Sheffield rockers Arctic Monkeys and Justin Timberlake are planning a musical collaboration, according The Sun’s Bizarre column.

According to the newspaper, Alex Turner and co. met up with Timberlake at London’s Dorchester Hotel on a recent afternoon and discussed the possibility of working together.

The newspaper quotes an anonymous source as saying: “The Arctics have very wide musical tastes, as does JT. It would be a match made in musical heaven.

“They met up one afternoon at the hotel and discussed doing something. It would be absolutely brilliant to see them working on stuff together."

Yeah, newyork92, I agree with you now that I think about it. How can the Arctics lower themselves to Justin Timberlake? Uh uh. Not gonna work. I can't believe they would actually do that. If it's true, I hope they change their minds.
