Justin Timberlake has spoken out brutally honestly (maybe slightly too brutally - we're a bit scared) about the somewhat negative critical response his last album and film had, saying he 'wants to fucking kill everybody'.
Speaking to GQ, in what we can imagine must have been a slightly awkward interview, the usually composed R&B superstar went on an expletive-laden rant about the chilly reception he's had in response to his latest work and the 20/20 Experience series of albums.
"I find it ironic that I’m doing an interview with you about Man of the Year when I feel - literally -like a bunch of people just took a shit on my face," he said.

Speaking about his latest film, Runner Runner, which didn't exactly set the world alight, he said: "[Runner Runner] didn’t do well at the box office, so I should quit? Hold on a second. If I was somebody else, you wouldn’t have said that. I have the No.1 album this week, and I shouldn’t have released it? Come on, man. You sound like a dickhead..."
He continued: "It just shocked me because, like, you’re trade is magazines. None of your opinions count. And by the way, none of you can do it."
The singer, who released fourth album The 20/20 Experience - 2 of 2 in September, also revealed he sometimes wants to "fucking kill everybody" in this business. May we be so bold as to suggest some therapy?
It sounds like Timberlake is going a bit Jack Torrance in The Shining on us. We hope Jessica Biel's not too frightened. Also, sorry Justin, but we did hear Runner Runner was crap.
