Justin Timberlake Could Make Entrepreneurship Sexy?

Most of you Facebook fans were surprised to learn that Justin Timberlake was to portray Facebook President Sean Parker in the upcoming movie “The Social Network“. This has certainly got Maureen Farrell from Forbes thinking, as she suggests that JT “could make entrepreneurship sexy.”

Farrell does have a point, when you take the likes of Mark Zuckerberg or Bill gates you would not think wow what a hunk, so someone as hot as Timberlake – sorry my wife made me write that – could do wonders for the image of entrepreneurs.

Out of the 500 million or so users, how many of them think about how Sean Parker and Mark Zuckerberg actually came up with the idea of Facebook? OK I know that there are some of you out there who aims to come up with the next “Big Thing” but it takes someone special to come up with something like Facebook or Google, but more often than not they are not what you would call hunks.

I have to wonder if the producers of The Social Network already knew this and thought that they needed to help give the movie a push, so enlisting the funny Jesse Eisenberg and the talented Justin Timberlake is seen to many as a perfect combination.
