JT dishes on fame and his burden of talent in the new issue of Details magazine.
On the tabloids:
“I despise what they do. They create soap operas out of people’s lives. [Cameron and I] had our thing, and it’s over. They edit that stuff like MTV edits reality shows. It’s a spin game, and I choose not to take part in it.”
On being considered the New King of Pop:
“I tried so hard to be an R&B artist [with first solo album Justified] and it was the pop album of the year, and I was like, ‘F***. That’s the last thing I wanted but I was like, ‘So everyone considers me a pop artist? Well, fuck it. I’m going to do whatever I want to do.”
On surviving the boy-band apocalypse and becoming a man:
“I could give you a bunch of analogies about why I’m still around that would sound like hippie self-help bullshit. ‘I saw an opportunity and I took it?’ Fuck you.Sure, there’s a lot of luck involved. But on some level I have to believe in my ability. And I’m not apologizing to anyone. I worked fucking hard to get here.”
On being used by the Grammys for ratings:
“I’m the nice guy who follows through on the things he commits to. But I don’t know if I’ll be going through that sort of thing again. I feel like the Grammys used me for ratings. And look at it-they were up 18 percent.”
Justin’s so humble, it’s charming.

You can catch the entire interview at Details. I can’t wait to read it. Looks real interesting from the parts that I skimmed. Details
Before Joel Madden dumped Hilary Duff over her abstinence until marriage deal, and before he began bumping pelvises with Nicole Richie, he was livin’ “like a rockstar.”
Good Charlotte frontman Joel Madden recalls,
“Back when we were on our first tour,
you’d always meet some hot girl at the show and would have six hours to kill, so you end up going to her house. But you don’t know she has a boyfriend. You end up hiding in the closet when he comes home. There were plenty of those (incidents).
“There was never a time when I actually got chased down by a boyfriend… I just had to wait until the girl got him out. I would be sitting in the closet, sweating bullets for, like, an hour.”
I’m sure he was sweatin’ bullets, Joel’s barely over 5 feet tall. He also says Nicole’s bones keep him satisfied and he’s no longer hunting around for a girl to get him off whenever he feels like it.
He explains,
“Sometimes a girl will come on the bus and she’ll be like, ‘Oh, this is not what I was looking for. I was kind of hoping for drunken nudity and stuff.’ We disappoint a lot of people.”
Everything’s tame now? Slut, please! Every guy in a band claims he’s monogamous. John Mayer brought Jessica along on tour at the request of Papa Joe to prove it. Until Madden takes Bones with him, he’s cheating like Tommy Lee.

Britney and Federsperm are getting along again too.
Sources say Britney and soon-to-be ex Kevin Federline had an “amazing meeting” on Sunday. They are not only getting along, they are hammering out the terms of custody.
When Britney gets out, she and Kevin have agreed to a 50/50 split with physical custody of their two children. The plan is for Britney to eventually gain primary custody and Kevin will have visitation.
Sucks! I totally thought Federsperm was a money-grubbing a-hole, and that’s the story I wanna work with.
Sources are saying Britney has “literally turned her life around” and she’s doing much better. I’m guessing that means she’s sporting better wigs and she’ll be back at Hyde next week instead of a month from now. Rehab worked for Lindsay. And rehab worked for Britney!

Usher attended a recent Cavaliers game wearing Justin Guarini’s pubic hair on his scalp. He also appears to be groping some imaginary tits as he smiles from ear to ear.

Victoria Beckaham stunned fellow first class passengers on a flight from LA to London last month when she refused all offers of food and opted for peppermint tea instead.
Stewards and stewardesses fussed around the singer, but she had few diva-like requests - and even brought her own teabags for the 11-hour flight.
One fellow passenger says,
“She was very pleasant and she’s really very pretty in person but she’s very thin.“If you can go for 11 hours on nothing but peppermint tea, it’s little wonder she’s so skinny.”
Why was anyone surprised? Posh probably weighs 97 pounds. Peeps need to stop being so effing nosy! Can’t a ho have an eating disorder without wandering eyes/surveillance? Geez. She probably pissed like 20 times during that flight. Tea goes right thru you like beer.

Excerpts:
“I guess at this time in my life, I’m just sort of living day by day,” she says with a shrug.
“I don’t know. You can have ideas of what you think things are going to be and what your life is going to be, and sometimes it changes. You can’t plan everything. Life just tells you that.
The universe constantly reminds you that you’re not in control. You’re not in charge of the world! What a revelation!
“I’m a very open person, but I don’t think there’s one sentence that can sum up an experience. I think any life-changing experience sort of demands evaluation, really looking at yourself and your life. And it’s still a situation that’s not that far away.”
