“That’s when Mark Townsend, who was here and did my hair, used to stuff curls into my hair, you know, to make it look fuller,” she recalls. “At those parties, I’d probably get a little drunk and then, like, take them out and put them in people’s pockets, like men’s jacket pockets because they’re so annoying and, like, find a place to put them.” place them.”
Understandably, Garfield, like us, has some questions—like why target men? “It would be like, ‘Can you hold this for me?’ I’ll get it later,” Johnson said of how gullible her fellow partygoers were. “And then I’ll forget.”
But we will never forget that confession. Or what Garfield does next. On the set of the Facebook movie, he did a little snooping inside Justin Timberlake’s jockey.
“I accidentally got put in his trailer and I thought, ‘This is not my trailer,'” he recalled. “And I saw some of his homework. Like, a board with cue cards and some of his internal picks… I was like, ‘Oh, I have to leave. And when I leave, I have to keep my eyes looking back.’ linger as long as you can when I leave.’ Because, of course, I mean it’s like there. And thank God, it’s not bad at all.
Johnson told him “that was terrible” – and Garfield had to agree: “Looking back, I was a really terrible person.”
