Justin Timberlake: 'Idol' champ 'can't carry a tune in a bucket'

as if he can....

Justin Timberlake says "American Idol" puts too much pressure on new artists.

What Is This?

NEW YORK (AP) -- Justin Timberlake backtracked from criticism of "American Idol" winner Taylor Hicks after telling Fashion Rocks magazine the 29-year-old soul singer "can't carry a tune in a bucket."

"I have a strange relationship with that show," Timberlake tells the magazine in an interview. "I despise it, and yet I'm completely fascinated."

"The guy who won -- people think he looks so normal, and he's so sweet, and he's so earnest, but he can't carry a tune in a bucket. Do you realize how much pressure it is to put on somebody all of a sudden?"

Timberlake, a member of boy band 'N Sync who is now pursuing a solo career, also said: "If he has any skeletons whatsoever; if, God forbid, he's gay, and all these people in Mississippi who voted for him are like, 'Oh, my God, I voted for a queer!' It's just too much pressure."

Liz Morentin, a representative for Hicks' record label, RCA, declined to comment Thursday.

Ken Sunshine, Timberlake's representative, said the 25-year-old singer's comments "were taken completely out of context."

"He has tremendous affection for Taylor Hicks' success," Sunshine told The Associated Press on Thursday. "He would never say anything that personal about somebody he's never met. He only wishes him the best."

Timberlake's second solo album, "FutureSex/LoveSounds," is set for release September 12. "Sexyback," his first single from the CD, began playing on U.S. radio outlets last month.

"I wanted (the album) to look to a time when everything was really sexy," he says. "Maybe everybody was coked up, but who cares? It was hot. It was all about sex."

For some reason the youth of today insist on calling anyone they don't like gay. Never worked that one out myself.

Correct.

Us older guys are secure with our sexuality, as we have actually had sex with women, while the youngsters haven't. It makes them feel better to call people homos as they are all still virgins.

Taylor Hicks is a homosexual. All you had to do was see how excited he gets when seacrest interviews him, he squirms like a woman, and he just acts like a faggot. Thats all.

They should take all those POS losers who went on American Idol and set them on fire.

American Idol is ****.Pure garbage! I wouldn't consider any of the winners "musicians" or "artist". Anytime you are told what to wear,how to talk,what to sing and how to sing it. you are an impostor. These losers are nothing more than karaoke wannabes.

The fact I know the name Clay Aiken ,is enough to make me want to kill myself.

Timberlake is correct. Any real artist would mock these losers. The only thing worse than the contestants themselves? The IDIOTS who call in @ $2.99 a pop to vote for their favorite reject that week.
