Justin Month, Day Eight

Cheeky boy. Lord did I love this little stunt, though. ;)

Quebec City by V

Joey had stayed in the car, stretched out on the mustard-yellow backseat, and Justin was beginning to wish he'd joined him.

Okay, so maybe it really was all Justin's fault, because if he hadn't tried kissing Chris, it'd be fine. Because, it was fine after Chris kissed him, but not now, because apparently Justin had done something stupid and didn't know how to make it right again. Come to think of it, he rarely knew how to make things right again, unless he asked Chris. Convenient, that.

This Justin is confused in the very real way of getting kissed by one's best friend out of the blue tends to leave a person. He's also left to puzzle it out for himself, which takes a while because the world doesn't make sense as a one-man affair and certainly not without the person who tilts it just so. This Justin is interesting because he's better as half of a whole even before he's realized that's what he's (practically) always been.

You don't want to hear about my day.

So instead, a brief State of the Fandom.

It seems to have been the day for cheekiness within the pop fandom today. Not that everyone and their dog can't already safely assume that the rumors are true, but Wade. Oh, Wade. *gives him a noogie* It's been fun, having the real story leak in bits and pieces like this.

And then Britney Jean makes me snort orange juice with "I don't think it's cool to [write songs about personal matters] at other people's expense, if you understand what I'm trying to say." Oh, honey. Maybe you shouldn't be a sullen brat about cheating on songwriters. Just a thought.

TRL today. Now, I have absolutely no love for Snoop Dog in any way, personally and what he likes to call "professionally," yet none of this is going to keep Justin from working with him. This saddens me. Why must you make me sad, Timberlake? Have I not been good to you this month?

Dude, blind items totally suck. There's nothing fun about secrets without names attached. It just makes people paranoid or pissed off. If you can't keep it to yourself then at least be shameless about it, yo.

Apparently, JC was again on the Wade Robson Project. This is no time for MTV to curb its 'rerun them to DEATH' tendecies!

In other JC news, this album limbo is becoming positively maddening. "Early 2004" they say? Now, on a rational level, I've heard all the good points that this started out and has been getting done on JC's terms, that marketing it will be difficult to say the least, blah blah blah, take your pick of plausible reasons for these delays which don't change a thing about this sinking feeling in the pit of my belly. But the speculation's even worse - nothing against tavellafic but this prospect is hella depressing and sadly not entirely without merit.

As for the rumored collaboration being with Britney, she's been rumored to be going for something different with this album as well so the whole 'my how they've grown' aspect could work as far as a cross-promotional venture. *shrug* If Britney really is intending to make this album a departure from that dreaded bubblegum (I'm slowly but surely coming to hate that word and the people who slather it on everything as if it were something sensible like sunscreen) category, I honestly don't see anything adverse coming from this venture.

Hm. According to without_me who saw him on Sunset the other day Lance is still The Hottest Goober Ever, I just know that Joey is an absolutely wonderful daddy and has been putting that into practice during the hiatus, Chrissofer is assuredly doing something involving much cooler people than Snoop and blessings to him on whatever that may be.

I've decided I like this pseudo-possible association of BT's tour dates being pushed back because he might be heading out with JC in January the best and will therefore end on that note.
