Johnny Rotten & Justin Timberlake - Are They The Same Person?

I happened to notice that today is the birthday of both ex-NSync'er Justin Timberlake and ex-Pistol Johnny Rotten. Justin turns 26 today, whereas Johnny turns 5,001...sorry, I mean 51. Just like with punk, I got hung up on the zeros.

Think the similarities between these two end there? Well, think again. To make this coincidence even stranger, I found out that Johnny Rotten has suggested that in an upcoming movie about all-things-Sex-Pistol, Johnny wants Justin Timberlake to play him.

I have respect for Timberlake, and like Johnny Rotten, but I have to say that I would not have seen this coming. It's like a really unpleasant surprise, wrapped in a box.
