Justin Timberlake Creates Instagram Account, Shares 22 Pictures

Photo-sharing website Instagram's long list of celebrity users has just gained another big superstar.

Just a few days after Madonna joined the network, her fellow pop singer Justin Timberlake also decided to do the same and immediately added 22 photos to his newly-created account.

All the snaps are from last Sunday's 55^th annual Grammy Awards, which took place in Los Angeles' Staples Centre. The pictures captured his arrival on red carpet, his backstage preparations and some moments spent alone.

Within two days, the "Cry Me a River" crooner has gained a following of nearly 160,000 fans on the website and that number is expected to swell even more.

This is the perfect time for JT to join Instagram as he has a lot coming up in the next few weeks, which means that he will have a lot of pictorial stuff to share with his fans.

He recently released his brand new single "Mirrors" on Sunday and is now getting ready for the worldwide premiere of his third solo album "The 20/20 Experience," which hits the shelves in Europe on March 15 and in the US, four days later. After that, he will go on a road tour to promote the album.

The former "'N Sync" member has produced this ten-track album in collaboration with his longtime pal Timbaland and Jerome Harmon.
