What Exactly Is Justin Timberlake Planning to Do With MySpace?

Johnny Wright, Justin Timberlake’s well-traveled manager, has explained just what Justin Timberlake’s intentions might be with MySpace. And it has to do with music! Although not, unfortunately, JT’s music. Says Wright: “Whether it becomes a talent competition or something like that, those are things that we will still flesh out … We definitely want to bring the industry back to Myspace to really look at the talented people that have put their faces there.” Also, Justin has a bunch of great ideas, as evidenced by the fact that he recently sent Wright an e-mail which read in part, “Are you up? My mind is going dizzy with ideas. I need to talk.” More important: Further revelations will come in an August 17 press conference. Until then, MySpace will continue to, just like, you know, hang out. [THR]
