Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel Visit Villa Borghese
www.celebrity-gossip.netThey’ve been spending the week in the romantic Italian city of Rome, and earlier today Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel took in more beautiful sights.
The “Lovestoned” crooner and his “7th Heaven” hottie headed over to the Villa Borghese, walking hand-in-hand and smiling all the way.
JT sported a half-beard along with a fedora, black henley-style t-shirt, and jeans with sneakers, while Biel rocked a white racerback top with a scarf and a long black skirt.
According to reports, the love-up pair may be closing on a new home when they return to the states. Apparently they’ve found a $2.9 million duplex in Manhattan’s Chelsea district that they’re considering buying together.
The unit boasts a 2,224 square-foot living space with three bedrooms, two baths, 16-foot ceilings, and a sauna.

Justin Timberlake Wows at N.Y.C. Fashion Week Debut
offtherack.peoplestylewatch.com
Justin Timberlake has already conquered music, acting, design — and now he can add New York Fashion Week to his stellar resume. Along with business partner Trace Ayala, the superstar showed the William Rast Spring 2009 collection to a star-studded audience at Roseland Ballroom on Sunday night. Timberlake tells PEOPLE that just the fact that it’s a spring show was more intimidating than showing in N.Y.C. “I would just like to say first of all it’s so hard to put spring fashion shows together. With fall, you can layer everything up.” Ayala adds, “You have to focus on two or three pieces, tops.” Luckily, Timberlake and Ayala had some help — the team collaborated with Johan and Marcella Lindeberg on the designs this season. Timberlake explains, “I was a huge fan of his and I just thought it would be a cool thing if he did something less refined. A little more rugged….Johan loves the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle.” And the crowd — which included Kevin Connolly, Jeremy Piven, Malin Ackerman, Emmanuelle Chriqui and Carla Gugino — definitely approved of the Blackberry Bold-sponsored show, which racheted up the fashion elements of the denim line significantly. Rachel Hunter enthused afterwards to PEOPLE, “I thought it was great. It was cool. I loved the jackets and the fringe. It was a very cool mixture. I think they put a really good look across.” Click here to see all of PEOPLE.com’s N.Y.C. Fashion Week coverage.

Justin Timberlake almost punched
www.news.com.au
JUSTIN Timberlake narrowly missed being punched in the face after a fan sneaked into a VIP area to take his photo. The SexyBack singer - who was celebrating his duet with Beyonce Knowles at the New York Fashion Rocks party earlier on Saturday evening (06.09.08) - was forced to dive for cover when a brawl got out of hand at the city's Rainbow Bar.
His minder had snatched the admirer's camera phone and tried to delete the picture before the woman's friends stepped in to defend her.
Beyonce, her sister Solange and Mariah Carey screamed in terror as champagne glasses were smashed, while Rihanna and Chris Brown tried to avoid the flying glass.
Justin's bodyguard was later thrown out of the club.
A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "It was mayhem. Justin narrowly missed being punched in the face. His minder kicked off, screaming at the girl and snatching the camera off her to delete the picture.
"A huge commotion broke out with the fan's male pals who tried to protect her. Fists were flying and Justin was desperately trying to get out of the way."

www.malefirst.co.uk
Lance Bass’ popularity has become the centre of controversy among cast members on hit U.S. TV show Dancing With The Stars.
The former ’N Sync stars edge as a dancer in 1990s pop group reportedly sent veteran ballroom dancers Cheryl Burke and Julianne Hough into a spin, vying to partner up with the star - who is now teamed up with newcomer Lacey Schwimmer.
A source tells the New York Post, "When Lacey was one of the finalists on the Fox show So You Think You Can Dance, they were all buddy, buddy. But now they totally ignore her because she has the best partner. They won't talk to her."

Joey Fatone To Lance Bass: Don’t Embarrass Me
www.actressarchives.com
Despite having danced together for several years, amidst the impassioned maniacal screams of pre-pubescent girls, in the mega-boy-band N’Sync, “Dancing with the Stars” alumnist Joey Fatone has admonished his former band-mate, Lance Bass, to do well in the televised competition, lest Bass make him look bad.
Fatone related the advice he gave Bass to People Magazine during Sunday night’s TV Guide Emmy afterparty, saying, “Don’t suck, don’t embarrass me, I told him,” adding, “If he embarrasses me, I’ll kick his a**.”
Fatone, a hirsute Brooklyn native, gave the violent ultimatum to the soft-spoken, openly gay Bass, despite the fact Bass has already revealed nervousness in appearing on the show’s 7th season.
“My biggest concern is I just hope it doesn't hurt the gay community in any way,” Bass told E! Online earlier this month, “because, you know, we definitely can be scrutinized and picked apart. I definitely feel a responsibility of making sure I represent well."
Bass also shared his thoughts about dancing with a male partner on the show, which premieres later tonight.
"I think it would be so silly that it would just overshadow everything else going on," Bass told E!, "It would just be like making fun of something. But if it was another show with all guys dancing and all girls dancing, that's a different story. I think that's sexy. I should pitch that."
As far as his dancing abilities go, Bass, who’s evidently no Joey Fatone, added, "The guys always told me how terrible of a dancer I am, so I kind of just wanted to prove to myself that I could learn something crazy. Also my grandmother and mother love the show, so I wanted to do something for them."
“We’ll see [how he does],” Fatone said Sunday night. “I know he’s very nervous about it. He really wants to make sure he leaves a good impression and does really well. It’s all riding on his shoulders in that sense. We’ll see what happens.”
Indeed we will. And since the last thing anyone wants to see is Lance Bass getting his a** kicked, we’ll be rooting for him.

Dancing with the Stars 7: Lance Bass and Lacey Schwimmer
www.buddytv.com/articles
Hm, seems like I'm not a popular person around these parts. Dancing with the Stars fans have been calling for my head on a platter after I deigned to point out Ms. Smirnoff's propensity for rolling her eyes while on camera. (Although, according to a BuddyTV poll, 71 percent of readers agreed that she's a poor sport.) Strangely, nobody has offered their two cents on the Susan Lucci and Tony Dovolani pairing yet, even though I'm pretty sure that Lucci has tons of fans. Well, I suppose that even though her fans are legion, maybe they are not so internet savvy. Let's hope for her sake that they are comfortable with voting by touch-tone phones.
Anyway, as you can see, I am back today with my thoughts on ex-boy bander Lance Bass and So You Think You Can Dance alumna Lacey Schwimmer. Now this is an interesting pair, and I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do on the dance floor.
Lance BassPros: During his days in *NSYNC, Lance Bass has had to shimmy and shake for music videos and concert performances, so he is no stranger to choreography or to the stage. I'm pretty sure that he won't have too much trouble in picking up the moves. Judging from his rehearsal photos, he seems like he's doing a pretty good job with it.
Lance has the advantage of being a man in the competition. Ballroom dancing is all about showcasing the female, and when his female partner happens to be a world-class dancer already, his job is that much easier. Besides, former members of boy bands tend to do well in this competition. Just ask Joey Fatone, Drew Lachey and Joey McIntyre.
Cons: I actually think that Lance is such a strong contender that I'm hard-pressed to come up with any cons about him. I suppose it's all a big crapshoot anyway because half of his fate will be determined by voters. If he doesn't appeal to the home audience in that special way, then people won't vote for him and he'll be out. But, if the competition were based strictly on talent, technique and entertainment value, then I think Lance will do just fine.
Lacey SchwimmerI have to congratulate Lacey Schwimmer for parlaying a fourth place showing on FOX's So You Think You Can Dance into a gig as a professional on Dancing with the Stars. I was really impressed with her skills on So You Think You Can Dance, and I think she has a great personality. However, I get the feeling that some people don't think that she has enough experience to be a pro on Dancing with the Stars. It's true that she does specialize in West Coast swing, but she has also won a national title in Latin as well. I suppose that we'll just have to wait until the show premieres in a few weeks, but I'm cautiously optimistic about how she'll perform on the show.

BAD TIMING FOR TIMBERLAKE ENGAGEMENT, SAYS FATONE
www.contactmusic.comJUSTIN TIMBERLAKE is in no rush to wed girlfriend JESSICA BIEL, according to his former 'N SYNC bandmate JOEY FATONE.
The SexyBack star has been romancing Hollywood actress Biel since early last year (07) when she joined him at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah. But according to Fatone, Timberlake isn't planning to wed Biel in the near future, despite taking their relationship much more seriously than his former flames.
Fatone says: "I think he finally met somebody that he wants to spend the rest of his life. You never know (about an engagement), but I don't know if it's the appropriate time right now. You know what, I think he is just playing it by ear. If it ain't broke don't fix it."
And Biel herself appears to be in no rush to walk down the aisle. Adding to U.S. magazine Us Weekly in a recent interview, she says: "The actual idea of signing those papers and doing all this stuff... I've never been someone who's like, 'I have to, have to, have to have it."
