Justin Timberlake was named GQ’s Man of the Year 2013.
Justin Timberlake is a fashion icon, a respected actor, and a best-selling musician, but still, he told the December issue of GQ, he doesn’t feel cool.
“Listen, I’m not cool,” Timberlake insisted. “Being cool is about keeping your blood pressure steady. So no, don’t be cool. Be passionate. Be dedicated. Be tenacious. Be uncompromising. Be pissed. Be happy. Be sad.”

‘Listen, I’m not cool,’ Timberlake said, though he won this year’s accolade.

“I’ve made a career out of doing things I should not be doing. I wasn’t cool about it,” the singer continued. “Because being cool would have meant I passed up on those opportunities. If you do that, it’s because you’re afraid. And what are you afraid of, you know?”

The 32-year-old Tennessee native also opened up about his critics, particularly the lackluster reviews of his movie “Runner Runner.”

Matthew McConaughey also made the list of Men of the Year.
“The movie didn’t do well at the box office, so I should quit?” Timberlake said. “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 d–khead…None of your opinions count. And by the way, none of you can do it.”
Timberlake is readying for the release of the new Coen brothers movie “Inside Llewyn Davis,” in which he plays a folk singer.

The late James Gandolfini was also named Man of the Year.

“You do a Coens movie, and secretly you’re like, ‘All I want to do is make people laugh in the movie. If I can make people laugh in this movie, then I don’t care. Whatever else happens happens,’” Timberlake said.

And apparently he was successful, according to a screening at the Cannes Film Festival. “People were laughing out loud, and it was like that first drink of warm tea-or that first cold drink of beer, or that first hit off a joint. You’re just like, ‘Yeah, everything’s going to be all right.’”
