He’s used to being on top of the charts but soon Justin Timberlake will be on top of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Along with rapper Lupe Fiasco and singer Kenna, the SexyBack singer will attempt to climb to the top of the mountain in Tanzania, Africa in an effort to raise awareness about global water crisis.

JT tells the upcoming issue of GQ: “I’ve been training four times a week to get my VO2 [oxygen consumption] levels up to expand my lungs. We’ll climb for a week straight, carrying 30 pounds on our backs. It’s going to be intense, but it’s going to be so rewarding.”

He adds: “We’re going to be ready for it.”

    Really hard to hate on a guy that is talented as he is. As long as he doesn’t marry that dude Jessica Biel all will be good for him.

    I think Justin is really talented but I’ve never really picked him for the sporty/fit type of guy. Wonder how he’s going to handle it? It’s an awesome thing he is doing, it’s good to see when a celebrity actually does something rather than just giving money.
