JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE on being different and inclusion

“Growing up in school no one ever called me anything close to an innovator. They called me different, they called me weirdthey called me a couple other words I can’t say on TV. Thankfully my mother taught me that being different was a good thing…that being different meant you could actually make a difference.”

“I wrote this song [Can’t Stop The Feeling] because I wanted it to be about inclusion, about being together. If you are black or you are brown or you are gay or you are lesbian or you are trans — or maybe you’re just a sissy singing boy from Tennessee. Anyone that is treating you unkindly, it is only because they are afraid or they have been taught to be afraid of how important you are because being different means you make the difference. So f— ’em.” I Heart Radio Awards Ceremony
