I thought this was fake..
but I guess not.. it was on the MSN news page!!

E! Online news
Fan says 'N Sync-er harassed her


Dec. 29, 2000 —


Don't insult Justin Timberlake (be you fan or not), 'cause he just might pin you up against a wall and yell at you!
A 15-year-old 'N Sync fan from St. Louis is suing the young singer for false imprisonment and intentional infliction of emotional distress after an alleged incident at a local hotel.

Danielle McGuire was in the Chase Park Plaza lobby to greet 'N Sync, but when every member of the band save Timberlake talked to the fans, she shouted out, "I like JC better anyway, he's cuter!"

According to McGuire's lawyer, John Wallach, a security guard appproached her to confirm she had made the comment. When McGuire said yes, he told her to follow him upstairs.

The suit alleges the security guard wouldn't let McGuire tell her mother she was leaving the lobby.

McGuire says Timberlake then met up with her in the hotel, where he (allegedly) backed her up against a wall and proceeded to berate her for her comment.

"[McGuire] said he went on and on, and wouldn't stop," Wallach told MTV.com. "He was right in her face, saying things over and over again."

During this tete-a-tete, McGuire's mother tried to get upstairs, but hotel security barred the way. A family friend, KSDK news anchor Randy Jackson, was allowed upstairs.

Jackson told Wallach that when he got upstairs, Timberlake was yelling at McGuire. When Timberlake saw the newsman, he limped away, saying that his leg hurt, Wallach alleges.

"We tried to resolve this quietly," Wallach said. "But 'N Sync's lawyer told me they weren't interested."

Neither 'N Sync nor Wallach was available for comment.

A jury will determine damages in the suit if and when it goes to court.

'N Sync's multiplatinum No Strings Attached, released in March, is currently number nine on the Billboard 200 albums chart. The band will perform during the halftime show of Super Bowl XXXV, January 28 in Tampa.


Tsk. Tsk. Justin!

Re: I thought this was fake..
umm... part of it is he is getting sued but it was cleared up on the Just Justin messege board by a post Melinda Ball of *Nsync managment (by reliable sources it was her)

This is what she said:

OK people...

I can not tell all because I was there and will probably be in court for this puppy.

but here are the facts.

Justin didnt stop in lobby because he hurt himslef in the show.
The girl made a smart ass comment and offended Justin for no reason
the security person asked her to follow him and she did in fact she ran right after him
Justin explained why he didnt stop(because he was hurt) and asked why she said something so rude without knowing the facts...
there were 5 or 6 of us there when the conversation happened including a St Louis police Officer!
So to those who speak as a parent I say...why are minors alone in a hotel lobby at that time anyway? I dont care how big a fan you are as parents we need to supervise our children more and when I was 9-16 my mom did not let me hang out in hotel lobbies. (even if Michael Jackson or New Kids were in town)
So maybe if this girl hadnt harrassed Justin none of this would have happened. To those who say gold digger...I must agree...
