Justin Timberlake is dreamy and whatever, and you know he’s made a bazillion dollars with FutureSex/LoveSounds. So why is it that the Justin Timberlake Foundation, which he created in 2002 to support music programs at schools, seems to be completely busted?
According to IRS documents, the foundation hasn’t filed a tax return since 2004. In that year, it made one grant worth $5,000 and hasn’t given a penny since. Back in the day on TRL, when he was best known for being the cute one in *NSync, Justin used to give a damn:
“I about a year ago started my own foundation to help music education because growin’ up in school I never really had a lot of music education and I wanted to make sure that any kid who had a dream like I did and didn’t have access to it could actually have access to it and we’ve done so many different things and now we started a partnership with American Music Conference…”
Timberlake blathered on to Carson Daly about petitions on his website. I’m sure they did a lot of good. More recently, his charity work includes hosting a golf tournament in Las Vegas and signing an Xbox 360 to be auctioned off for an Australian nonprofit. Sounds hard.
