Justin Timberlake is nothing if not hardcore and intense. Even if you’re not a fan, it’s hard to deny that he tends to put all of himself into most everything he does. Even dating. He was serious with Britney Spears as a teenager (no easy feat); Cameron Diaz in his early twenties, and now Jessica Biel. The pair have been together for almost a year and a half, and several media outlets are reporting that Justin is planning on proposing to Jessica in the very near future. Supposedly he’s already scouting private islands for the ceremony.

He has dated some of the most beautiful women in the world but gorgeous actress Jessica Biel has finally tamed Justin Timberlake. I hear he will soon be proposing and has already started looking at potential wedding venues — or in his case, islands.

The two have been dating since January last year and rumours are rife they may already be planning a family. One source said Jessica has not been drinking recently, sparking pregnancy rumours. They added: “Justin is 27 and thinking about marriage and kids. “For the first time in his life he is feeling settled and has definitely decided to pop the question to Jessica.

His No 1 choice is the beautiful West Indian island of Mustique. Words can’t do the place justice, although the official website comes close, describing it as: “An exclusive, 1,400-acre island in the southern Caribbean with lush, rolling terrain cooled by trade winds, surrounded by pristine white beaches and clear, aquamarine waters.”

Because it is privately owned by those who live there, he would be able to ban all paparazzi — and more importantly, Bizarre reporters — from even landing there. His friend added: “Although Justin has lived his whole life in the public eye, he feels his wedding is the one day that should remain private. To get all his close friends and family to Mustique will cost a fortune. But he can’t put a price on how he feels about Jessica.

I wonder if tabloids are aware that people get married for any other reason than impending pregnancy. Of course lately they’ve been proven right quite a bit, so I really don’t have a leg to stand on. But somehow I doubt Jessica Biel is pregnant. Justin Timberlake seems like he could be a pretty intense guy to be married to. And he very much overshadows Jessica. Maybe she’s fine with that. I don’t think I’ve heard a word about her without hearing much more about him. She wasn’t a huge star before dating him, but it seems like marrying Justin might kill any chance she has for a decent career of her own – a la Katie Holmes. Marry a big star and that’s all anyone’s going to talk about.

There were rumors that Justin had cheated on Jessica with Kate Hudson this past winter, and it seemed like they could be legitimate. But the pair are clearly going strong. I don’t even want to imagine what this will do to Britney Spears.

Here’s Justin and Jessica leaving a wedding held at the Oviatt Hotel in Los Angeles on May 4th. Is it me or is Justin looking a little gaunt? Images thanks to WENN.
