Despite the fact that he likes to strike his badass pose—his chin down, eyes looking mischievously up at camera—Timberlake doesn’t strike me as a bad boy. He certainly has the bark—grabbing Mila Kunis’ breasts, being frank with interviewers, bragging about pot smoking—but he still comes off more Chihuahua than Pit Bull...
