Justin Timberlake turns 32 on Thursday, and he has plenty of cause for celebration.
Since bursting onto the scene with his N’SYNC bandmates in 1998, the actor-musician has tried his hand at everything from music and movies to fashion and food (he’s the proud owner of the NYC-based restaurant, Southern Hospitality).
And throughout these past 12 months, Timberlake added one more title to his name: married man.
Yup, ladies — JT officially left the market in October 2012, when he tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend Jessica Biel.
With a ring on his finger and a leave of absence from the recording studio, Timberlake made his way to the big screen, starring in The Social Network, Friends with Benefits, Bad Teacher and Trouble with the Curve.
But he couldn’t leave behind his musical roots forever. Earlier this month, the Grammy winner debuted “Suit & Tie,” his first single in nearly seven years, along with plans to release his upcoming album the 20/20 Experience, which hits stores on March 19. Topping off his much-anticipated comeback, Timberlake will hit the stage during Super Bowl weekend in New Orleans, after four years out of the concert circuit.
“Suit and Tie” already has some record-setting credentials to its name, and not to mention, a vocal cameo from a revered musician in his own right: Jay-Z.
From Christina Aguilera to Beyonce (and yes, even Ryan Gosling), the rap superstar joins an impressive list of famous faces who have collaborated with Timberlake over the years.
Jay-Z isn’t the only famous friend helping Timberlake out: Bey is reportedly set to reunite with JT for a song on his new album; they’d previously collaborated on “Until the End of Time” from Timberlake’s smash 2006 album, FutureSex/LoveSounds.
Whether he was goofing off with Andy Samberg on Saturday Night Live or bringing the beats with T.I., one thing’s for sure: Timberlake has brought a whole new meaning to the word “teamwork” in Hollywood.
