As of February 2024, Justin Timberlake’s net worth is estimated to be $250 Million, making him one of the richest singers in the world.
Justin Timberlake is an American singer, producer, songwriter, and actor, from Memphis, Tennessee.
When he was younger, he starred in The Mickey Mouse Club, and later became a member of the group ‘NSYNC’.
The success of NSYNC paved the way for Timberlake to venture into the world of solo artists; which led to him winning many awards and also featuring in various movie roles.
Early Life
Justin Timberlake was born on the 31st of January, 1981, in Memphis, Tennessee.
He grew up in Shelby Forest and had three half-siblings, Jonathan, Stephen, and Laura Katherine (now deceased).
Timberlake was brought up in a very music-orientated family, and his grandfather introduced him to music from many stars growing up; including the likes of Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson.
When he was just 11 years old, Justin appeared on the TV show Star Search; and in 1993, he starred in The Mickey Mouse Club, alongside the likes of Britney Spears, Ryan Gosling, and Christina Aguilera.
Justin Timberlake grew up with a love for music, performing country and gospel music and appearing on Star Search when he was 11.
By that time, he had become interested in rhythm and blues, particularly artists like Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, and Al Green.
He became a Mouseketeer in The All-New Mickey Mouse Club in 1993, where Christina Aguilera, Ryan Gosling, and Keri Russell were his cast mates.
After leaving the show, Timberlake recruited his fellow Mouseketeer, JC Chasez, to form a boyband which would later become NSYNC.
Fame With NSYNC
NSYNC officially formed with the addition of Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, and Lance Bass in 1995 and they began their career a year later in Europe.
By 1998, the group had become incredibly popular in the US with their self-titled first album selling over 11 million copies.
Their second album, No Strings Attached, sold 2.4 million in its first week, making NSYNC a world-famous group.
In 2000, the group performed at the Academy Awards, followed by the Super Bow XXXV halftime show a year later.
By 2002, they had become the fifth-best-selling boy band in history, but it was also that year that they decided to take a hiatus.
A Solo Career
With the decline in the popularity of boy bands, NSYNC disbanded, leading Timberlake to strike out on his own.
In early 2002, he partnered with Pharrell Williams and Timbaland to start working on new music as a solo artist.
Justin Timberlake made his solo debut at the MTV Video Music Awards with the song “Like I Love You,” which peaked at no. 11 on the Hot 100.
His debut album Justified was released in November, and it sold over three million copies in the US and over 10 million worldwide.
Near the end of the year, he appeared on Punk’d with Ashton Kutcher, and in 2003 he appeared in a skit on Saturday Night Live.
In February 2004, he performed with Janet Jackson at the Super Bow XXXVIII halftime show, which was viewed by over 140 million people.
It was during this show that the infamous “wardrobe malfunction” occurred and Timberlake and Jackson were threatened with exclusion from the Grammys.
Ultimately, Timberlake did attend the 2004 Grammy Awards, where he took home two, for Best Pop Vocal Album and Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
Singing And Acting
After the Super Bowl, Justin Timberlake started focusing on acting and took his first film role in Edison Force.
Later, he starred in Alpha Dog, Black Snake Moan, and Southland Tales, as well as Elton John’s music video for “This Train Don’t Stop There Anymore.”
Timberlake continued to record with other artists and collaborated with the Black Eyed Peas on “My Style” in 2005.
In 2006, he released his second studio album, FutureSex/LoveSounds, which debuted at no. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart.
The album’s lead single, “Sexy Back,” became one of his most popular songs, and he performed it at the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards.
Timberlake performed a duet with Madonna in 2008 called “4 Minutes,” and it served as the lead single from her eleventh album.
In 2009 he was one of the writers and producers of Rhianna’s fourth studio album, Rated R, having previously produced the MTV series The Phone.
Picking Up The Pace
Starting in 2010, Justin Timberlake started focusing more on acting, appearing in The Social Network, Bad Teacher, and Friends with Benefits.
After releasing his third studio album, The 20/20 Experience, he performed at the “In Performance at the White House: Memphis Soul” concert.
His fourth album, The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2, was released in 2013, which gained him seven Grammy Award nominations.
Following that, he voiced the lead character in the DreamWorks animated film Trolls alongside Anna Kendrick and returned for its two sequels.
In 2017, he starred with Kate Winslet in the drama Wonder Wheel before headlining several festivals, including Rock in Rio.
Timberlake released his fifth studio album, Man of the Woods, in 2018, and then headlined the Super Bow LII halftime show in Minnesota.
