Timberlake, who has since gone on to forge a successful solo and acting career, was in the pop group many years ago - but thinks his style wasn't quite up to scratch.

He told Details magazine that he ended up being sucked into the "weirdness" of the group. He said:

"There were many moments in my teenage years where I succumbed to, um, the weirdness of the group I was in. And in trying to conform - we're marionettes! - I ended up looking like a moron."

One of Timberlake's style hallmarks was his often bouncy hair - something which eventually got the chop. But it wasn't easy - he said:

"It's scary the first time you do it, because you don't know what's under there - you could have some weird knot - but a shaved head is just so easy."
