JT is the new Elvis

I am willing to submit as Justin Timberlake is (rightfully) being crowned the new King of Pop, that we haven't seen a white King of Pop since Elvis. The similarities? They are both white guys playing (traditionally) black music... and while one could argue that Eminem does a pretty decent job in that respect, he's hardly "pop".

Really, this throne has been empty pretty much since Michael Jackson went insane, and while some might argue he could pass for white these days, I say it's more of a white woman, so I feel my point is still valid.

But back to my point.... think about it. Two young hearthrobs with their images and music being crafted by a music mogul (Elvis' Colonel... Justin with Pharrell Williams at first, and more recently Timbaland). One major difference? Justin's hip waggling is apparently acceptable to parents, while Elvis' was more assuredly not.

I think that's about all I can think of right now. Feel free to rebutt my claim...
