“I want to make Justin Timberlake and Anthony Mackie fight it out for the honor of being my date. I’m just going to throw them in the ring and make them do it!”

— Gabourey Sidibe in an interview with a Canadian talk show. When asked whom she’d pick if she had to choose between them, she replied: “Justin, if you’re not doing anything on that night, maybe you could be my date or something. It’s fine. No pressure!”  [via NY Daily News]

Seriously, Justin, go to the Oscars with the girl—she’s nominated for best actress! Not gonna happen probably ever for Jessica Biel. In fact, Frisky readers, let’s start a Twitter trend—please tweet #justinescortgabby and let’s see if we can help get the word out. This is activism at its most well-meaning yet shallow.

Justin Timberlake needed an awfully big slab of cardboard when he sang “Dick In A Box” on “SNL.” But here he is, sans recyclable paper products, showing you what he’s working with. That’s right, nothin’ but pants and a boner, in slow motion. You’ll be screaming “Tiiiimmmmber!” because it’s straight-up wood. Just like we promised back when we reported on “Rock Star Penis Size,” feast your eyes on just how JT can stick the sexy in your back. [WOW Report]

“The way I feel about the Golden Globe nomination versus Justin Timberlake announcing it ... it’s like the nomination is That’s How I Roll from Cold Stone Creamery and Justin saying my name is like cherries on top of That’s How I Roll from Cold Stone Creamery.”

As the decade nears its end, one thing that will be missed is the music. Remember those albums we left on repeat because they really were worth listening to? From the catchy dance tracks to the political rock records that defined the 2000s, we saw artists like Justin Timberlake and Amy Winehouse grow up and deliver pinnacle records we never saw coming. When it came to the Top 40 set, this was a great time to love music. Here are our picks for the Top 10 Pop albums of the ‘00s. Read more ...

• Rihanna is rumored to have tracked down Jessica Biel‘s phone number in order to tell the actress that she is not with Justin Timberlake. [Your Tango]—At least not yet, she isn’t. Nah, but seriously, Rihanna is that fierce bitch that would cut you at a party and keep dancing while you bled, but not on her Louboutins.
• PopEater has scored an exclusive interview with Jon Gosselin, so who needs tabloids? [PopEater]—He brags about all the paparazzi that followed him in Reading, PA, and Los Angeles. That’s classic Jon.
• Soulja Boy was arrested in Atlanta for obstruction when he returned to an abandoned house where he and his friends had been hanging to get his white Range Rover. He reportedly tried to convince officers that the fleeing group of juveniles were there to film a video. [E! Online]—He tried to tell ‘em, but they wouldn’t listen.

• Justin Timberlake‘s grandmother, Sadie Bomar, said he never wanted to marry Jessica Biel and, as far as his family was concerned, he was single. [NYDailyNews.com]—She was only a rebound girlfriend that lasted longer than usual, in my opinion.
• Heidi Klum has reportedly filed papers to change her last name to Samuel, Seal’s last name. [One India]—Seal has a last name?!
• Brad Pitt supposedly had another “secret meeting” with Jennifer Aniston because he wanted to discuss his relationship with Angelina Jolie [Daily Mail]—Jen asked to be their new adoptee but was quickly turned down.

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are reportedly donezo. Though nothing has been officially confirmed and the couple was seen together earlier this week, it would be a slightly shocking breakup, mostly for the alleged claim that Rihanna is JT’s other woman. After three years of on-again, off-again for Jessica and Justin, all it took was some sightings with the feisty singer to launch a truckload of rumors. [Terra] Though they might not be over IRL, it reminded us of some other shocking celebrity breakups!

Another week, another Wednesday. This one, just like all the others before, is full of wonderment and speculation. That’s right. It’s tabloid time! The personal lives of celebrities have been reduced to poignant blurbs and glossy cover lines. We’ve read through all the magical pages of our favorite smack-talking ‘bloids and plum-picked the most interesting tidbits. Now if only they were all true. Enjoy!

Sure Jessica Biel may come off a touch prissy, but she’s got a pretty rugged plan for January—she has signed on to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa. Why? For clean water—and not just because she might get really thirsty during the 19,000-foot hike. Biel is braving the treacherous peak as part of the Summit on the Summit expedition. Singer and producer Kenna organized the group in honor of his father who suffered diseases from drinking unclean water as a child growing up in Ethiopia. Biel believes that access to clean water is “a basic human necessity that needs to be addressed now” and is honored to be climbing Kilimanjaro with the team to help raise awareness and hopefully some dough. So I’m sure you’re all wondering what I’m wondering…is Justin Timberlake joining her? It’s not confirmed, but in a recent issue of GQ he said he was preparing for a major mountain climb. Translation: following Jess’ bum up Mount Kili. [Pop Eater]

• A 19-pound baby was born in Indonesia. So glad it did not pop out of my vagina. [Babble]
• Justin Timberlake has been cast as Facebook founding president Sean Parker in the movie about the making of the social networking site. [Gawker]
• 10 Spanking Tips. Do I really need to say anything more? [Em & Lo]

How retro. The FCC has proclaimed that it would like to “further investigate” Nipplegate, i.e., the moment in 2004 when Justin Timberlake pulled at Janet Jackson‘s costume during the Super Bowl halftime show, baring her pierced nipple and traumatizing children for years, even though a commercial for Viagra that made reference to a “four-hour erection” aired during the same program and apparently had no adverse effect. The FCC has brought their complaint all the way up to the Third District Appeals Court, hoping that the case can be reopened. “The evidence in this case strongly suggests that CBS had access to video delay technology at the time of the 2004 Super Bowl,” the FCC said. In other words, they think the nip slip was “willfull.” Really? Does anyone still care about this? And doesn’t our government have better things to be spending its time on? [Gawker]

• Beloved director John Hughes died today at the age of 59 from a heart attack. John delighted audiences young and old with movie classics – “Sixteen Candles,” “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” “Pretty In Pink,” and “The Breakfast Club.” Thanks for all the good times John, we won’t forget about you. [Chicago Tribune]
• Justin Timberlake’s new Givenchy cologne ads are set to come out next month in the September issue of several magazines. Even though JT is the face of the cologne “Play,” the sexy singer recently told People that his favorite scent is just “a person’s skin”. [People] – I’d be happy to let Justin smell my perfume.
• Jennifer Aniston won an iParenting Award for narrating a children’s book with her father. Loukoumi’s Good Deeds was granted the media award in the “Outstanding” category. [Us Magazine] – Congrats Jen, but still confused that a single, childless actress won an award for parenting.

So, of course, being invited to join the CFDA, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, is the highest honor an American designer can achieve. Oddly enough, William Rast, Justin Timberlake’s clothing line, and The Row, from Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, have both been inducted to the council. Is anyone else uber confused? We sorta get the Olsens. After all, their clothing line has been gaining lots of buzz since it first debuted, and the fashion set loves it for being well-made and well-designed, if a little pricey. But William Rast? What’s to love? It’s primarily known for producing denim. We need answers, and we need them now! If not, we’d at least like a CFDA invitation ourselves since it looks like anyone with a needle and thread can join. Sorry, but we had to take it there! [CFDA]

Just like middle-aged actresses must feel threatened when they're upstaged by ingenues, famous heartthrobs notice when hot younguns infiltrate the Hollywood scene, too. Perhaps no new face is getting more attention than Robert Pattinson, and Justin Timberlake admits he kind of knocks him out of the ballpark. In a Twitter exchange with his GF Jessica Biel, who asked him, "Why aren't you sexy like Robert Pattinson?" he responded, "Because God loved him more than me." Grain of salt, grain of salt. (Though it begs the question: If you're a celeb in a relationship, wouldn't you rather flirt via text rather than Twitter!? Privacy much?) But moving on to more important asks, which of these famously hot dudes does it for you? Are you still feeling JT? Or if you were in junior high, would an RPatz poster now be in your locker? [E! Online]

Ugh, I am actually a fan of Justin Timberlake so it broke my heart to hear that NYC lit agent David Vigliano is shopping around Timberlake’s golf memoir proposal. Maybe it’s just the die hard golfer in me, since I loved him being a singer, dancer, fashion designer and even enviro-friendly golf course owner, but this makes no sense. Why? It’s true he did play golf all through high school and I know he made the pro-am (pro-amateur) celebrity golf tournament circuits, but from what I understand from those who know better is that he isn’t exactly an avid golfer. Back in the day one of my friends was partnered in a round with him and decided that he was more interested in signing autographs than playing ball. Can’t Justin just write about his rise to fame like Vigliano’s past successful book deals with Shannon Doherty and Clay Aiken? Oh well, let’s hope I’m pleasantly surprised. [Um, for all us non-golfers out there, and we are many(!), does this sound like the most boring book he could possibly write or… ?—Editor] [Observer]
