Tennessee Officials Split Over Justin Timberlake Honor  3/23/07

Justin Timberlake has split the Tennessee Legislature over a plan to officially honor Memphis' favorite son.

State Senator Ophelia Ford has introduced a resolution to pay tribute to the pop star for his "highly successful music career and for his meritorious service to the state of Tennessee".

But her plans look set to be scuppered because many of her fellow politicians don't approve of the singer's sexy image, and can't forget he was part of Janet Jackson's infamous wardrobe malfunction at the Super Bowl in 2004.

Senator Raymond Finney is opposed to the tribute, stating publicly, "It's not something I want my name on."
