2013 is the New 2001: Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé and Destiny's Child

For those of you that don't know, January 9, 2013 ended like this:





Yes, that is a cryptic Justin Timberlake tweet teasing something that could be anything from a Myspace update, to another bad movie that we're forced to suffer through just to see Justin's face, to dare I say it, possibly, just maybe, new music.

But before January 10, 2013, 9:01 am PST there was this:




Leave it up to Beyoncè and Destiny's Child to announce a new album and throw everyone into a tizzy right before Justin Timberlake tells the world that he is really in love with me and not Jessica makes his announcement. 

Finally, January 10, 2013 9:01 PST Justin is ready:


The moment I've been waiting for since 2006 Justin Timberlake is finally ready to do what he does best, make music. I'm not even irritated that the YouTube video was nothing but another tease that revealed a countdown to something else, which better be a song release, on Sunday at 9 pm PST. 

Just like that, this morning of January 10, 2013 felt a lot like a morning in 2001 where all we can talk about is anticipation for impending Justin Timberlake and Destiny's Child projects. Only now we talk about it on Twitter instead of listening to Carson talk about it on TRL. This year is starting off pretty great in my book.
