“The way I see it, if you’re asking a girl out on a date, it’s only right to do it in a way that she can hear your voice. I had to be pretty persistent in order to get her to say yes,” Timberlake said at a press conference with the Hollywood Foreign Press, according to Us Weekly.

“But I have a fair amount of tenacity and if I want something I stick to it. And in the end, she agreed.”

“There was nothing starry about the way we got together. It was very un-Hollywood-esque, in fact,” he added.

“We met and got talking. Afterward, I asked my friend if I could call her and ask her out. My friend called Jessica and Jessica said yes, and so I called her.”

Three years after their wedding, the actress attended the 2015 Fashion Group International Night Of Stars to support Justin, who was receiving an award from Fashion Group International. One of the richest singers in the world, he is believed to have an estimated net worth of $250 million.

Timberlake proposed in Jackson, Wyoming, in December 2011. “I answer to a higher power now,” he joked during a press conference with the Hollywood Foreign Press.

“We have a couple of rules in our relationship. The first rule is that I make her feel like she’s getting everything. The second rule is that I actually do let her have her way in everything. And, so far, it’s working.”

In October 2015, the couple celebrated three years as a married couple. Jessica rocked her post-baby body only six months after giving birth to baby Silas.

Jessica wore a dress by Dolce & Gabbana and showed off her feet in gold Giuseppe Zanotti heels. She looked so good that even the paparazzi begged her to stay for more photos.
