Actor and singer Justin Timberlake has admitted that while filming scenes for his new movie he had a near-death experience and was saved by one of his co-stars.

Speaking about his new film 'Trouble With The Curve', the superstar explained that he had to spend time in a frozen lake and became unresponsive after "turning blue", but luckily actress Amy Adams was on hand to bring him back to consciousness with a kiss:

"We shot the scene in the Blue Ridge Mountains and the water was just below fifty degrees. It was freezing. Amy actually saved my life. Unbeknownst to me, I was turning blue and couldn't process a thought, so she actually saved my life. I owe Amy Adams my life."

Adams, meanwhile, was quick to dispell any suggestions of heroism and added: "Some people call it mouth-to-mouth, some people call it kissing - any way, it's nice work if you can get it!"

Timberlake recently revealed that he loved working on this movie because he got to act alongside his role model, Clint Eastwood.
