LONDON:

Pop singer Christina Aguilera is all praise for good friend Justin Timberlake because he is willing to try something completely different with his music. She said: “I am inspired by artists who try to do something other than the last time around. Sexyback is definitely taking him in a different direction, and I respect that. I think each record should think outside the box. I admire anyone who isn’t doing the same old thing.” — HNS
