that anyone claiming a "medical need" for marijuana must come before a special board of inquiry, justify their actual medical need for the medication, and submit to drug testing for any other substances. If they are found with other (illegal) drugs in their system (i.e. cocaine, heroin, etc.) they are automatically disqualified for getting medical MJ.
Hey where the bud at my hair needs sum Asap.
Even a fake Justin makes no sense. See what I have to put up with? No wonder he makes me sick.
End the war on drugs. Ron Paul 2012
Justin what in the world is wrong with you???? Obviously you don't have kids; if you did, you wouldn't want someone like you making that statement in a publication. It's difficult enough to raise children in this age, and people like you just add problems and for NO GOOD REASON! SHAME ON YOU!
hahaha, your kids read alot of playboy? and it sounds like you suck as a parent if they are. get that stick out of your butt
LL, I couldn't have said it any better. Shame on you Justin for glorifying any type of drugs. I just took you off my IPod.
why do bad parents always want everyone else to change how they are? the PARENTS are the ONLY people responsible for their children....no one else has to adjust their lives for you to have kids....if you feel that they do, then they should get a say in whether you have kids.
LL and Jeanne, what if he said he enjoys an occasional drink or glass of beer? Would that be okay?
Its OK, just put your kids back in front of the tube watching alcohol commercials.
I'm assuming the above parents never use aspirin. For that matter, have you ever had a beer in front of your kids. In addition, where does he live? I believe the answer is California, and in CA with a doctor's note you can legally smoke. Close minded uptight ignorant parents...
Oh come on..to remove from the Ipod?? that's ridiculous!!! Plus you're kids have probably already been exposed to it, and need to learn from the parents what is right or wrong.
I have 2 kids and I smoke pot. I am a great father who plays with my kids from the time I get home from work til bed time. I read my kids a story and tuck them in at night. After the kids are sleeping, instead of cracking a cold one, I smoke some pot. I'll do the laundry, do the dishes, clean up my kids mess... all while high. Once the chores are done I'll go to bed or play some video games. I guess I'm a terrible role model.
LL you need to chill out. Let the man enjoy some of his good years. He's going to have plenty of time to worry about kids, marriage etc. It is scientifically proven that men mature at a much slower rate than women so technically, T man is only about 21 years old. So, what's wrong with using a little pot as long as he doesnt inhale????
You're an idiot. Nuff said.
I know exacly what LL means Justin is a role model and influences young people. Some people like LL don't know how to raise children so It's time to blame others for your failures. If any of LL kids ever chance living life to the fullest and experience the joy of being blazed, then she can blame JT and playboy magazine.
couldnt agree more with having to make your brain stop thinking... most of us..cant catch a break with our problems running through our heads all day every day.. even so it happens from the second your eyes open in the morning..
Hey Justin, you wanna get high?
At least he's honest !
Letz get highhhh
Hmmm...I think I'll go turn my brain off! Anyone care to join me?
Can't wait til payday! Toked up the last bud of some tasty Platinum Sour Diesel. Mmmmmmm.
PS To all you Mother Theresa types...no I'm not broke, the rest is for typical financial obligations. Only crackheads spend their last dime on a high!
He sounds like a really honest, insightful person. Not because he smokes pot.
You guys never invited me to your pot parties...
Son, don't you know that's illegal!
Folks, you are all forgetting 1 thing he. He lives in CA. I'm sure he has a medical marijuana card, so technically what he is doing isn't illegal. You can get a card in CA for headaches, so I don't think he's too worried about it.
If he was on SNL more often, I'd watch that show more often. He's the only person that's made that show funny in the last 10 years.
Fred Armison is pretty hilarious as Obama, Kadafi, Bernanke and many others. Kristin Wiig is amazing, too. However, Justin is ridiculously talented and has amazing comedy timing. I've watched the last SNL episode with Justin in it about 4 times. Mega talented.
Dude, I'd be smoking too, with his money, holy cow that would be cool.
Why is it celebrities get to be nonchalant about smoking bud but us normal people have to hide it for fear of losing our jobs or being arrested?
No kidding! They can go wherever they want high as a kite, and nobody cares, it actually makes them cooler. I get caught being high, they try throwing me in jail for 4 years
if he gets caught "in possession" which is the only aspect that is illegal, he can get arrested just like anyone else....the big difference is that he doesn't really have a "boss" that will fire him for drug use.
It depends on where you live, for one. The laws vary.
Aside from that, we're their boss. If people really had a problem with him smoking pot, he would probably lose money. But how much of his target audience is going to care that he smokes pot?
"fear of losing jobs"... nail on the head. He will still have a career even with a dozen possession charges on his record.
well, it's because you choose jobs that have an anti-drug policy if that's the case. He chose one that doesn't. There are plenty of non-celebrity jobs that don't discriminate against marijuana smokers. Go apply at your local head shop – I doubt they drug test their employees.
I work with a bunch of construction workers that smoke 4 freakin times a day!
pfffffft . . . AHHHH!
pass it along.
ppfffffffffffffffffffffffttttt! cough cough hack hack, thanks
I smoked pot in high school hoping that it would slow down my overactive brain. Instead, all it did was make me more introverted and think stupider thoughts at a much, much faster rate. It pretty much had the exact opposite effect I wanted. I know a handful of successful habitual pot smokers, and a whole lot that aren't meeting their potential. Different strokes for different folks, you gotta know yourself and what works for you, I suppose.
you prolly have A.D.D., like I do. Weed makes it where I can NOT shut off my brain. A.D.D. is a chemical disorder in the brain and drugs will affect those with it differently (along with a bunch of other chemical disorders).
There are two primary kinds of pot...indica and sativa. You should have tried Indica...it has more of a body effect. Sativa jacks up the thought processes.
You have to continue to smoke & do things everywhere until being high is a normal state of mind... I have ADD & depression & I started smoking on a daily basis for the insomnia affects of Celexa & adderall (33, now 38)... At first, you do feel intraverted & quiet but you have to be confident & strong until your comfortable... I find without it, I am more lazy and less productive... The big thing is... When you have a job to do & you look at it & all you can think about is... "Man this is gonna take forever to finish... " I find these jobs so much easier to accomplish because all I think about is the next task & block out any negative influences coming from my conscience. I find this helps a lot with games like Golf & Billards... You block out the negative thoughts while you only concentrate on your next shot.
Hey guys, why aren't you returning my phone calls?
Joey, you're needed on the set. We're filming the new season of Family Feud soon.
Probably because you coudnt win on DWTS and your show about the singing bee bummed.
Good for him!
He looks totally lit in that pic. Wouldn't shock me if the next words out of his mouth after it was taken were, "Man, we should totally go get some mallomars."
Can you still get Mallomars? I haven't seen them on grocery store shelves in years.
They're seasonal apparently(oct-apr), as weird as that sounds.
You can order them online too.
dang, now i totally want some mallomars.
Let's totally go get some!
Pot ruined my life now all I do is lame MTV dance shows. Thanks Justin. Lets do another album guy please I need the cash.
No stems, no seeds that you don't need
Acapulco gold is badassed weed
Maybe he could recreat Sister Mary Elephant while he's smokin the weed. That would be hilarious.
Mmmmm...
Oooooh noooooo!
Timberlake also smokes old men.
It's such hypocrisy weed is illegal. I really hate the fact that every night drunks can wheel themselves to the local store/bars and tank themselves up, drive home, beat their wives - and its still legal! Who the heck ever behaves that way high? No one! It's illegal because it gives police more of a reason to bust brown people and throw their butts in jail. We've turned our prisons into a some kind of job production infrastructure - its a freaking business now...which is why weed will stay illegal. It's too lucrative for local police, ATF, DEA, and whatever other acronym you wanna add to the bunch, to farm the local communities for their cash-crop marijuana convictions. By busting HARMLESS and otherwise LAW OBIDING marijuana smokers – they bring in a lot of money. IE: States receive gov. subsidies based on prison population numbers. The more people a state can arrest and hold in prison – the more federal money they get – per person. This country makes me ill -
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.Nooooooooooooooooooooeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
