JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE - NUMBER ONE HAT-TRICK FOR TIMBERLAKE

Justin Timberlake has continued his recent run of success with a third straight number one single from his album FutureSex/LoveSounds.

His latest release, What Goes Around…Comes Around, is at the top of the Billboard chart, following in the footsteps as his hits SexyBack and My Love.

During the first four days of the video for What Goes Around being released on iTunes, fans purchased and downloaded the video more than 50,000 times.

No doubt the appearance of stunning actress Scarlett Johansson in it helped sales along somewhat.

Nearly three months in, 2007 has been an absolutely stellar year for Timberlake. FutureSex/LoveSounds has sold nearly five million copies worldwide and broke all digital album sales records.

He was handed Grammy awards for best rap/sung collaboration and best dance recording and at the Brit awards he was named as best international male artist.

Runaway Love by Ludacris featuring Mary J Blige is currently at number two in the Billboard Hot 100 chart, followed by Say It Right by Brit award-winning Nelly Furtado.
