Unfortunately, no one ran to see the college kid gambling flick Runner, Runner…
And the movie’s star, Justin Timberlake, is trying to not be a Bitter Betty about the entire situation!
But he is finally speaking out to the journalistic haters of his most recent projects!
In a new interview with GQ, Justin refers to some wicked criticism from both Billboard and Variety on his acting flop and hot hit record, The 20/20 Experience!
JT lashed out at the “trade magazines” for giving him flack about his work, confessing:
“The movie 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 number one album this week, and I shouldn’t have released it? Come on, man. You sound like a dickhead…. It just shocked me because, like, you’re trade magazines.None of your opinions count. And by the way, none of you can do it.”
The Suit & Tie singer also revealed that doing the movie alongside Ben Affleck is not something he regrets—even though it wasn’t a maJOR success!
Hopefully, Mr. Timberlake’s latest foray into acting will be much more of a hit!
He’s starring as a folksy singer in a new Coen brothers movie, Inside Llewyn Davis, and it’s already getting amaze reviews!
Fingers crossed the critics won’t be “d*ckheads” this time around, Justin!
