And why he'd never date 'the girl from the dry cleaners'

(NEWSER) - Justin Timberlake and Playboy really get into it in a new, and very long, interview. (Sample line: “Listen, you’re touching on a deep issue for me.”) Highlights:

• On his new movie, Friends With Benefits: “I couldn’t tell you the number of people in the crew watching me and my bare ass, but it was a lot.”
• On working with ex Cameron Diaz in another upcoming movie, Bad Teacher: “Honestly, the only thing I was worried about before I said yes to that movie was being asked that question. I knew at some point we’d have to promote the film and people would say, ‘Oh my God, that’s so weird that you two dated for four years.’”
• On rumors of flings with Scarlett Johansson, Mila Kunis, and Olivia Wilde: “None of it’s true, so I shouldn’t even dignify it with an answer. … I’m not going to avoid spending time with people because someone who doesn’t know me makes assumptions about what’s going on. That’s bullshit.”
