Timberlake/Timbaland Free Concert

No, not in Memphis. Sorry for the tease, but we couldn’t help ourselves. JT and Timbaland surprised Vegas partygoers at the Jet nightclub, showing up at about 1 a.m. and rocking the DJ booth until roughly 4:30.

Not only that, JT’s parents were there, partying on till the wee hours as well. (When was the last time your partied with your mom till dawn?)

With no sign of current fling Jessica Biel, JT made some time with the sexy cocktail waitresses at the club. Read more about the late night Vegas action at Perez Hilton.com.

And remember, when you’re a celeb, what you do in Vegas doesn’t stay there. It ends up here.

Timbaland Presents: Shock Value-Timbaland

The most important music-maker of the past decade might be a hip-hop/R&B producer, Timbaland, who has gifted us with Aaliyah’s “Are You That Somebody?” and Missy Elliott’s “Get Ur Freak On.” And yet none of the five albums Timbaland’s released under his own name are must-owns. Timbaland may be the James Brown of his era, but he’ll need his own Star Time-style box set to make a definitive case. Timbaland’s musical genius needs the force of personality and vocal/conceptual content that a compelling frontperson can bring, which is why he’s made his strongest records with Missy Elliott, Justin Timberlake, Aaliyah, and Bubba Sparxxx. Elliott and Timberlake make appearances on this guest-star-laden long-player but on tracks that would be filler on their own best albums. (“Give It to Me,” “Throw It on Me”) — Chris Herrington
