Turning the Page

Turning the Page examines Justin Timberlake’s 2001 — a year when his creative authority and media positioning began to shift in consequential ways. Even without a major solo project in the spotlight, the press, the industry, and a handful of carefully framed public moments started to distinguish him from the rest of *NSYNC in ways that became more obvious over time. Looking at the year as it unfolded, what emerges is a portrait of an artist whose trajectory was beginning to diverge long before any official announcement made that shift explicit.
