Justin Timberlake Claims He’s a Pothead [VIDEO]

In a new "Playboy" interview, Justin was asked if he partakes.  He said, quote, "Absolutely.  The only thing pot does for me is it gets me to stop thinking.  Sometimes I have a brain that needs to be turned off.  Some people are just better high."

Justin also admits that there were ladies during the N' SYNC days but not as many as you might think. He says, quote, "I hate to disappoint you, but I was the youngest one in the group, so the other guys were getting more of that [girl] action, and they were protective of me. "But yeah, the girl stuff definitely was a heavy part of it, and it would play with your mind.  I remember looking down once, we were playing Madison Square Garden for an HBO special, and this girl put her arm out. She had a mural of me tattooed along her whole arm.  I just remember looking at it and thinking, 'Holy [crap], that's never going to come off.'

None of that surprises me, but the pothead thing is definitely a twist. Not that he hasn't made some truly funky music. I just never would have thought it was weed inspired. You learn something new every day don't you? So let's look back at some of JT's biggest songs and see if we can hear the pot in 'em.

I'll start with "Sexyback"

I can hear it. What about "Lovestoned"...It's got it in the name right?

Then there's the video for "Rock Your Body" which features nothing but them dancing in a giant room full of multi-colored lights.

What about Timberlake and Timbaland "Carry Out?" It's kinda about a lot of fast food right? At least sort of.

What about N'SYNC? "Bye Bye Bye"

NO! Obviously it was just him solo.
