Justin Timberlake Hints at New Nike Collab
Plus collaborating with Timbaland, Beyoncé and more.
Justin Timberlake is the latest celebrity to take on the notorious Hot Ones challenge for the show’s Season 11 finale.
Facing off with host Sean Evans, the singer/songwriter reminisces about Memphis’s BBQ scene, collaborating with heavy hitters Timbaland and The Neptunes on his album FutureSex/LoveSounds, and co-producing Beyoncé’s ”Partition.” About a third of the way into the segment, he talks about his Jordan 3 “JTH” sneaker which was released in conjunction with his Man of the Woods album. Personally ranked as one of his highest creative achievements, he shares what the ideation process with Tinker Hatfield was like and hints that there may be one or two possible sneaker collaborations in the works with Nike. The interview goes on to discuss JT’s multiple guest appearances on Saturday Night Live, his unexpected friendship with Marilyn Manson and a look back at his discography — all while struggling through a succession of spicy wings.
Timberlake recently served as the executive music producer for the Trolls World Tour soundtrack and teamed up with Anderson .Paak and Anna Kendrick for the “Don’t Slack” music video.
