JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE READY FOR THE MOVIES
Justin Timberlake is ready to swap his singing career for the movies.
The international pop star will wrap up the Australian leg of his Justified World Tour in Sydney on Friday night and is hoping to take a break.
"This is my last set of live shows," Timberlake said.
"I don't want to plan too far ahead. I'm ready for my life to slow down."
Asked what he wanted to do next, Timberlake said he was open to what the future holds.
"I am only young so I think it is natural and wherever it progresses to I can't predict that, I have no idea," he said.
Timberlake recently finished shooting his first big budget feature film, Edison, which filmed in Vancouver and also stars Morgan Freeman and Kevin Spacey.
He said it would be a "safe assumption" to say he was going to concentrate more on his movie career in the future.
"That is a whole part that I am learning so much about and I'm very willing to just take that step in whatever shape or form that might be and we will see where that goes," he said.
"There are a couple of things that I am looking at."
As a musician, Timberlake has sold more than seven million albums as a solo artist and many more as part of boy band NSYNC.
Timberlake said the concerts on his current tour reflected the making of his latest album - Justified.
"I think the idea behind the show is to kind of show how the record got made," he said.
"All in all I think I am finding that it is just more fun to work the crowd and keep it raw and laugh."
Prior to the press conference, Timberlake's media manager warned journalists not to ask personal questions, particularly relating to his previous relationship with Britney Spears and current partner Cameron Diaz.
