Hey, you know how Justin Timberlake has always been a cheater?? Guess what? The Sun and a handful of other outlets have exclusive photos of Justin getting friendly – too friendly – with a costar in New Orleans. Justin is in NOLA to film the movie Palmer, and one of his costars is Alisha Wainwright. I guess JT and Alisha have been getting to know each other quite well, because they went out drinking at a bar and they were photographed getting handsy with each other:
Married Justin Timberlake holds hands with co-star Alisha Wainwright and she strokes his knee during boozy night out https://t.co/5DUytpoT6R
— Jasmine. (@hausofJazzy) November 23, 2019
From The Sun:
The pair were snapped around midnight chatting and drinking in a bar in New Orleans while on a break from filming a movie in which they play lovers. Sources said Justin, 38, appeared to have been drinking heavily and was unsteady on his feet. But onlookers were still shocked to see him holding hands with Alisha, and risk upsetting Jessica Biel — his wife of seven years and mum to their son Silas, four.
One said: “They were smiling and laughing. At one stage he grabbed her hand and rested it on his knee. She then gently started stroking his leg. Then he clutched her hand with both of his and was playing with her hands.”
Justin had been snapped wearing his wedding ring earlier in the week but was not seen with it on during the night out. The pair, currently filming American football drama film Palmer, were part of a small group out drinking at The Absinthe House, on Bourbon Street, in New Orleans on Thursday. But they were alone on a balcony for around 40 minutes, before going inside. It is believed they left via a rear exit around 12.30am.
A good sign that Justin knows he got caught is that he immediately went to People and had them run a “it’s all a misunderstanding!” story within the same newscycle as the “he’s cheating!” story.
New photos and video of Justin Timberlake and actress Alisha Wainwright out in New Orleans are circulating online, but a source with direct knowledge of the situation says there’s nothing to see. In a video and photos posted by The Sun on Saturday, Timberlake, who’s been married to actress Jessica Biel since 2012 (the couple are parents to 4-year-old Silas), was spotted out with Wainwright and a group of friends in New Orleans where they are currently costars on the film.
Despite the attention the footage is getting, the costars’ interactions were “completely innocent,” says a source with direct knowledge of the situation.
“It’s a balcony with a group of people and it was definitely nothing happening,” says the source. “He’s down there shooting [his film] Palmer, they’re starring in the movie together and they’re cool and everybody was just hanging out.”
According to a rep for Wainwright, “There is no validity to this speculation. They are currently working on a project together. Members of the cast and crew were all together.”
The source continues, “The video may look a way, but literally it was nothing. It was some friends, members of the team, crew and people like that. They all know each other and were hanging. Like come on, they’re on an open balcony in New Orleans and he’s famous. It was nothing.”
So… the denial isn’t really a denial. It’s “yes, what you saw happened but it didn’t MEAN anything.” Yes, they were affectionate with each other, yes, they held hands for a while, but it’s all… nothing. I mean, I’m sure some people will buy that. And please, JT stans, don’t argue that he’s NOT a cheater. He’s always cheated on girlfriends, and he and Jessica Biel have one of the weirdest marriages out there. Poor Jessica.

Cheaters gonna cheat. I could never figure out why Biel ended up with him. After her anti vaxx thing we learned she wasn’t she brightest bulb, but she can’t be that dumb? He’s cheated on her before, right? Not like, just on the down low but has gotten caught iirc.
I always had the vibe that she’s exactly that dumb, but even worse she thinks she’s super smart. I mean that’s clear with her absolute bull-hit anti-vax stuff that she’s a moron. But it’s the smugness, the arrogance that bugs me.
Remember the whole thing where their friends filmed homeless people as a “joke” for their wedding?
I honestly don’t feel bad over the idea of these two crashing and burning. They’re mediocre talents at best who’ve somehow managed to coast pretty successfully for years. They’re just such trashy, miserable people.
And pretty, Erinn, you forgot “pretty”! Smart AND pretty.
Ugh I remember the homeless people video and am glad other people remember it because to me it’s just evidence of what a p.o.s. Timberlake is. Just like how he threw Janet Jackson under the bus after the Super Bowl show. Or when he read the Golden Globe nominees and adlibbed throughout it (thinking he was funny, but wasn’t.). Or how he would dominate red carpet interviews and not let Biel get a word in. There was a period in the mid-aughts where he could do no wrong among some circles – frequent SNL appearances, a whole week on Jimmy Fallon (who seems to have some sort of crush on him). And all I could think of was what a jerk he was.
That marriage always seemed weird, there was never any warmth between them. All I got on her is she tried to open a restaurant and she was sued by the employees for wage theft. So she seems just great.
100% cosign this entire comment. they’re both the worst. honestly I feel like she knows he cheats and puts up with it because I don’t think she would have a relevant career at this point at all if they hadn’t gotten married.
@Mumbles
Or their People Magazine cover for their wedding where he’s jumping up and down hogging the spotlight and she’s just sat there. Weirdest wedding cover ever!. Or his song “Mirrors” which was supposed to be a love song to Jessica but ended up being about himself. How narcissistic can one person be?
I remember that People wedding cover. I’ve always thought these two were actually well matched because she just wanted to be Mrs. Justin Timberlake, no matter what, and she didn’t care about taking a back seat to his egomania and vanity.
She’s another anti-vaxxer? Ugh. I no longer feel bad for never liking her or feeling she’s limited in talent and intellect.
Yes to all of this!!! The homeless people video and throwing JJ under the bus… he’s a pos. Ugh… “are you gonna believe me or your lying eyes?” So sick of gaslighting!
She lobbied against a vaccination bill with Robert F Kennedy Jr in California earlier this year
https://www.thedailybeast.com/jessica-biel-comes-out-as-anti-vaxx-activist-joins-robert-f-kennedy-jr-to-lobby-against-ca-vaccination-bill
@Kebbie – some years ago we had RFK Jr. as the keynote speaker at our annual conference and I had to deal with him a lot. He is one of the rudest, smuggest a$$holes I’ve ever had to work with. He hijacked the conference theme and made it all about himself and his “causes” instead of sticking with the theme of making education affordable (I worked in the college system in Ontario at the time). Both he and Biel have done more damage to countless kids with this anti-vax crap than you can imagine. She’s as dumb as a box of hair and he’s an arrogant, entitled jerk. If her husband is playing away I’m sorry for her but crap on a cracker he’s done it to her before, you’d think she’d leave his adulterous ass.
Not only that she went to Sacramento to convince the pols not to pass the exemption law. So yeah she pushes it too.
She dated Chris Evans before she hooked up with this dummy. I bet Captain America is thanking his stars he dodged a bullet.
I honestly think she knows her association with him keeps her more famous which explains why she stuck around this long and puts up with public embarrassment-
100% agree, Meg. I think most of it for her is about the status. She campaigned like crazy for roles like Catwoman and didn’t get it and never quite made it into the illusive A-list. Status and wealth; she ain’t doing too badly $$wise but his wealth is actually on another level – powerful level in showbiz.
I agree with you 100%
You people really kill me. Its hilarious that you think vaccines are safe!!! It’s ok, you are all just making the gene pool smarter for those of us who know more.
Enjoy your polio, Sara.
@sara It’s ok because you all are making the gene pool smaller….and I Oop.
My grandfather couldn’t use the right side of his body without great difficulty because of polio. Do what you like, Sara, but in the realm of public health, I support herd immunity and the eradication of as many fatal illnesses as possible.
(And hell yes my three kids are fully vaccinated.)
Yes @sara Do enjoy your polio and your tetanus.
I feel really sorry for your children but hopefully once they get out from under your ignorant thumb and go to college they will get caught up on their vaccines.
That seems to be what a lot of kids of ignorant anti-vaxxors are doing as they hit 18.
Plus they can’t go to college or university without being vaccinated
It’s cute that you think being anti-vaxx will make you add MORE to the gene pool…
Are you also anti-electricity, anti-chlorinated water and anti-indoor toilets?
I do take some comfort in knowing that your kind is making themselves so open to diseases that had been essentially eradicated and only brought back by uninformed trash.
Looking at the people who aren’t vaccinated (by choice not medical need) … I REALLY hope you’re not expecting that gene pool to get smarter, Sara. Because all of the ones I’ve had the displeasure of meeting have been incredibly sub-par in both critical thinking, concern for others, and of course overall intelligence.
I hope you thoroughly enjoy the entire 8 years of your children’s lives, Sara
So sad. I’m in the medical field, and it’s not the idiot parents like this chick who suffer — it’s innocent children. It’s not just that you’re ignorant; it’s that you’re proudly, smugly ignorant by choice.
And your smallpox too. You and the other anti-vaxxers are proving Darwin’s theory all too well (that’s not a positive).
Honest question, don’t bite my head off. Is holding hands with a best friend of the opposite sex or touching hands affectionately cheating?
@lillian I think that is for each couple to
Figure out and for context to play a role in. Husband grabs his friends hand as they run down a street or something- I’m ok. Husband holds his coworkers hand and caresses it at
Bar while I’m at home- it’s a no from me.
What about if your husband has a best friend for years that you have never met?
If your husband has a best friend for years that you’ve never met (especially if you’ve been together for a while), I’d be asking why you’ve never been introduced to the best friend. Context again – if said best friend has been living overseas, for example, well, fair enough.
I have grabbed a hand of my friend’s husband to pull him into a private convo when we were all drinking at a party. None of us were bothered by it. (Was addressing an issue with the kids that he needed to know about.) But holding and caressing hands? No ma’am.
It’s a “HELL NO” from me. I’d be on a plane in a second to either dump his ass or scare the bejeebers out of both of them. The absolute best light you could put on it is to say they’d both had too much to drink and got flirty, but “nothing happened”. Jerk move on both their parts.
Lillian, I’m concerned for you. If you are not OK not meeting your husband’s friend, he needs to honor your feelings and introduce you. You seem to be questioning yourself instead of your husband, and I wonder if he’s the kind of guy who turns everything into being “your” problem instead of his. I don’t know of too many women who would be OK with their husbands having a long friendship w/another woman without introducing her. Seems completely unacceptable in my book, but you need to value your own feelings more than mine OR your husband’s. Best wishes to you in sticking up for what you want in life!
Lilian my rule is any friend of my husband’s has to be a friend to the marriage. They don’t need to be my bestie or anything but shady behaviour like not being upfront and arranging a meeting over dinner or drinks or something isn’t being a friend to the marriage. Whether or not it’s the friend holding back or your husband pretending you don’t want to meet it’s worth digging deeper.
Well, and also, she has her hand on the inside of his thigh. So, holding hands can be explained, it can look like something it’s not, agreed. Your hand on the inside of a person’s thigh? I can only speak for myself. The only people who have ever touched the inside of my thighs have been people I was sexually intimate with.
My feeling is, if you can’t do it in front of your spouse, then it’s something you shouldn’t do. Just my opinion.
100% co sign
Yep. That’s a good yardstick.
Yep, that’s what I was going to say. If I saw photos of my husband doing this exact thing (forgetting the fact that the entire world can see the same photos) we would have a BIG problem.
Co-sign. I would also add the advice I read from a therapist: “if you want to know if it’s cheating or not, ask your spouse”.
this. one of my husband’s best friends (and a groomsman in our wedding) is like a brother to me, and he turns into an infant when he drinks and will often crawl into my lap or hold my hand in front of my husband and his wife. Its very brother/sister and not sexual at all, and both of our spouses are completely comfortable and don’t care, but if a stranger walked past and saw that it would definitely be taken out of context. The 4 of us are also very close and have known each other for years, which I think makes a difference. If my husband had a coworker that he viewed as a sister, but I didn’t know her and I heard they were holding hands at a work event I’d feel disrespected for sure.
THIS
You forgot stroking their knee? 😬 Taken as a package and in context it would certainly be inappropriate at the very least.
Context is big:I have had married friends’ husbands put an arm around me for a photo or hold my hand when the sidewalk was covered in ice and I wore the wrong shoes…….we have never stroked each other’s knees at the dinner table like they’re doing. Yikes.
If they weren’t f**king already it was heading that way.
The knee stroking is very intimate and much harder to explain away, in my opinion.
Agreed, especially with the knee stroking. One of my best friends is married man. He’s held my hand while crossing the street or put his hands on my shoulder to draw my attention or have a conversation but that’s it. But the way she had her hands on his knee and thigh, even in the video, is a bit too intimate for best friends and definitely so for co-stars.
I just watched the video. He is falling down drunk. I have no particular interest in him one way or another, but I actually can believe, based on that clip, that the other people there are tolerantly keeping an eye on him and then trying to get him to go home. This is a defence of the women not him. I would hate either of them to be labelled if all they were trying to do is be a mate.
Same. I don’t know where the photos of them holding hands comes from because that’s not in the video. I was actually uncomfortable watching him…dude is in no way able to function he’s so out of it.
Totally agree. Seeing the pics brings you to a much different conclusion but the video is clear. He was completely wasted and they were all trying to tolerate him and at the end that women is doing everything she can to get him to leave. You can see when he says “come here” and she leans over so he can slur something I’m sure in her face. Then she fake laughs and proceeds to try and get him out of there. You can see everyone on the balcony is just annoyed with him and probably rolling their eyes. They just want him gone too.
Yup he is wasted and she is looking out for his dumb ass! LOL! In this #METOO era he needs a babysitter clearly, he was totally lunging at the white girl like a predator. I can just him drunkinly trying to lure her to his bed…LOL!
Given how annoying as fk he is sober he must be an absolute nightmare when drunk or high.
The video changed my mind. That’s not a woman trying to get with someone. She seems sober (or at least not drunk) and not at all flirty with him. Does she even follow him inside? She patted him on the back like “go on, time for you to go home.”
The knee stroking is too intimate, but maybe it was more caretaker than romantic. The hand holding, after seeing the video, is probably nothing. He held that other girl’s hand and wouldn’t let go. He’s a cheater. But I can’t imagine he was able to cheat on this night.
I think Jellybean and Vesper upthread are spot on! I’m assuming he and Alicia got handsy and then somehow that lady he’s grabbing at in the video (in FRONT of Alicia who was just getting handsy with him) is trying to help his boozy self out and get him out of there. Perhaps she even put a stop to that. This is alarming to me on several levels.
1-As a sista and remembering how he threw JJ under the bus I’d hope Alicia would be smarter and more respectful of herself and his wife and not put herself in a position where either he can say SHE was coming into him or him to take this a step she doesn’t want and no one believe her because she was “asking for it” or he doesn’t have a history or affinity for “black women”. My brown skin would have been side stepping him. Sista girl needs to “watch OUT!” 😒
2-In this #metoo era that handsy business with the lady who got him out of there was sounding off alarm bells for some level of harassment and enraging me that she had to amusingly fend him off! He is too young to not know better.
3-It annoys me that the writeup is about he and Alicia when those pics are a separate issue from the video. That video should be a separate story about how he was harassing that lady because she certainly didn’t look like she was getting cozy with him so much as trying to keep herself out of trouble and in a way save HIS skin as well! Why does a woman bear the brunt of this? Any of those fellas could have helped him out of there and it would have been even more evident what was going on. He is too relevant and prominent for this to be cast aside, this behavior is unacceptable and I’m disappointed none of the outlets are addressing that.
3-Again, ALL of this makes me liken JT and Biel to Affleck and Garner. Right down to misbehaving in a harassing manner with women.😤
Same. I posted as much below. The video shows a different side versus the photos. Shame others won’t watch the video.
if you’re famous and wealthy you have people in your ‘team ‘ so stuff like this doesn’t happen. Oh he was just drunk and needed help-then get one of the many people on your payroll to help you because this looks bad.
I saw the video and it seemed like he was WASTED and being sleazy. He grabbed Alicia hand then started whispering in another woman’s ear. Either way…. he’s down for whatever the woman will allow. That’s on him. Hes married. He took vows. Not them.
And I do hope that no Black woman entertains him. He panders, appropriates, and disrespects black culture. Hes the worst.
Agree that context matters. Years long friends, it probably wouldn’t matter. But these are co-workers who’ve met a few weeks/months ago. It’s not appropriate and indicates something is going on. It always boggles my mind that people go out in public when they cheat.
@Lilian
A husband having a female best friend the wife has never met is SUPER sketchy.
Yeah. If he sees her enough to be holding her hand, there’s no reason the wife shouldn’t have met her by now. And if it seems like he’s not wanting to introduce them, well, there’s your answer. Definitely not on the level.
for me cheating is doing anything that you know your spouse wouldn’t be okay with. I certainly wouldn’t be okay with one of my husband’s female friends stroking his leg and then holding hands while out together, especially when I wasn’t there. he would feel the same way about me with my male friends. it doesn’t mean we can’t have friends of the opposite sex, but their stuff that I do with my husband that I wouldn’t do with them.
A few of my guy friends are married. We knew each other before they were. Never in a million years would I stroke their knee or hold their hand. I’m very good friends with their wives so we all hug when greeting each other but that’s it.
I wouldn’t touch a single guy’s knee if I wasn’t flirting either. To me this isn’t even a question, this looks like cheating or at the very least highly inappropriate.
Yes to all off this emmy!
I think it isn’t that the action itself is cheating, rather it is indicative that cheating is likely going on.
True story – a close friend of my then husband’s started stroking my knee at a party one night. I thought I would hit the roof. I quietly told him to f*ck off and told my husband who pooh-poohed it. A few weeks later everyone, including the thigh-stroker, was at a drunken skating party but I had a cold and stayed home. He grabbed a friend’s wife’s boobs while they were skating and her husband decked him.
So no, leg stroking is a huge no-no and nobody holds my hand except Mr. Jaded unless I’m tipping over which doesn’t happen very often.
If they can act that careless in public imagine how they interact in private
@Lilian. Yes. Yes, it is.
Having a best friend your wife has never met? That isn’t normal, and it isn’t okay.
Putting your hands on a friend of the attracted sex when your spouse isn’t there? That isn’t normal, and it isn’t okay.
Look, marriage isn’t something everyone wants, and it isn’t something that everyone is suited to. I’ll also say marriage isn’t practiced the same way for everyone. But…even with all of that…in a monogamous marriage, we don’t hold hands and caress knees and play intimately with another person’s fingers while we’re stone drunk and the spouse isn’t there.
It’s cheating.
Thank you to everyone for the advice. Just for context, I was the best friend for 5 years. He never introduced me to his wife. We were never touchy Feely unless one of us was emotional. So I guess I was the other woman. I’m not anymore just FYI.
It’s weird that he never introduced you to his wife. To me, that means he was keeping you a secret from her. Glad you moved on!
Was married 20 years, and it would have never bothered me if my husband was holding someone’s hand. I think it depends on the person. Just for clarification, no we did not have an open marriage either and no one cheated. I worked with him so I was more sure than most, and I trusted him. If you are wondering about the past tense he passed away unfortunately.
My theory on cheating is if you want to go with someone else, let your partner know you are unhappy don’t just do it. Among other things it’s disrespectful. Life’s way to0 short to be worried about whether your spouse is running around on you. There really is no point in marrying if you are just going to run around with other people.
Just read that Jessica Biel’s take under the cheating clause in their pre-nup is only $500,000?
Oh honey….not enough. Not remotely enough.
But according to the online experts he is gay. Cheating on your fake wife with a fake girlfriend is classic bearding – please read in a voice dripping with sarcasm.
Finally somebody writes what I’ve been thinking while reading this entire thread! Timberlake and Biel are both gay, it’s a beard relationship (a toxic one, there have been and are some decent ones). And for the trillionth time a co-star has to suck up to a more famous co-star by getting sexual with him, even if she appears to be enjoying herself. Classic Hollywood power imbalance.
If Jessica Biel ever leaves it’s because the relationship has become too toxic even for her. Can’t even imagine being in a relationship with that tool, let alone have a baby by him. Their pap strolls and candids are cold as ice. And how in the world does JT get a movie with billing? Oh….. right.
I nearly fell off my chair but one of the top ranked comments on the Daily Fail, was maybe he will blame Janet for this also. I love how Lainey Gossip still comes down hard on him for that. I always disliked Justin Timberlake, not because of anything he specifically did but due to the the media and industry annoiting him the next big thing in music and acting, and forcing that narrative instead of the public deciding themselves. It’s the same reason I completely loathe a Bollywood actor called Ranbir Kapoor.
It can’t be Janet’s fault because it’s clearly Meghan’s fault
*sarcasm**eye roll*
it was Laniey who really clued me into it, and now all I can see is how all about himself and obnoxious he really is. before that I haven’t really paid much attention but kind of liked them. now I can’t stand him.
She’s had his number for years, that’s for sure.
I always thought JT was unattractive and untalented and that was before I learned he was a jerk. Why is he so successful?
Same here, I’ve never liked him or understood his appeal. He has talent as a musician, but so do lots of people.
And the more I learned about him over the years, the more I’ve disliked him.
I will just take this as face value and leave it at that.
The photo where she has her hand on his knee and he’s holding her arm/keeping it there is VERY suspect. In my opinion the video makes it look worse. He’s grabbing at a DIFFERENT person in front of Alicia. It’s like they realized he’d lost inhibitions w/ Alicia and Alicia didn’t care so the lady in the video was trying to extricate him from the situation and public eye and he was getting hands-y with HER!!!
I’ve read that Jessica has insecurities that drive him crazy and it’s gotten worse since the kid as she doesn’t feel sexy. Also, that it took her so long to get him to settle down. I remember the insecurity thing being said about Cam regarding her acne. He seems to have a type. All that to say, the video footage is the most damning in my opinion and makes me think this isn’t the first time and it could have been even more involved in the past.
I wonder if they’ll be back in counseling or if this is it for them. JT and Jessica remind me of Ben A and Jennifer G.
After watching the video and seeing how wasted and handsy he was, I think you’re right, this may very well end up like Affleck and Garner 🙁 Hopefully, it won’t take Biel as long as Jen…
Have you other CB posters seen his photos with the backup dancer from a few years back? They were so intimate and it was so obvious he was doing something or about to, in terms of cheating. I think he’s a serial cheater though have no definitive take in this case except they look likely to be intimate but open to the idea they’re just having a boozy colleagues’ night out where the boundaries are a little blurred and it’s mild flirting.
It’s “yes, what you saw happened but it didn’t MEAN anything.”
The perfect Trumpian response. Ugh. Truth and accountability mean nothing.
I feel like the next step will be them saying something like they are method actors and were just staying in character. We poor, simple civilians could never hope to understand the creative processes of a certified genius. Le sigh. I don’t like her, but I feel sorry for Biel.
Not just Trumpian but narcissistic gaslighting!☹️
What an a-hole. How humiliating for his wife. I’m not a fan of Biel but even she doesn’t deserve this crap. And what is with this Alisha chick? She obviously knows he’s married. Trashy.
I don’t know. She stole tips from her employees. I would say she may deserve her karma.
What? Biel stole money from her employees?
Alisha, honey, u hawt as hell! You deserve better than to be the side piece of a married Me Me Me Man of the Woods.
Don’t even get me started on that stupid troll song or what he did to Janet.
Run to Michael B Jordan! Run!
No, no, no, Michael b Jordan is all mine! 😊
Her hand is on his inner thigh, a bit higher up than his knee. They’re hooking up.
Alisha girl, you deserve better.
Yup. He is bombed but they look very comfortable with each other, not the first time they touched.
Biel knowingly married the biggest d-bag out there, it’s hard to feel sorry for her.
She’s getting paid in status and power (a couple forms of the HW currencies out there) in exchange. His wealth eclipses hers and she was always more B-list though tried hard to get into A-list, $20 million pay day level. Remember how Olivia Munn leaked all those stories about how she’d have loved for something serious to happen? Her hunger for the power couple thing with JT, a douche and likely frequent cheater, probably sheds light on what’s going on / what was going on in Biel’s head.
I hope it is a misunderstanding because Aisha can do so much better
than Thimberfake.
Cant believe i’m defending JT, but i saw the actual video and I can’t really say that he is flirting or cheating because he was very drunk and kept his distance from alisha most of the time. She briefly put her hands on his lap, but also can’t really say that she was trying anything with him. Could just be inappropriately friendly since he is married. The hand hold moment can’t be seen on the video, but they have it in still so i dont know…all im saying is there nothing in the video, only a drunk JT.
I’d easily believe everything dodgy about JT – but also my take from the video + photos combined is that he’s “love you maaan”-grabbing-hands, not-walking-without-physical-help, who-was-I-talking-to, can’t-form-words state of drunk.
To me though, it seems curious someone who looks quite sober persistently sticks around for 40 mins with a unintelligible drunk, even putting her hands on his thigh. She could’ve left, he does not need babysitting.
So – purely based on the receipts, it looks like she’s coming on to him when he’s too drunk to know. However, he still could be cheating. But not necessarily with her (yet).
Ha! Sorry I find no sympathy for the anti vaxxing moron. She risks endangering lives and health others for the sake of her stupidity and asinine views that have been proven false ANd actively tries to support laws that would allow more ppl to potentially be at risk of those who choose not to vaccinate… I’m laughing and will continue to do so, this couple deserves each other
I’ve been to that bar on Bourbon Street. Great place. That’s all I’ve got as I can’t stand Justin. Joey was always my favorite NSYNC-er.
What baffles me most is why he is cast in any movie at all.
I’ve never understood how anyone could find him attractive, looks or personality wise.
Fame and fortune must be a helluv an aphrodisiac.
New Orleans resident here—JT is exhibiting Bourbon street amateur hour behavior: drunk and handsy with the opposite sex (or same sex, if that is what you prefer.) Hot take: She is an up-and-coming actress being hit on by her drunk, married, higher-up-in-the-Hollywood-food chain than she is, and she is humoring him, while being horrified on the inside.
Yeah, I think you’re right. I’ve been in that situation and it’s not enjoyable. If you don’t want it and tell him off, the guy can make it difficult for you at work. So you just kinda sit there and try to think in your head of a way to get out of the situation. I probably would have said I had to go the bathroom and then start mingling with others.
I went to New Orleans a few weeks ago with my girlfriend and stayed in the Oliver House. We walked around, got some food, walked more, then we went back to the hotel to rest. We ended up staying there and went to bed at 9:30! We’re both married and not big drinkers so we didn’t go to the bars. To be honest, I was a little let down by the experience. We didn’t eat at any good places imo. Will probably go back in a few weeks with my husband since he hasn’t been there, any suggestions ?
@joanna There is SO MUCH more to New Orleans. I always hate that our tourism emphasizes Bourbon Street and drinking.
The French Quarter on a weekday is lovely to walk around. Royal Street (more towards Canal Street) is filled with aniques stores. Take a haunted history tour — a fun way to see the French Quarter and learn the history (though the LaLurie Mansion is not haunted; I have been there a number or times. Or maybe the ghosts were scared of me?!) Or take a tour (actually recommend this) of the Garden District — beautiful homes and a nice walk — there are also cemetary tours nearby both the Garden District and FQ, look up Save Our Cemeteries. (Our cemeteries are above ground because the city is below sea level.)
Museums: Ck. our what they have on exhibition before you go: The Cabildo and Presbytere are part of the state museum system and showcase exhibitions around history; New Orleans Museum of Art (in City Park), Ogden Museum of Southern Art, Contemporary Arts Center and National World War II Museum (the last three are across the streets from each other); Mc-Kenna Museum of African-American Art; New Orleans Museum of African-American Art (this one has rotating hours — it is also in teh process of renovation, but its complex of traditional homes in the Treme is phenomenol).
Take a riverboat cruise (day time).
Music: Preservation Hall, Tipitina’s, Maple Leaf, to name a few. I actually dont’ mind the music in the bars in the FQ, though they could turn the sound down a notch!
Food: Where to start? Depends on what you like and price range. Let me know.
ANything else you interested in! (You can tell I love my city!)
Oh thanks so much! My husband loves history, I will take him to the museums. What restaurant do you recommend for seafood? Would love to try some genuine Louisiana seafood gumbo. My friend and I made a spur of the moment trip, we’re only 4 hours away. Will look into it more before I go with hubby. I live in Destin FL area btw
If you’ve got the time, take 90 rather than 10. More scenic.
@Leonsmama — Yeeeeeep. I just watched the video and everyone’s behavior on the balcony was that of horrified co-workers at the Xmas party after the boss had gotten wasted way too early in the evening — you’re inwardly repulsed but outwardly inexpressive. He’s pretty isolated, and most of the party are avoiding eye contact with him. His body is loose and his movements uncoordinated. The lady in the black pants (maybe a PA) is doing the classic “Oh, you’re hilarious!” fake laugh as she attempts to arm wrestle him off the balcony, where Alisha Wainright then gives him the slap on the back of an acquaintance whose goodwill has been tested.
Not saying he’s not a cheater, but I’ve had my fair share of drunken hangouts, and have definitely had this same interaction with friends and strangers alike. Drunk, married men of my acquaintance have hugged me to them, held my hand, and/or whispered gibberish sloppily in my ear, just because they were trashed. It’s always better when their wives are around because then they can be passed back to her rather easily. When they’re alone, however, it can be a much more delicate process depending on how much you care about helping them save face.
Not trying to defend JT, but come on her hand is on his knee not the other way around. Plus, there are still women who sleep with men to get ahead and vice versa. Not saying she is one of them, as I think this is pretty much nothing, but just cause she’s less famous than him doesn’t mean he has the power. JT isn’t a well known actor. He’s a singer, and this is for a movie. In this situation she may have more power, but my guess is they are pretty equal here.
As someone who visits New Orleans yearly, correct this is drunk dude amateur hour. I’d also recommend Bachhanal and Music Box Village in the Bywater.
Stay off Bourbon past Lafitte’s it’s a mess after 8.
And yet the grief he gave Britney when she cheated. Holy hypocrite! I can’t stand cheaters. You wanna screw around, fine, you do you. But if you’re in a relationship just break up with them first! So dirty.
Ooohhh good point
I think Justin’s ego is why he won’t stop bringing up brit cheating, he can’t believe someone would cheat on HIM
Hmmm. Separated woman here. Married only a few months more than JT and Biel. The 7 year itch is real. And if you and better half aren’t seeing eye to eye on big and small things at that mark the possibility of straying is so high. But by the same token, based on the fact the honeymoon phase is over and no one is wearing rose colored glasses, there is also ample opportunity to really be more open about the rules that define the marriage. I vote Biel would not exactly gag or gasp at this. If anything, the two of them may just join forces to issue joint statements for the sake of reputation/image. But behind closed doors there could be a separate beds situation. Or a “let’s wait til Silas is 10” conversation. This hot actress is just a symptom of the state of their marriage. Ramble over. Lol
I hope you’re going through it all ok, and that you have good support. Sending good thoughts your way, Delilah!
@ Lindy you are too kind. Indeed my support system is great. I’m not going through “it”. Kinda over it. The greater challenge is having to keep a low profile for professional and privacy purposes in general. Only my best, closest friends are in the loop. I haven’t really given my family the full scoop. Some are in the know more than others.
Thanks for the 7 year itch insights. Just wanted to add if you throw the HW environment, being away on sets/tours all the time, and being surrounded by ostensibly some of the most attractive people in the world, the temptation might be constant.
Just to be clear, other ppl and temptation weren’t the issues in my marriage. However, once I wasn’t in love with my husband anymore in my mind the prospect of starting over wasn’t daunting or disconcerting. I recalibrated my views about the right one and marriage overall. Having the fantasy torpedoed is a really good way to help managed expectations. Breaking up is not the worst thing. Sometimes staying is.
Two things. I can’t believe someone actually hired this guy to ACT. Secondly, I can’t believe an attractive, talented Black woman would give this racist piece of shit the time of day. If you don’t have respect for yourself or Janet, have some respect for Prince.
I guess we’re all just fallible humans, whatever the color.
Yeah, racism is just a simple human failing. Nothing to make a fuss over.
Pretty sure that’s not what she meant. I think the fallible human was referring to the actress, she meant sometimes people just go for creeps and they have a way of seeing what they want to see. Even on here with limited facts we have people 100% positive on things. Which to me seems quite odd, since I don’t think many actually know these people or whether the dubious facts are accurate. One thing I do know working in media, people are rarely how their image is presented. Most stories wouldn’t really surprise me either way in their accuracy or motives.
Whatever your opinion on vaxx/anti vaxx, Biel is a gorgeous woman and a pretty decent actress. I never got an arrogant vibe from her but that’s just me. Justin though, is a douche.
Holding hands and getting touchy with another woman in public is so disgusting, I can’t with this. Douche Canouche
I love the dress she’s wearing in that pic and she’s beautiful… that’s all I want to absorb from this since I’m still low on coffee. Ugh
Alisha, you can do better. Justin has been and always will be PAB to me and my friends. Biel won’t leave him. She has more at stake now.
I’d rather my husband have random sex with another woman then hold her hand.
Seriously.
Hand holding would enrage and humiliate me way more than sex.
Technically this includes hand holding, thigh touching, and photos and videos all over the internet. But I know what you mean, there is something more intimate about it.
I will never ever understand women who think like this.
Ask any guy if he’d be more okay with his woman having sex with another man instead of just holding hands.
…it’s sad that your ultimate decider in whether something is acceptable is whether men would agree with it.
Ive always liked Beil. Other than the anti vax stuff, I dont get the hate here towards her. Always thought she was beautiful and came across down to earth. Rumor did have it that she had a pill problem a few years ago, and thats largely what got her out of the public eye.
Justin, well. He looks like he’s coked out of his mind in every photo I’ve seen in him for years now lol.
Jessica, leave his over rated ass.
DM’s comments section is *really* dragging him. They’re spilling lots of tea that I didn’t know or had forgotten about.
For example, I had no idea he cheated on Britney first. The way he played it back in the day he made people believe that Britney cheated first and it was her fault the relationship ended! No wonder Britney was a mess after they broke up.
Yep, Brit had that fling with Wade Robson to get back at him for cheating first and he retaliated with that song and video playing the victim. I think that affect Brit in ways that contributed to her eventual breakdown. And lets not forget he made jokes about it and has continued to make snarky jibes at her mental health.
Also he is aging really badly.
wait what? I never knew that. Never been a fan of JT as he is just a douchebag but that is just next level a**hole for him.
He made a comment like this on stage at the Brit Awards in 2007 the year before her breakdown and when everyone could see she was struggling with her MH.
“Stop drinking! You know who you are. I’m speaking to you. You are going to get sloppy.” Timberlake then joked, “OK! magazine is going to say something bad about you.”
Yes thank you! People forget this!
Looks like he used her to launch his solo career and used the controversy to make the first album a hit.
I just always assumed JT had an open marriage.
Ding ding ding.
I also think that’s why Chaning & Jenna’s divorce was so relatively low drama. They may have both been dating others for quite a while, and it was just NBD. Not saying open marriages don’t have drama (cuz oh, they do) just that people have different arrangements, that can lead to things playing out in unexpected ways. For all we know, Biel is like “Ug, please just go hook up with someone because I’m busy with my sidepiece and you’re irritating me.”
People keep talking about the video and how drunk he is and using that to give him a pass.
But I keep seeing the still of old girl’s hand pretty high up on the inside of his thigh and I don’t know how you see that and still rule out an inappropriate intimacy between these two.
No great love for Biel here, largely because of the anti-vax nonsense, for which I have no tolerance. I do think she could’ve been a bigger deal–I recall thinking she was fantastic in an interesting movie about am illusionist set a couple (?) centuries ago in maybe Berlin, or Vienna.
But this makes me feel sorry for her. How humiliating to have this splashed all over the internet. I’ve loathed everything about JT since basically forever. Not very talented in any way. And what a gross person. Ugh.
Beil is a talented actress but I think she struggled to get decent roles because she was up against more talented actresses like Reese Witherspoon. I get the feeling that when she married him she put her career on hold as not to over shadow him and his. We all know what a mega douche bag he is, he’s always had problems with not being the biggest star on the street.
He never had half of the charisma or ‘X’ factor that Britney did and I think that’s why he’s always trying to pull her down. She was a solo artist from the beginning (girl was a born entertainer and at her height no one could touch her), he was just another boy band member who’s solo career was propped up by the very talented producers he worked with.
Timberlake’s arrogance goes all the way back to his Mickey Mouse days – I recall another child actor who worked with him on that show saying he was an arrogant little douche even then.
No, Jessica struggled because she was too pretty. She’s said so many times!
You can judge me but
when I was cheating
these were the subtle but giveaway affection touches I was doing stupidly in public…
Obviously I regret my actions (I never slept with the guy; it was an emotional affair; my exh turned out to be gay), but when I see this…I cringe because I know.
Cheating is atrocious and wrecks lives and regardless if one likes JT or Jessica, this is PAINFUL, life-altering, and private now. Bet he stops drinking….to save his marriage.
I think you’re giving him way too much credit. He’s not going to stop drinking and she’s not going to demand he does. This is what he does and what he’s always done. After the video, I’m not convinced he’s actually sleeping with this girl, but he’s certainly cheated on Jessica before and throughout their marriage. That’s not going to change and neither is he.
“Demanding” things like that never works anyway. If the person doesn’t want to make the change, the best you can do is (maybe) negotiate and try to be encouraging of positive changes they make.
Naw, man.
Nope. Dude is a cheatin’ cheater. Every reasonable adult in the entire world KNOWS that if you’re married, this shit is unacceptable, I don’t care how his “sources” try to spin it. The “Yeah, no, we were on a *public balcony* so of COURSE we’re cool,” defense is one of the lamer PR fails I’ve seen in quite a while.
Justin, you’re busted. Own it, Bro. You should be ashamed of yourself and what this is gonna do to your wife and kid. Ugh. MFer.
Right?!? Like no one, famous or not, ever does anything stupid in public or that no one ever gets drunk and forgets that other people may be watching? Worst excuse ever.
I don’t think his wife is surprised by any of this but as someone who has been cheated on by a spouse, it is always humiliating and hurtful.
Jessica Biel is an anti-vaxxer, so I don’t feel bad for her lol
Then ya gotta take back “Cry Me A River”, JT! #TeamBritney
If you watch the video at the source, it is clear the man is drunk. So I wouldn’t necessarily say this is cheating. Another woman shows up and she is trying to get him to leave and when he stands, it’s pretty clear he is drunk, dude has to hold on to the wall.
He’s still an a$$hole though.
In vino veritas.
years ago she made a speech in front of all the guests at his birthday party and said something really touching and his response was to stand up, put his hands in the air and scream ‘yeah bitch!’ Read this elsewhere not sure how true it is but I can totally see it happening
I remember this. Just one of his many instances of douchery. Apparently Jessica was startled and taken aback but quickly recovered. Her speech was apparently a heartfelt one about what he meant to her, etc., and he cut her off like that, in a very embarrassing way. She totally knew what she was marrying. LOL.
I see a lot of blame on Jessica Biel here. All this is Justin’s / Alisha’s actions to blame
I don’t think anyone is BLAMING her for his cheating. Just pointing out that there have been tons of cheating rumors from him before this, so she probably is aware and won’t leave him.
Remember when he released that music video where he pretended to care about #metoo, etc. LMAO
that guy can’t get beyond himself to care about anything else
really sucks for his wife and child.
So HE put her hand on his upper leg? Who says she wanted him to? He’s gross. Either he’s forcing himself on his co-worker or they are having an affair. No matter how you slice it, he sucks.
I’ve always though JT was super ugly and N’SYNC overrated. BSB and Britney for life!
Her hand is on his thigh not the other way around in the video. Also, they just have a still of them holding hands but you can’t really see that. I could see him as a cheater too, just cause he seems the type. I could be wrong though, but either way your scenario is wrong. It’s possible she’s coming on to him. Maybe married fathers are her thing, who knows.
What I read was that he took her hand and placed it on his thigh. Just because her hand is on his body doesn’t mean she initiated it. I’ve had a man take my hand and put it on their junk when I didn’t want to touch him. Most likely it’s a consensual thing but the possibility exists.
The alleged eyewitness account was “At one stage he grabbed her hand and rested it on his knee. She then gently started stroking his leg.” Another wording was “Justin was seen reaching over and clutching the arm of the stunning actress, before she tenderly rested her hand on his right knee.” So that could even be that he grabbed her arm for attention, and her hands wandered on their own.
Her response to the hand grab does indicate that they’re either already cheating, or she’s hoping for that. The video is edited, so cannot quite tell if she possibly even initiated it all earlier on.
It definitely does not seem like he’s forcing anything. Why would a sober-looking person hang around with a (literally) legless JT for so long, if she’s not interested in starting something with him? If she was just worried about “a drunk friend”, she could’ve just ordered him a cab – not shop for a salami. My take was that when the other girl grabs JT and walks him in (in the video), Alisha actually looks like she lost her candy.
So: we already knew what a jerk JT is, but she’s no innocent in this.
Biel blames her shortage of good roles on her beauty, is an antivaxxer, allegedly stole tips from her Au Fudge employees, and clings to him like a barnacle for relevance. Timberlake is an arrogant, self centered culture vulture who throws his exes under the bus. I’m not rooting for anyone here (except maybe Alisha Wainwright – Girl, snap out of it and get away from that tool).
Alisha Wainwright isn’t exactly blameless here. She is in the wrong not Jessica Biel. You don’t put your hand on a married man’s thigh. No matter how drunk the two of you are. That’s just gross.
Hmmm. Once a cheater, always a cheater. And being drunk isn’t an excuse. I don’t feel bad for Jessica. He cheated on her the entire time they dated. I don’t know why she would think giving him an ultimatum to settle down & marry her would change that. He’s a major skeeze and I can’t believe I had a crush on him back in the day. Anyway…let me go listen to some Janet Jackson & Britney Spears while I do my Sunday cleaning. Y’all have a great day! 🙂
The photos paint a certain picture, but the video shows something else entirely. He was disgustingly drunk and I don’t think his costar was cozying up to him at all.
I hadn’t heard anything about the homeless wedding video. A quick google suggests the video was made by a friend without JT’s knowledge (which would make sense for a video shot as a wedding surprise). And his statement of explanation/apology actually seemed reasonable.
I think we can all agree the video sounds disgusting but not sure I can hold that against him. I still think he’s gross though.
How could anyone possibly justify this? Best case scenario, it’s an emotional affair only. I feel like I wouldn’t be able to pretend I wasn’t seeing this.
If it were just the video, I’d say it’s nothing, just a drunk loser getting too handsy with his pretty co-star. But the fact that this man has cheated numerous times makes me think that, if he’s not already cheating, he’s trying desperately to, lmao.
Also, Alisha Wainwright, come on girl. He’s not worth it. Why would you cheat with this soggy mess? Find someone nice who respects you enough not to make you a side piece.
Rumors for years of Jessica being gay with a side piece.
I don’t deny his cheating in the past but he was so, so drunk in the video. There was no way he was getting it up that particular night.
I guess you can say he grabbed her hand or whatever but no one’s forcing her to just lay her hand on his knee like that. Alisha, you know he’s married, why would you behave like this? I have zero respect for women who knowingly sleep with married men. I feel both JT and this woman are trash for what they’re doing.
Must be something wrong with me. I don’t see anything controversial in the video at all. Just co workers hanging out. Alisha got a little comfortable putting hands on his knee. But overall they looks like buddies.
Lainey gossip has the perfect take on this. Some are the cool girl hey there’s no problem here and some are homicidal over the same evidence. Lainey and I would be homicidal but she seems to think Jessica would be the third option – fronts like a cool girl but inside is homicidal.
He was so trashed!!! Sheesh. Honestly he looks a little crabby but she seemed fine, as in she knows he’s trashed and she isn’t all over him. He’s lucky he isn’t my husband!
Resting your hands on a guy’s inner thigh is the 100% sign that you want people to know you’re fucking.
Thank you for highlighting this news item!
Once a cheater, always a cheater. Her hand on his thigh and holding hands under the table are not what “friends” do if one is married.
Yeah sure Jan. I’m sure all of us stroke our co-worker’s thighs and held their hands too. While I do feel sorry for Biel, the anti-vaxx thing kills any sympathy I have towards her.
Remember when JT shaded PRINCE! Prince of all people. JT made fun of Prince being short and then when got called out on it denied it. Karma…
