| TORONTO — In perhaps his most memorable cameo since donning a furry dolphin suit at a Flaming Lips performance, Justin Timberlake joined Mick Jagger and the rest of the Rolling Stones onstage during the veteran rock band's set at the concert for Toronto on Wednesday night.
The afternoon kicked off on a low point for Timberlake when a concertgoer's sign questioning the singer's sexuality made it to the jumbotrons for about 15 seconds. Timberlake took to the stage with an obvious awareness of audience cynicism, beginning his set with a small attempt to mitigate the crowd's frustration: "This will be over before you know it."
During his mini-set of "Cry Me a River," "Senorita" and "Rock Your Body," Justin gracefully dodged water bottles flung by anti-pop audience members, and winced slightly at their less than playful jeers. After quietly thanking the city of Toronto for generally being welcoming to him and his tour crew, Timberlake left the stage to make way for more crowd-pleasing acts including the Guess Who, Rush, AC/DC and headliners the Rolling Stones.
Justin got his sweet revenge, though, when Jagger invited him onstage for what appeared to be an unrehearsed performance of "Miss You," in which Timberlake mimicked Jagger's signature sways and echoed his vocals. In a clearly forced but effective fusion of classic rock and bubblegum pop, Jagger even sang the words "cry me a river" for several repetitions with Timberlake. And though the audience still managed to sling a few bottles Timberlake's way, guitarist Keith Richards exhibited remarkable tenacity, as he angrily motioned to the crowd to show the pop star a little respect.
Timberlake hugged Jagger and thanked each Rolling Stone by his first name, then humbly (or perhaps strategically) made a quick exit. |

| Actually he played a short 6 song set earlier in the show for some reason. WHY they even let that idiot into a place that has AC/DC AND the Rolling Stones on the bill is a complete fucking mystery. |

| even though he didnt exactly fit into the line up people could at least respect him for doing what he loves even if that is not their preference. |
|
Coolness: 686310
| Yeah, I supose that if you really love being a corporate tool with not enough talent to write any of your own music and are so inept you need dance coordinators to learn to dance and actually spend more of your time lip-synching because the dancing makes you too out of breath to "sing", which you can't even do on key and you have a team of people running Antares Autotune as a DSP effect to make sure your voice is on key, then yeah.
More power to you. |

|
Coolness: 686310
| well, see, I've never seen his dancing, but he's like, ex nsync or ex backdoor boys, right? Those guys have dance coordinators because they can't do it all on their own. |
