Justin Timberlake loves cartoons

Justin Timberlake says he agreed to voice Boo Boo in the new animated Yogi Bear movie because it reminded him of his childhood. The pop hunk-turned actor admits she’s a big kid at heart.

I grew up with Hanna-Barbera cartoons,” says Justin. “Yogi and Boo Boo are just iconic characters, they’re awesome.

“I grew up with them and laughed at them as a kid, so I think nostalgia was probably the biggest reason I did this.”

Timberlake recently joked he bribes people to praise his work.

“The truth is I pay those guys to say nice things but I didn’t know David was going to give me an Oscar nod,” he said.

“I really don’t think I should be booking my tux just yet!”
