Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel climb aboard the love boat

Despite protestations that he didn't want new love Jessica to accompany him on tour, it seems Justin has been bitten by the love bug.

The couple were seen kissing aboard a speedboat as Justin touched down in Oslo to continue his European tour.

According to The Mirror the SexyBack singer said he was forced to send the actress back to the U.S. recently because he finds it difficult to focus on his work when he is with her.

He told The Mirror: "Jessica met up with me in Manchester, England, but for Paris I told her categorically no. This tour is very important to me. I'm doing it really seriously so there's no question of playing sweethearts."

"This time I'm putting the machine before everything else."

Someone might need to pass them memo to the actress best known for her role in the remake of The Illusionist as the couple canoodled on board the luxury speedboat in the Norwegian capital.

The singer has attempted to play down speculation that the couple are in love, insisting she is just "a very dear friend."

Asked who the love of his life is, he replied, "I haven't met her yet." Judging by these photos it looks as if the singer doth protest too much.
