Justin Timberlake is the consummate mama’s boy. Nothing happens in this 25-year-old’s life without one of the Mommas Timberlake — his actual mom, the deliciously trashy Lynn Harless, and his watchful-eyed grandmother Sadie Bomar — saying it’s cool. Ever since J.T.’s breakup with Cameron Diaz (of whom neither mom nor grandma reportedly approved) Timberlake has been essentially dating his mother, throwing her a lavish birthday bash in Las Vegas, taking her to premiers and apparently introducing her to potential new girlfriend Scarlett Johansson (who is said to have gotten the thumbs up). And today we learn that the approval of Grandma Timberlake — a woman who, when Britney publicly defamed Justin’s penis, apparently assured the world that her boy is well endowed — is all that’s keeping Justin from accepting a modeling contract with Calvin Klein. That’s power.
Witnessing the full extent of the Timberlake women’s influence, we can’t help but think about all the moments in which we wish they’d intervened. There was the notorious double denim fashion disaster, the dating Fergie thing and we have to wonder if Justin got both mom’s full permission to bring sexy back.
Today’s news that Timberlake is planning to produce a track by former bandmate JC Chazes doesn’t fill us with confidence in the ability of Mothers Timberlake to watch out for JT’s best interests. We know they both want him back with Britney, but what else should Justin Timberlake’s mom’s order him to do?
