Justin Timberlake's New Costar: The Eiffel Tower

A romantic romp under the stars in Paris is the plot of a new perfume ad starring Justin Timberlake, shooting at night around the Eiffel Tower this week. Like an aging diva, the Tower won't travel for just anyone, so the singer/actor had to come to her.

The shoot, for Givenchy's cologne "Play," feature Timberlake and an actress crossing the Champ de Mars and scaling the tower at night. Since an earlier spot for the fragrance included Timberlake on a plane, this must be his destination—which makes sense, given that the brand has called Paris home since its founding in 1952. No sign of on-again off-again girlfriend (and fellow Super World Traveler) Jessica Biel on set, although the pair recently had lunch in Vancouver where she's filming the big-screen "A-Team" remake.

How To Be A Part Of Facebook's Biopic In Baltimore

Good morning, Baltimore! Here's something you'll want to update your status about, post on people's walls and create albums for -- the Facebook movie's coming to town! And whoever manages to appear in it will win a special prize from Mark Zuckerberg of potentially knowing that you exist.

"The Social Network" is already the most anticipated movie of 2010 for film geeks as well as people who spend too much time on their computers, thanks to the participation of "The West Wing"'s Aaron Sorkin, who signed on to write the script, and "Zodiac" and "Fight Club" director David Fincher. (I am Jack's nerdy roommate having a walk-and-talk with investors?)

Zuckerberg famously dropped out of Harvard to bring his baby to life, but shooting in Cambridge can get expensive -- that's if you even get the thumbs-up from the top brass, so it's off to Baltimore and the Johns Hopkins University. Students on campus found out this week that the crew will arrive on Sunday and be shooting Monday and Tuesday.

Justin Timberlake Wards Off The Ladies With Armed Guard at CDG

Over the weekend, Justin Timberlake was spotted arriving at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, rolling his own Louis Vuitton bag and being escorted by an armed guard, presumably to keep away screaming teenage girls.

Last night, Jonathan Rhys Meyers was also spotted with a guard in the Paris airport, only this guard wasn't trying to protect Meyers, he was trying to protect the general public. Apparently, the "Tudor" was on a bit of a bender as he threw money on the floor and drunkenly bragged about his wealth. He reportedly told the officers, "You wanna hit me? Hit me!"

We wonder if he was upset about the new baggage fees, which seem even worse now that there is a resolution in the House of Representatives to have the TSA take control of the size of carry-on bags. If passed, instead of each airline being responsible for screening the size of each passenger's bag, the TSA will presumably screen bags as people are going through the metal detectors.

This is supposed to insure a uniform standard for the size of all carry-on luggage, but will also mean your only choices in the airport will be to go through one more bureaucratic step or be gouged by the airlines to check your luggage. Maybe its time to get to know the Amtrak schedule a bit better.

LUV Sex Magic: Justin Timberlake Flies Southwest

Clearly the thrill of low fares doesn't just attract us common folk: Justin Timberlake hopped aboard Southwest Airlines on Friday, and did he have an "A" pass? You bet he did!

Timberlake and a bodyguard were allowed to board the Burbank-Las Vegas flight first, although somehow the singer's buddy still got stuck in the dreaded middle seat. (No, we don't know whether Justin is a window or an aisle.) Timberlake spent the weekend in Vegas, including a stop at the Playboy Club and a private tasting of his new tequila, 901, at Wynn-owned nightclub XS.

Timberlake is rumored to be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro this summer with Lupe Fiasco, a trip for which there are probably no low-cost carrier flights available. But maybe this priceless publicity will buy more time for Southwest's Vegas routes, on which the carrier was, according to the Las Vegas Sun, trimming capacity to better cope with the downturn. At $231 (the price of a round-trip we just pulled off Southwest.com for this weekend), it's the ticket even a non-millionaire can afford.

How to Get Tickets to Jimmy Fallon's New Show

Monday night, Jimmy Fallon made his debut as the new host of "Late Night." So far, things haven’t been going so good. Critics have panned his awkward opening, the L.A. Times called his first show, "forced, amateurish and uncomfortable.” But it has had its moments (like the reunion of Fallon and Justin Timberlake doing their Gibb brothers impersonation) and it is sure to get better, no one should be judged on their first day at a new job.

The Restaurant Where Britney and Justin Met Monday Night?

This town ain't big enough for the both of them: Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake got way more than they ordered when they both found themselves at Yatai Asian Tapas Bar in West Hollywood for late dinners on Monday.

Timberlake was having dinner with his current sweetheart Jessica Biel around 10 pm when his former flame arrived--with her mom! That's gotta hurt. US Magazine's all-important anonymous witness said Justin and Jessica avoided the Spears party, who stayed about 30 minutes and then left.

Yatai, the Japanese word for street food stands serving ramen, dumplings and assorted fried meats, is to be distinguished from yattai!, an exclamation meaning "All right!" or "We did it!" popularized by this video.

Super World Travelers Want Your Votes

They just can't stay away from each other! Justin Timberlake was making this appearance at a political event in Clark County, Nevada (home of Las Vegas) this week and he managed to get girlfriend Jessica Biel to come along with him.

This despite the fact that he was planning to spend the rest of the week on the links! It's for a good cause, though: Timberlake is hosting the Shriners Hospitals for Children PGA tour event in Vegas this week. Golfers can win and ticket proceeds go to the kids, so it's not like he's just off on a boondoggle with his buddies.

Maybe Biel didn't have anything better to do: Her latest project "Nailed," directed by the notoriously temperamental David O. Russell, has been beset by shooting delays.

Jr. Super World Travelers Had a Wedding to Attend

If it weren't for weddings, would broke twentysomethings ever go anywhere? What's good for David's Bridal is good for Jessica Biel, who served as a bridesmaid this week in the wedding of her "7th Heaven" costar Beverly Mitchell.

Biel dragged along boyfriend and fellow Super World Traveler Justin Timberlake to the city of Ravello (near Naples) to see Mitchell wed her accountant beau. Despite the paparazzi chasing them from Rome, it sounds like Biel managed not to be a Bridesmaidzilla and focused on her friend's special day.

Fun fact: Mitchell and Biel played sisters on "7th Heaven"; by the time Mitchell's character Lucy got married, Biel had been written off over differences with the producers but returned to the family-friendly show specifically for that arc. (Yes, we looked it up.)

Justin and Jessica Take on the Coliseum

Looks like they're at it again. As if their flawless bone structure didn't make us feel badly enough, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake also feel the need to incessantly remind us of all the places we aren't visiting right now.

This week, the Brangelina wannabes traversed Rome, stopping by the Coliseum yesterday.

Here they are, flanked by a tour guide and a bodyguard. Earlier this week, as the gossipers say, they were seen "canoodling" on a nearby street. Even the PDA-averse Timberlake can't avoid the romantic powers of Rome.

Fashion Week Travel: Dress Like Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake poses with buddy Trace Ayala (right) and two designers for their William Rast label, which made its debut at New York Fashion Week Spring '09 this week.

Just like last week's US Open, it seems like the Fashion Week tents are buzzing with more celebrities than usual supporting their favorite designers, from Renee Zellweger at Carolina Herrera to Victoria Beckham and Jennifer Lopez at Marc Jacobs. Maybe the recession's convincing them to lobby harder for free clothes!

But how are the reviews for William Rast, the upscale jeans line for which Timberlake made a promo video of himself beaten up? Style.com found the women's line surprisingly wearable, and the Hartford Courant said the runway set "conjured Cracker Barrel meets 'Deliverance'" but "went straight for a modern zing lurking in old wardrobe standbys."

But fashion news standard Women's Wear Daily only snarked about guests' disappointment that Timberlake didn't sing at any point during the show.

Airport Photo Shoot: Justin Timberlake's Man Bag

A Super World Traveler doesn't need permission to rock a Gucci bag, even if he's a man. Jessica Biel clearly doesn't mind Justin Timberlake's metro tendencies (including the hat he's holding, not shown) when they're arriving home from a quick trip to San Francisco.

Biel was in South Carolina earlier this summer filming the new David O. Russell film "Nailed" with Jake Gyllenhaal; she'll start work on the first movie she's producing, "Die A Little," this fall, in which she also stars as "a Hollywood wardrobe assistant with a murky past."

Timberlake has been rumored to be making appearances on Madonna's upcoming world tour, but has committed to no dates yet, although he's playing the Planet Hollywood Casino in October.

Movie Set Travel: The Love Guru

"The Love Guru" opens today with Mike Meyers as another completely zany character, Guru Pitka. Originally an American, Pitka was raised outside the US by a host of other gurus. He returns home to launch a self-help business--and solve the romantic and professional problems of a pro hockey player.

We hear it's chock full of the off-color jokes and ridiculous nicknames (think Guru Tugginmypuddha and Harenmahkeester) that only a Meyers movie could claim.

This one was shot primarily in Hollywood North (Canada), so we've gotten creative and offer you some guru-themed spots worldwide to check out instead. Good luck with enlightenment--it'll take some extra work to attain after seeing this one!
