NEW YORK -

Justin Timberlake blames celebrity magazines for turning his personal life into juicy gossip fodder. "I despise what they do," the 26-year-old singer tells Details magazine in an interview in its April issue. "They create soap operas out of people's lives. ... It's a spin game, and I choose not to take part in it."

That includes not dishing any dirt about former girlfriends

Britney Spears and Cameron Diaz.

"I would never say anything bad about anyone. I love a lot of those people," says Timberlake, whose latest album is "FutureSex/LoveSounds."

Diaz and Timberlake, who had dated since 2003, confirmed their split in January. Timberlake's relationship with Spears ended in 2002. They were a high-profile couple for three years.

Timberlake, a former member of boy band 'N Sync, released his debut solo album, "Justified," in 2002. The album won a Grammy Award.

"I tried so hard to be an R&B artist and it was the pop album of the year. ... That's the last thing I wanted," Timberlake says. "But I was like, `So everyone considers me a pop artist? ... I'm going to do whatever I want to do.'"

Timberlake took home a trophy as favorite male singer Saturday night in the raucous, slime-drenched 20th Annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards on Viacom International Inc.'s Nickelodeon channel.

The show began with Timberlake descending from the ceiling on a large orange Nickelodeon blimp and breaking into a Broadway show tune in which he taunted the audience, saying he was too famous to be slimed.

"You'll never get a drop of slime on old J.T.," he sang.

By the end of the song, of course, he had been drenched in the green goo.

I thought Justin was supposedly "The New King of Pop"? At least that's what several magazines including Rolling Stone are saying, so he has to live up to the title. He better be around in 5 years or else!

He is very lucky that Neptunes made his first album, and Timbaland made his second one.

I don't know who will make his next album?

If he's so fed up with gossip magazines,he should do himself a favor and get out of the music business Considering that he's a fake,wannabee "artist" with limited talents,he should be grateful that these gossip mags are writing about him at all.He's such a whiny,punk ass idiot.

Vanity and Prince....

If you want to be the new king of pop, you've got to be in for the whole ride. You can't just enjoy the fame and success. You've got to cop the BS as well. It's his fault. He wanted to be like his hero Michael Jackson. So cop it you cunt!
