"Rock Your Body" is the third single from Justin Timberlake's solo debut album Justified. Released in 2003, the Neptunes-produced single peaked at #5 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It featured backup vocals by Vanessa Marquez.

"Rock Your body" entered the Australian Charts At #1 and stayed there for 1 week.

"Rock Your Body" was originally produced for Michael Jackson's comeback album Invincible but for reasons unknown, Michael & The Neptunes had a fallout and the track ended up being sold to Justin for his debut album.

While Timberlake was performing this song at the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show with R&B/pop singer Janet Jackson, at the moment he sang "...have you naked by the end of this song.", he ripped off part of Jackson's costume, exposing her right breast on live television (see Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show controversy).
