Jermaine Dupri slams Justin Timberlake

Ahh, Nipplegate. Not something any of us want to revisit. And while most of us have moved past it (except for a few of you sickos – yeah I see you there, watching it on YouTube on a loop) Jermaine Dupri definitely hasn’t – but who can blame him, it was his girlfriend’s nipple that was exposed for all the world to enjoy. Justin Timberlake pretty much bailed on Janet Jackson during the whole thing. Supposedly he thought she’d done it on purpose and felt betrayed. He also famously had a crush on her growing up, and the two were rumored to have dated briefly. Jermaine Dupri thought it was Justin who betrayed Janet, and he hasn’t let the grudge go. He’s just published a book titled, “Young, Rich and Dangerous” in which he says some not-too-flattering things about Timberlake.

JERMAINE Dupri takes some potshots at Justin Timberlake in his new autobiography, “Young, Rich and Dangerous.” Dupri – still furious at the “Sexyback” star for not standing up for his lady Janet Jackson during her Super Bowl “wardrobe malfunction,” when Timberlake was onstage with her – writes, “I think Justin Timberlake is a talented performer. But he’s very ordinary-looking. He could be any skinny white kid from the suburbs of Orlando. You could go to the mall and find another Justin. He doesn’t make his style interesting even when he’s onstage. To me, he just doesn’t look like a star.” Timberlake’s rep declined comment. Dupri also reveals his love for the power of Page Six, writing that he tested our influence by having a pal call to report how he paid $300,000 for Cartier earrings. “I wasn’t so sure they would [print it] . . . But they did! People were tripping over it. I got calls from other celebrity magazines, like Us Weekly, which even did their own follow-up story,” Dupri writes. He adds, “I call the kind of fame you can get through the media The Force. That’s sort of like how Anakin became Darth Vader.”

Ohhhh, snap! But really, I have to agree. I don’t know what people get all hopped up about regarding Justin Timberlake’s appearance. I think he’s a really talented singer, but I don’t think there’s anything really attractive about him physically. He’s not ugly or anything, but he’s just sort of generic looking to me. Not that Jermaine Dupri is a bowl full of eye candy either. But who would have thought he and I would agree on so much? He also has a good outlook on the media. He understands the power it holds and how it can help careers if you use it wisely. You can also royally mess your life up if you’re famous and piss off some very powerful people… like me. That’s right Britney Spears, you best get it together. Wait, we’re not talking about you for another week. That’s Whitney Bears to you.
