He has entered his thirty something era a well-heeled Disney survivor. With a long list of celebrity exes starting with former Disney princess Britney Spears, dallying along the way with older woman Cameron Diaz, and just recently breaking up with movie star Jessica Biel, Justin Timberlake is talented, well liked in Hollywood social circles, and emotionally cautious about who he trusts in the media. So, knowing that Justin Timberlake is one of the biggest teen scene celebrities to grow up without deep emotional scars from early fame, will his young music follower Justin Bieber look to Justin Timberlake as a role model for the future?

Daily Mail shared, “As a former teen star and boy-band member you would think Justin Timberlake would have empathy for a performer such as Justin Bieber… Well, apparently not… The singer turned actor made a joke at the 17-year-old Baby singer’s expense last week during a skit on his recent appearance on Saturday Night Live.” See the Justin Timberlake spoof of Justin Bieber on SNL here.
