LOS ANGELES – Justin Timberlake doesn't need love to be romantic.
The singer-and-actor - who recently rekindled his relationship with actress Jessica Biel - loves studying old movies and believes outstanding performances have their own sense of romance.
He said: "To me, romance is not just about love. I recently saw 'Lust, Caution', and it's tragic and romantic. I don't know how they shot those sex scenes. Those scenes looked crazy. In general, movies as a form are romantic to me. One of my favorite performances is Donald O'Connor doing 'Make 'Em Laugh' in 'Singin' in the Rain'. To me, the performance of song and dance with humor and props is a lost art. His performance is masterful and subtle - romantic in a different way."
Justin, 30, shot to fame as a member of the 'All-New Mickey Mouse Club' in 1993 before going on to be a part of NSYNC but he insists he doesn't mind the fact the "weird stages" of his teenage years were lived out in public - though he regrets some of his outfits.
He added in an interview with W magazine: "It's different now, but in the past I've had some accidents, for sure. I think I have to laugh about the fact that I grew up in public. All these weird stages in my teenage years are documented. Why did no one tell me how terrible some of those outfits were?"
