William Rast, the fashion line by Justin Timberlake and his childhood friend Trace Ayala, has a new partner: Target.
The retailer announced Thursday that a William Rast collection, including denim, outerwear and sportswear for men and women, would launch in December and be available for a month.
Target has had a steady stream of limited-edition partnerships with top-level designers, including Zac Posen, Jean Paul Gaultier, Rodarte and Proenza Schouler, giving the retailer a certain prestige among the fashion crowd and bringing designer labels down to a more affordable price point.
The typical William Rast look is casual, with an emphasis on jeans and leather jackets. The fall runway collection, presented earlier this year at New York Fashion Week, was dubbed New America and inspired by road trips between the Mississippi River and the West Coast, Timberlake said.

No one was under the illusion that Simon Cowell would be easy to replace.
And, as speculation about who will sit in the hot seat he’s vacated on American Idol continues, two more big names have hit the radar: Both Justin Timberlake and Elton John are on producer Simon Fuller‘s short list, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
What about the future of the current judges? Sources tell THR that FOX is looking to lure back ex-Idol producer Nigel Lythgoe, who has said he would clean house if it were up to him.
The judge most likely to be left standing is Randy Jackson, according to THR, but it would also be difficult to let go Ellen DeGeneres, who has a multi-year contract with FOX. According to a source in her camp, she’s prepared to fulfill the contract, THR reports. Kara DioGuardi‘s deal is year-to-year, and it has yet to be renewed.
Elton and Justin join Chris Isaak, Shania Twain, and Harry Connick Jr. on the list of possible replacements.

It’s not everyday that you come across a modern day Cinderella story, especially in the music industry. But Esmee Denters comes as close as any to having such a tale. A mere two years ago the young singer/songwriter was a pancake house waitress in her hometown in the Netherlands. But her desire and passion for music drove her to post covers of her singing on YouTube. Within nine months her channel captured 21 million views and currently stands almost 133 million views. And most importantly one of those viewers happened to be Justin Timberlake.
Now as one of the first artists signed to JT’s record imprint, Tenneman Records, this rising Pop sensation seemingly caught hold of a shooting star straight to the top. Timberlake says of Denters, “Some people have it and some people don’t – but this girl’s the real deal!” In fact Timberlake believes in her potential so much he is featured with her on lead single, ‘Love Dealer’ (available now on iTunes) as well as in the music video. The single, much like Esmee, promises to be a summertime smash hit and her highly anticipated debut album is due out in August.
