    Jessica Biel is only famous because of Justin Timberlake.

    She got rated hottest girl in some magazine before. Plus she was on some tv show so I doubt dating Justin made her famous BC she’s still not that popular now anyways

    She is smoking hot and yes, she was famous befor JT. I don’t think she is a particularly great actress, but she has her place in movies.

    Liza your an idiot! She’s been around a long time and she would be just as famous with or without JT. JT didn’t make her famous she was way famous before him, duh she was a child actor on a popular long running family drama by Aaron Spelling. Get your head out your arse before you say something stupid on the internet.

    I think she improves Justin’s image, NOT vice versa. JT’s a turd IMO.
