SexyBack Music Video: Justin Timberlake

SexyBack Music Video: Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake was at a Paris photocall promoting his single "Sexyback" earlier today.  JT had a bit to say about his "Sexyback" music video as told by MTV News: The singer fleshed out the concept for the clip with director Michael Hausmann, picked for his work on Madonna’s "Take a Bow."

"It’s one of my favorite videos Madonna’s ever done," Timberlake said. "Even today, I still remember the visuals, the images, how he captured her. A lot of times, Madonna seems like she’s the person in control, and in that video, she seemed vulnerable. It was a cool thing to see."

Because "SexyBack" isn’t exactly about Timberlake’s vulnerable side (in the song, he boasts, "If that’s your girl, better watch your back"), the video will have a very different approach than "Take a Bow."

"It’s like a small film," Timberlake said, without giving away the details. "I’ve yet to see it. I hope it’s cool."

jt looks really rough. and that song blows goats. huge goats. can you loop a simple beat and sing into a megaphone like greenday, then let out a few high pitches like a 12 year old boy? check, check, and check.

And to think that at one point (when he was younger) ppl said he looked like Ryan Phillippe. Got to say… not close now. Ryan DEFINITELY is more sexy and looks hotter. :-P Sorry if I’ve offended the JT fans here…
