Justin Timberlake won two ASCAP Pop Music Awards on Wednesday night, for writing the songs “My Love” and “Until the End of Time”, a duet with Beyoncé.
At the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers held their 25th annual award ceremony and honored the former ‘N Sync singer as well as other band members-gone-solo: the Black Eyed Peas’ Fergie and No Doubt’s Gwen Stefani, who both won Song of the Year, for “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “The Sweet Escape”, respectively.
Justin Timberlake’s awards supplement a long list of accolades the 27-year-old has amassed. Since 2002, he’s won six Grammys, and has been nominated for 16 – twice as many nods as when he was with N’Sync.
Timberlake also won three American Music Awards and two World Music Awards, Video Music Awards and even an Emmy, in 2007. Timberlake’s “Saturday Night Live” skit entitled “Dick in a Box” won him the prize for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics.
Is there any award Justin Timberlake hasn’t won?
Well, there’s still the granddaddy of all golden statues – the Oscar.
Seems laughable now, with his wannabe tough-guy appearances in forgettable films like Alpha Dog and Black Snake Moan. But JT’s shtick on “SNL” and vocal work on Shrek the Third may lead him to his true cinematic calling – comedy.
This summer, he’ll play a sleazy French Canadian hockey player in The Love Guru. And Timberlake is “hilarious” according to the film’s star Mike Myers. “Justin Timberlake is the single most talented human being I've ever met in my life,” Myers told MTV, “and it sickens me.”
If all this so-called sickening behavior continues, Justin Timberlake better make more room in his trophy case.
