Brit Rockers Attack Timberlake: 'a Midget With Whiskers'...

[Retro]

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=+2]KASABIAN ATTACK 'MIDGET' TIMBERLAKE [/SIZE][/FONT]

British rockers KASABIAN have launched a blistering tirade against JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, branding the heart-throb a "midget" and a "puppet". The astonishing attack comes as the EMPIRE four-piece are riding high in the UK charts with their number one album, and Timberlake is about to top the singles charts with his comeback track SEXYBACK. Lead singer Tom Meighan says, "He's a midget with whiskers who is just trying to be black. He's a puppet in a million-dollar suit who's had his strings cut off. "It's just money music. Absolute rubbish. You can smell the money coming off it. He's a k**bhead." Bassist Chris Edwards adds, "Sexyback? More like hairy back. It's the worst title of any record I've ever heard!"

Go Kasabian Go

As much as I love to rag on Timberlake (he is a money-hungery obnoxious jerk who tries to act black) .....I'd be surprised if he even knew who these Kasabian guys are

Well, if he doesn't then he's even bigger than I thought he was.

i agree that justin is in it for the money. he has barely any talent and relies fully on producers to create his inane tracks. plus, he is not attractive, in my opinion (i don't like feminine men).
however, i don't see any reason to attack him by calling him a midget (he is 6'1", and even if he were short, why does height matter?) or calling him someone "who is trying to be black," as if being black is a bad thing.

so f**k kasabian. no one asked you for your opinion.

 

[KhaoticKharma]

Timberlakes sucks, but so does Kasabian

 

[MulletProof]

yeah. the pot calling the kettle black.

 

[Heroin_Chic]

They`re just jealous & rude

I don't think anyone can say that he barely has any talent...as for this band, they are just jealous...that's all

 

[tifa]

As if Kasabian can talk, their entire career is ripping off Primal Scream. Badly.

 

[cosmogrl5]

I always thought Justin could resemble a ferret or something, but....he is one heck of a talented guy. I absolutely love his new CD.

 

[viva_la_vogue]

Word.

 

[cosmogrl5]

Now that I think about it...this could be negative karma coming back to get JT for what he said about Taylor Hicks!

 

[Zen]

How funny.....but so true. Timberlake is so plastic......and he's very annoying! I can't wait for him to come out of the closet.

 

[VainJane]

or calling him someone "who is trying to be black," as if being black is a bad thing.

They (and I) don't mean that as a negative thing towards black people; it means that he's trying to act like he's black when it's quite obvious that he isn't.

It's like Madonna talking with a British accent.....it's just horrible to watch.

 

[fashionicon]

Who? Never heard of Kasabian. Maybe I'm just out of the loop.

however, i don't see any reason to attack him by calling him a midget (he is 6'1".....)

Agreed. It makes no sense that they're calling him a midget. And what's with the tasteless jokes- "Sexyback more like hairy back". Yeah, not funny and again, it makes NO SENSE! Do they even know who Justin Timberlake is? Obviously they've never seen him before.

Sounds like a ploy to cause controversey to me.

 

[shoe_addict]

Ouch! That is one harsh comment!

 

[MyNameIs]

LOL, I don't think they mean midget in literal terms. I think it's about his talent or lack of, they probably say he's a midget when it comes to making music, aka not good.

I kinda like some music on Timberlake's new album, but not because of him. The beats are good and lyrics are cool, none of which can be attributed to Timberlake. As for Justin himself, I agree with them. I don't think he's talented, and I hate how he's trying to be this tough guy, and then that high pitch voice. And yeah, I dislike him.

 

[Spike413]

As much as I dislike him, I have to say that their tactless and childish insults make me like them far less than Timberlake.

Besides, he started young trying to become a singer so I doubt he's only in it for money.

I have to agree.
