Justin Timberlake will guest star in a
gay role on Fox's The Cleveland Show, Us Weekly
reported.
The 29-year-old entertainer will voice
a gay character that falls in love with Cleveland's co-worker Terry
Kimple.
Co-creator Rich Appel talked about the
upcoming episode during San Diego Comic-Con, the four-day convention
of science fiction/fantasy and animation.
“Terry falls in love with a guy
voiced by Justin,” Appel said.
“Justin is just hysterical,” he
added.
Saturday Night Live
comic actor Daniel Jason Sudeikis provides the voice of Terry
Kimple.
Timberlake is best known as one of the
former lead singers of the popular 1990s boy band 'N Sync,
which included Lance Bass, who has since announced he's gay.
More recently, Timberlake can be seen
in the upcoming film The Social Network, set to hit theaters
in October, and opposite Cameron Diaz in next year's romantic comedy
Bad Teacher.
The Cleveland Show, the first
spinoff from Fox's animated comedy Family Guy, has received
mixed reviews since its 2009 debut. It returns for its second season
on Sunday, September 26. The episode starring Timberlake is
scheduled to air in February.
