KEY POINTS:
He's been with more hot ladies than you've had hot dinners - from, er, Britney Spears to Jessica Biel. Justin Timberlake is da man. And now, the hat-tipping twinkle- toes is coming to New Zealand.
He plays Vector Arena in Auckland on October 23 - after Labour Weekend - as part of a worldwide tour in support of his album FutureSex/LoveSounds which features hit singles Sexy Back and What Goes Around Comes Around.
The music star, who first shot to stardom as a Mouseketeer alongside Britney and Christina Aguilera, and then as leader of boy band 'N Sync, is now making a name for himself as an actor and now stars in Black Snake Moan with Samuel L. Jackson.
But it's music he'll be making in New Zealand and the two hour-plus show, with a full band and dancers, features tracks from the latest album, his 2002 debut Justified, and even his 'N Sync days.
On an entirely different musical tip, hard-drinking, hard-living, and hard-rocking heroes Motorhead make a return visit to New Zealand for a show in New Plymouth on October 19 at TSB Stadium.
Leader singer Lemmy and the lads were last here for a cracker gig at the St James in December 2005 and you can expect much of the same because, to quote the frontman himself, "We are Motorhead and we play rock'n'roll."
Meanwhile, Australian rock sensations Airbourne - who sound like AC/DC - make their first visit to New Zealand to play the Kings Arms on August 24 to celebrate the release of their debut album, Runnin' Wild.
