And Finally
Timberlake not sorry for sweary show
By Chris Cooke | Published on Wednesday 27 February 2013
If you were offended when Justin Timberlake swore at you from the stage of London’s Forum last week at his late-night post-BRITs gig, well you can fuck off can’t you?
Asked about the bad language, the one time boy band boy told Capital FM (again): “I swore a lot, every club show we do is age appropriate… I’m 32 years old, sweetheart, nobody’s going to tell me anything… it’s all in good fun”.
Just to reiterate, Justin Timberlake said the words: “I’m 32 years old, sweetheart, nobody’s going to tell me anything”.
He added: “This is my analogy, it’s like dressing for the weather. If you are going to play at The Forum, it’s a proper rock n roll venue… I’m not a rock n roll star but we’re gonna put on my version of a rock n roll show. And it’s eighteen [years] and up”.
Though Justin mate, I wouldn’t worry about swearing in front of the kids. Just ask that veteran rock n roller Pete Townshend – the way you do it is say you’re not going to swear as you berate the child for taking an interest in your music, and then you mouth your curse words of choice anyway.
