Justin Timberlake

NEW YORK — Justin Timberlake has publicly apologized to his actress-wife Jessie Biel days after he was seen holding hands with the co-star of his upcoming movie.

The pop star and actor wrote Wednesday on Instagram that in the photos and video that went viral last month of him and actress Alisha Wainwright at a New Orleans bar, he “displayed a strong lapse in judgment — but let me be clear — nothing happened between me and my co-star.”

Timberlake says he “drank way too much that night and I regret my behavior. I should have known better. This is not the example I want to set for my son.”

The 38-year-old Timberlake is filming the movie “Palmer” with Wainwright in New Orleans. He married Biel in 2012 and they have a son, 4-year-old Silas.

SAN ANTONIO — Willie Nelson, 86, may have given up smoking, but he hasn't stopped using marijuana.While in San Antonio last week for two performances, the country music legend said he no longer smokes in an effort to take better care of himself.Nelson, a longtime marijuana advocate, said he “started smoking cedar bark, went from that to cigarettes to whatever.”Nelson, who owns a company that sells marijuana products, says: “I have abused my lungs quite a bit in the past, so breathing is a little more difficult these days and I have to be careful.”His spokeswoman, Elaine Schock, said Wednesday that Nelson hasn't given up cannabis, and she points out there are different ways to consume it.“That said,” she said “Willie does what he wants, when he wants, when it comes to smoking.”One thing though Nelson won't be giving up is touring.“I love the bus,” he said. “This is my home.”
