>Also: I love Justin. Sorry, but I do. He's a big giant dork and I'm crazy about him.
They're all big crazy dorks! :D
Well, I fully support your love of him. I like the big giant dork side of him, I just don't care for the media saturation/hype side to the Timberlake experience. Even if that's not all his fault.
The media saturation side doesn't make me terribly happy either. I kind of choose to ignore it. Or write the terrible angst behind it or something. It's the reason that this time last year I would have said "oh I hate Justin Timberlake, ew" and there's a part of me that still does react badly to that part. I still hate his solo music with a passion.
It's complicated. Part of the reason that it makes me sad when people don't like him is, well, there are parts of him that I really don't like and make me feel uncomfortable. And that either makes me a bad fan for not loving him unconditionally, or a weak person for fangirling him anyway despite the flaws.
Oh, I don't fucking know. Angst about pop stars. Ignore me. :P
It makes you a good, human fan. Much better that you can see some flaws and you're not all creepy and "I'm going to have his baby" about it. *big grin*
Much of his solo music amuses me greatly.
And he'd be sooooo much more loved by me if I thought Chris was most definitely his secret boyfriend.

I love you right now. [beams]
I really like CMAR, but the rest of the stuff is either horrible or creepy as fuck or both IMO.
And yeah, Chris should totally be his secret boyfriend.
Christ, that's something I should add to the bunny list, because it's not on there. No Strings, the story where Chris and Justin try to do the casual sex thing... with disastrous results... they love each other far too much to ever really have no-strings-attached sex.
