Timberlake Considers Quitting Music

BEIJING, Oct. 3 -- Justin Timberlake is considering quitting the music business after just two solo albums.

The Sexyback star, 25, has revealed he doesn't want to be performing on stage for the rest of his life - because he's sick of unwanted attention from female fans and abuse from rowdy audiences.

He says, "I've had bottles of pee thrown at me, and had girls try to tear my clothes off."

"I don't want to be jumping around on stage 10 years from now."

Timberlake launched his pop career with boy band 'N Sync before embarking on a solo career in 2002.

He's since tried his hand at acting with roles in Edison, Alpha Dog and upcoming animation Shrek The Third.
