Justin Timberlake Tells Playboy He Smokes Pot

Justin Timberlake is featured in the interview section of the July issue of Playboy Magazine and in it he gives an in dept interview about his life, which includes smoking a ton of weed.

Justin also discusses his music career, which he says he hasn’t got any music in the pipeline despite not releasing anything since his 2006 ht album FutureSex/LoveSounds, as well as that the former *NSync star also talks about the many women he has been linked to since splitting up with Jessica Biel which Olivia Wilde, Ashley Olsen and Mila Kunis. Here is part of the interview:

On smoking pot: “Absolutely [I’m a pot smoker]…The only thing pot does for me is it gets me to stop thinking. Sometimes I have a brain that needs to be turned off. Some people are just better high.”

On his sex scene with Mila Kunis: “I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t completely awkward. I couldn’t tell you the number of people in the crew watching me and my bare a*s, but it was a lot. The producers and I agreed we would shoot a big chunk of the movie before we got down to the sex scenes, which was a good idea. That allowed Mila and me time to get comfortable…Most of the sex scenes are actually played for laughs, and she’s such a gifted comedian…a lot of the time it was just me making a fool of myself. You can’t be shy with comedy even when you’re standing there naked.”

On if he has had any friends with benefits: “I don’t think I’ve ever had that type of relationship. I get hooked on every level when I get close to someone. If you build enough chemistry to want to be intimate like that, someone’s going to catch feelings, and usually it happens quickly.”

On his former Mickey Mouse Club castmates: “What’s funny is I didn’t know at the time that the people around me would go on to so many great things. The exception was Christina Aguilera. She was the prodigy. She could sing better than the adults who had huge deals at the time. We always felt she was going to become Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey…I still love to see people from those days making good on their talent. It’s a special connection.”

On making new music: “I don’t have a single song ready to go. People keep asking me when a new song or album is coming out, and I don’t know what to say. Music is not my focus right now. It may be someday. It could happen next month or next year but right now it’s not where it’s at for me. Unfortunately, the business of music is what taints an artist’s desire to make music…I love making music. I honestly love it. But there is a level where making music becomes a total life-s*cking commitment. For instance, to do an album and a tour, you have to be absolutely certain that whatever you have to say is from the heart, because you’re going to say it a thousand times – and on nights when you don’t feel like performing. You need to feel inspiration to get to a level where you’re performing like that. But I haven’t felt that level of conviction the past few years. And without that conviction it’s crazy to put yourself out there.”

On why he dates women in the industry: “You probably gravitate toward people who understand your scenario. At the end of the day you just want someone who gets you, who can be a friend. That’s kind of the point of Friends with Benefits. As corny as it sounds, the ‘friends’ part counts just as much as the ‘benefits’ part, if not more.”

I’m not going to lie I’ve always wanted to have the life of Justin Timberlake. He has it pretty good doesn’t he? Between hooking up with the hottest women and smoking a ton of weed. Yeah I’d definitely change shoes with him if I had the opportunity. The full interview is available at Playboy‘s website or you can buy it when it hits newsstands on Friday.
