Fed: Justin Timberlake shows sell out in minutes

SYDNEY, Aug 24 AAP - Australian fans have jumped at the chance to see pop star Justin
Timberlake bring sexy back Down Under.

Tickets to the singer's Melbourne and Sydney shows were all snapped up in less than
15 minutes after going on sale this morning, prompting promoters to add second shows.

Timberlake's two Auckland shows also sold out in less than an hour.

His Australian and New Zealand tour takes in Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide, Melbourne,
Perth and Auckland in late October and early November.

A Grammy Award-winning artist with boy band N'Sync, Timberlake has skyrocketed to solo
stardom with two albums and hits such as Sexyback and Rock Your Body.

It has been three years since he performed in Australia.

This time he will be backed by an 11-piece band and team of dancers.

Timberlake's latest album FutureSex/LoveSounds, his second solo release, hit stores
in 2006 and debuted at number one on the Australian and US charts.

It has sold almost eight million copies worldwide.
