Here's two names you don't often see paired together: do-it-all singer-dancer-actor Justin Timberlake and outlaw country rocker Hank Williams Jr. The 31-year-old Timberlake, who was born in Memphis, got back in touch with his southern roots recently while taking in a show Williams Jr. performed in Southhaven, Miss., under the stage name Rockin' Randall.
What did the fellow musicians discuss backstage? "Girls, guitars, turkey
hunting, going on cruises and how much we hate them," Williams Jr. told People. Just in case you missed it, turkey hunting was one of the topics. Even stranger, Williams Jr. also revealed the duo's mutual friend is Kid Rock. Timberlake brought along his fiancee, actress Jessica Biel, to take in his bizarre new friendship.
