Justin Timberlake discusses his iconic denim on denim look, and it’s hilarious

Justin Timberlake has been in the spotlight for a long time, so he’s definitely learned some things. In a recent interview with Australian show The Project, Justin dishes on some of the things that he’s learned over his years in the spotlight. And one thing he’s learned comes from a textbook Justin Timberlake outfit that he wore with Britney Spears, his then girlfriend. The pair rocked some serious denim at the American Music Awards in 2001, and most of us still remember those looks.

Many of us remember Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears hitting the red carpet hand in hand in head to toe denim.

Yeah, that is a LOT of denim. When the host of The Project Peter Helliar asked Justin what he’s learned about the industry that he didn’t know then, Justin’s reply is SO perfect.

"If you wear denim on denim, it will get documented.

HA! We’re glad that Justin has a good sense of humor about this look, because it has definitely followed him for the last fifteen years.

Justin admitted that denim on denim is a tough look, and not many people can pull it off.

Justin insisted, "You know what, I don't think even I could even bring that back."

Although Justin’s 2001 look was very extreme, there are definitely some chic ways to double up on denim. Justin agrees. He went on to say that when done well, denim on denim can work. But Justin’s still haunted by some of his NSYNC fashion choices, because when host Waleed Aly brought up how cool NSYNC was, Justin had something to say.

"Did you see those outfits we wore?"

We did, Justin. And we loved every second of it.

Although, we can’t deny that NSYNC had some seriously ~out-there~ looks!

We’re just glad to see that Justin can laugh about some of his fashion choices now!
