Pop star Justin Timberlake was so nervous when he met his sports idol Michael Jordan, he wet himself.
The SexyBack singer counts the basketball star as one of his biggest role models, and he could not contain his excitement when Jordan admitted he was a fan of his music.
Timberlake says, “When I was young… I wanted to be Michael Jordan. It was weird, I heard (Gary Wright song) Dreamweaver in my head when he walked in the room.
“He was like, `Hey man, my kids and I, we’re big fans of your music,’ and I was like, `That’s cool…’ Up until the point where he walked away and I realised I had peed a little.”

lol. this is so embarrassing. i mean, even celebrities do feel this nervousness. lol. but sometimes we just can not control ourselves. but of course for a celebrity like Justine Timberlake, it is very embarrassing for him to experience that.=)
Man, this is funny. These guys have so much exposure, they do so much shows and travel too much and having met so many big personalities all over the world, they still feel nervous. I mean did Jordan notice it
I guess it’s a little exaggerated. It’s called “SEMANTICS” – the symbol is not the thing it symbolizes. Sometimes, actors and performers say such thing for publicity, and/ or to overwhelmingly praise their idols. For what? For doing somebody a favor while embarassing themselves?
“A little” doesn’t means “a lot” and would better go unnoticed. But I really think that thing is a little stupid to admit, that’s like being childish for going public with it and being subjected to critic to millions and billions of people worldwide.
So I think Timberlake doesn’t mean anything when he said “I realized I had peed a little”. If you really want to be embarrassed – don’t say it, just show it or make it obvious.
