Justin Timberlake does drugs, "Heroin is safer than cigarettes"

[MaryJane]

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE insists the only reason he has a squeaky-clean reputation is that he does his behaving badly behind closed doors.

He said: “I don’t show up drunk to functions. The drugs I do have been in my own private time.”

When asked if he’d ever want to be President of the United States, he joked: “I’ve done way too many drugs already. I’ve already inhaled and I’ve already . . . who knows. I don’t know if I want that responsibility.”

Justin, who put on a brilliant show at London’s Hammersmith Palais on Thursday, was speaking in tomorrow’s Observer Music Monthly mag.

He said: “I get plastered, I’ve done my fair share of drugs and I’ve been caught with my pants down. I just make sure there are no cameras around. I try to live my life in a well-rounded manner.”

Justin, pictured at the gig, celebrated his triumphant performance in London’s Movida club until 4am with girlfriend CAMERON DIAZ.

so, what i'm hearing is 'lots of drugs'.

[UndercoverGator]

Hasn't Cameron been rumored to be quite fond of Bolivian Marching Powder?

[twitchy]

Well, good for him. Behind closed doors is the proper place to act up, especially if paparazzi follow your every move. Far better than stumbling from club to club and having bleary eyed shots and regrettable antics immortalized in pictures.

[Crystal]

^^ Exactly. He's being smart about it. If you want to get down and dirty do it behind closed doors and not when you're out in public risking getting caught by a pack of paparazzi. Just hope he doesn't overdue the drugs though...

[Bellatheball]

Then why talk about it? Is little Justin tired of being seen as the squeaky clean white boy rather than a hip hop artist with "street cred" (beeeelch)? Whatever. There's a reason to do it behind closed doors...so no one knows about it. Jackass.

DOPEY JUSTIN
JUSTIN Timberlake has shattered his wholesome image by admitting he takes drugs.




In an extraordinary confession, the singer, who built a career on his charming boy-next-door image, admits that he has "done way too many drugs".

Justin, in Britain to promote his second album, is known for his professionalism and has hardly ever been caught drunk or falling out of nightclubs at 3am.


But the 25-year-old has spoken candidly about taking drugs in private and reveals that he has always been careful to avoid being caught on camera.


"The drugs that I do have been done in my own private time," he admits. "I've never been arrested... though that's not to say I won't."


JT, who performed in the UK for the first time in three years on Thursday night, goes on: "I've done way too many drugs already. I've already inhaled and I've already - who knows...?"


And, clearly not wishing to hold back, he declares that killer drug heroin is less addictive than ciggies.


"Some drugs haven't been legalised because it will ruin the other drugs, like nicotine and tobacco.


"Nicotine is more addictive than heroin. I'll leave the preaching to the preachers - my grandfather is a preacher - but I believe that you don't do anything to excess.


"They always say too much of a good thing could be a bad thing. I try to live my life in a well-rounded manner. We all make mistakes."


His revelations come in the same week that singer Lily Allen announced that she wanted to celebrate her No.1, Smile, by snorting a pile of cocaine.


Justin, who's dating gorgeous actress Cameron Diaz and plays a drug dealer in his yet-to-be-released debut movie Alpha Dog, was tightlipped when asked which drugs he has taken.


"I fear that if I said that, I'd fuel the fire, so forgive me. I'm just like everyone else - I get completely plastered, I've done my fair share of drugs and been caught places with my pants down. It's just that I make sure there are no cameras around."


The US heart-throb's revelations, in tomorrow's Observer Music Monthly magazine, will shock his young fans and are a far cry from his days on TV's wholesome Mickey Mouse Club and in cleancut boy-band 'N Sync.


So far, the most outrageous thing he has done is exposing Janet Jackson's breast during her infamous "wardrobe malfunction" at the Superbowl in 2004.


Despite his shock confession, Justin gave a polished performance when we caught him at London's Hammersmith Palais, showcasing tracks from his new album FutureSex/LoveSounds.


He adds: "I've never done anything that bad. I don't show up drunk to functions - the drugs that I do have been in my own private time.


"If Courtney Love shows up drunk to a function, then it's like, 'Oh, that's Courtney Love'. If I show up drunk, it's like: 'Oh my God!'"


Let's just hope these revelations don't prove to be too much of a mistake...

I agree Bella. Seems like he is trying a bit too hard to convince us of his new *grown up* image!

[AgentOrange]

As far as I know there are no laboratory studies to the effect that heroin causes cancer in test rats, so it may even be safer than powdered sugar.

[darksithbunny]

Just hope he is getting blow on a toilet seat and not doing blow on a toilet seat.

[DitaPage*]

Drugs suck but i give him kudos for being honest.

[LaSchifosaVita]

I think I might like him slightly better now than I did before for his honesty. And for not being a complete moron and letting his buddies take pictures of him doing drugs to post on the internet.

Also, I just love when the goodie-two-shoes stars admit or get caught doing something bad. It gives me a special kind of joy that other gossip doesn't really provide.

[Lobelia]

Justin was granted provisional membership in the Attention Whore Club after The Wardrobe Malfunction, but he has now been upgraded to Official, with a card & everything.

[alcohol the honey]

Wow. I'm impressed.

[buttmunch]

This reminds me of David Cassidy (for those who are too young, he was Keith Partridge on the Partridge Family). He went around saying how he had smoked pot in an effort to shed the squeeky clean image. It didn't do him any good and I doubt Justin Timberlake's 'confession' will do him any good. Who gives a shit if he does drugs? So does half of America, if not more.
