Justin Timberlake has asked Jessica Biel to marry him, reports Us Weekly. The proposal happened in the mountains of Jackson, Wyoming, in late December.

“Justin knows how much she loves snowboarding and the mountains, so it was the perfect place,” the magazine quoted an insider.

Us Weekly says that after a three-month split in early 2011, Biel, 29, made it clear that she wanted to spend her life with Timberlake, 30.

“When they reunited, they had a conversation about taking the next step,” a source told Us.

In March last year, the couple broke up after four years, but their reps seemed to leave the door open.

Not everyone likes Justin Timberlake, as I imagined. Jessica Biel’s brother is probably president of the I Hate Justin Timberlake club.

TMZ just posted a video of Justin (Jessica’s brother, not boyfriend) dissing Timberlake’s Tequila comapny, 901. He says it’s a massive failure and it’s all Timerlake’s fault.

Usually, everything Timberlake does or says is praised. He’s loved for his time in N Sync, his solo efforts, his skits on SNL and most of his movies. He’s been pretty successful with his clothing line, William Rast, and his efforts to revamp MySpace. It takes a lot of guts for Justin Biel to make fun of him on a public platform.

“I’ve been waiting for [Timberlake] to do something with this f**king brand — make a song about it, put it in a god damn video, hold it up, take some pictures, I don’t care — just do something because we’re dying on the motherf**king vine here!” Justin rants.

He sounds pretty drunk, if you ask me. He goes on to give tag line suggestions:

- 901 Tequila: mixes well with a bump of cocaine
- 901 Tequila: Steve Jobs used to drink it – oh man that’s too soon
- 901 Tequila: I only s**t my pants once on it
- 901 Tequila: so god damn exclusive our own CEO doesn’t even drink it

According to TMZ, Justin used to work for his sister’s boyfriend at 901 Tequila but was recently “let go” a few weeks ago. He could have put out this video as a way of getting back at the company for firing him.

901 is trying to cover their butts by released a statement, saying this video was “as part of a larger viral marketing campaign slated for the end of December. It was released prematurely without our knowledge and prior to the final edit.”

Watch Justin’s rant below.

According to People, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are no more. The couple decided to end their relationship recently and “there are no hard feelings,” a source told PEOPLE exclusively. “It was completely mutual and they both decided it was time to move on.”

Jessica Biel has climbed to the top of many guys hearts, and claimed them.  She also may have climbed to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, but now Biel wants to climb bigger, reports People.

“I’m thinking about trekking to Everest base camp,” Biel said Saturday, at the 13^th Annual EIF Revlon Run/Walk for Women in New York’s Times Square.  “That’s kind of the next goal.”

Back in January, Biel climbed Africa’s tallest peak, accompanied by actor Emile Hirsch and members of the United Nation Foundation.  The climb was held to raise awareness and funds for the global water crisis.

Although Biel wants to tackle this summit, she admits that she hasn’t continued her pre-climb training.

“I’m not keeping up the same type of workout because it was a little different than what I normally do,” Biel said.

So, hopefully the star can manage to get back into shape and conquer Everest.  Keep your fingers crossed.

Justin Timerberlake’s mom, Lynn Harless, told E! News she thinks the woman her son is with is awesome. “He’s found someone that’ll golf with him, give him a hard time when he deserves it and stand up to him,” she said.

“Easy Virtue” is easy on the eyes, but is it an amazing film? Not really. The movie, based on the 1920’s play by Noel Coward that was also adapted into a silent film by Alfred Hitchcock in 1928 is definitely viewable — but it won’t bedazzle.

The story goes that a young Englishman, John Whittaker (played by “Narnia’s” Ben Barnes), falls in love with a glamorous American race-car beauty named Larita (Jessica Biel). They elope Vegas-style without telling their families in the roaring twenties. But when John decides to take Larita back home (meaning a humongous mansion in the outskirts of England) John’s mother, Mrs. Whittaker, becomes less than pleased with his selection.

Now, before your alarm bells go off by thinking this movie is anything like J.Lo’s “Monster-in-Law” flick where the mother-in-law vs. daughter-in-law war is there just for laughing purposes don’t worry, “Easy Virtue” isn’t like that at all. Coward was known for presenting comedies in the form of tragedies and this idea transpires into the movie. Also be warned that the film’s opening credits may lead you into thinking you’re in for an hour and a half of cheese but don’t be fooled, it gets much better.

I don’t think there could have been a better casting choice of Larita, a.k.a Biel. This is a character that oozes sex appeal but one that’s also clever and witty, and she more than pulls this off. Barnes also does a good job connecting with Biel’s character and acting like a boy who hasn’t yet turned into a man (which is how the character is supposed to act). This movie also counts with Colin Firth (“Bridget Jones’s Diary,” “Mamma Mia!”) who definitely ups the performance standard in this film. Although his character, Mr. Whittaker, remains quiet and pensive throughout most of the movie, when he decides to open up his mouth you can expect an insightful line or two.

It’s also cool to see the American vs. English rivalry in the film, with a 1920’s twist. A lot of the humour in the movie comes from the culture shocks that both Larita and Mrs. Whittaker go through with each other. And since its not a “good daughter in law” “bad mother-in-law” type of movie, at times you might sympathize with Larita, while other moments you might take Mrs. Whittaker’s side.

Also, this is not a plotless movie with slap stick comedy. “Easy Virtue” has quite a few twists and turns (including character revelations) and isn’t extremely predictable. It’s good to see a movie where most of the laughs and smiles come from the actual dialogue as opposed to the characters tripping and falling.Take Larita’s advice to John’s younger sister, Hilda, for example, “If you want a man’s attention, ignore him.”

So what’s the verdict? “Easy Virtue” is mildly entertaining and interesting. The acting is fine, the setting is beautiful, the sets are authentic and the plot is somewhat refreshing. But if that isn’t enough to get you into the theatres, at least see it for for a 1920’s revamped version of the “Sex Bomb” song.

JESSICA BIEL is astonished men find her magazine photospreads sexy, because shooting them is the most uncomfortable and unnatural experience.

The actress explains it takes hours standing in awkward positions to create the polished effect of a covershoot.

Biel tells Parade, “It’s never nearly as sexy doing it as it appears in a magazine. You’re sort of laughing through the photo shoot because it’s funny to take yourself so seriously.

“I could never be a model because you’re always standing in an awkward position and your back hurts, and you’re wearing heels lying on a rock or in the sand or something. You’re like, ‘This is weird. I’m uncomfortable. I’m itching. I need to scratch.’

“So I would much rather laugh and do a funny sexy scene.” (IG/STR/ES)

Jessica Biel was able to raise $30,000 US for an injured teenager by auctioning herself off for a date.

The high bidder, identified only as John, made the bid at the Denver auction on Tuesday, reports WENN. His prize will be a lunch date with the 24-year-old actress, best known for her role on Christian drama 7th Heaven.

Actress Jessica Biel is set to auction off a date to the highest bidder, with proceeds going to a teenager who lost her leg on prom night in an automobile accident.

According to newspapers in Denver, the event will be called “Mollypalooza” in celebration of 18-year-old Molly Bloom. Her family has been saddled with medical bills following the accident.

In May, Bloom was struck and dragged almost 40 feet by a Hummer stretch limousine, according to police. The driver of the car, Stanley D. Sample, is facing a misdemeanor charge of careless driving resulting in serious bodily injury.

“My mom happened to be able to contact (Biel’s) parents, and they had heard about Molly’s tragedy,” said Dmitri Lee Natali, a 19-year-old friend and ex-classmate of Bloom’s. “They said, ‘Yeah, I bet she’ll do [the date].’”

The fundraiser will take place on Tuesday at the Rock Island Club in Denver, CO, though Biel won’t be in attendance.
