NEWS: Justin Timberlake's "Dick in a Box"

CULTURE: Justin Timberlake's Dick in a Box

Has it already been a year? Last December SNL's Andy Samberg and Chris Parnell made the video that promoted YouTube to household name status, "Lazy Sunday." The Saturday Night Live Digital Short featured the two whitest guys eva rapping crazy delicious about the Chronic-WHAT!-cles of Narnia. The video won SNL a certain 2.0 coolness, and brought the power of the YouTube effect into sharp focus. Natalie Portman was next, exposing her previously hidden gangsta side, but what will be this year's "Lazy Sunday"?

If this last week's host Justin Timberlake has anything to say about it, it's "A Special Box" which debuted on last Saturday's episode. In the SNL Digital Short, Timberlake and Samberg channel an early 90s Color me Badd-type R&B duo and their "special" Christmas presents for their special ladies. It's fucking amazing, have a look.

Also, whether you give a shit if he's bringing sexy back or not, credit rightfully goes to Timberlake who both hosted and was the musical performer this week, he absolutely killed it on both fronts in the best episode of the year. Kudos.


Unedited version

I hope Britney sees this. She will know she chose poorly.

That was so hilariously retarded

It was funnier when bleeped.

Also, this is opinion, not news. Not even a very detailed opinion at that.

The version above is not censored - they do say "dick in a box."

those digital shorts are the only good thing left on SNL...

and If I'm not mistaken Samberg always has something to do with them, right? would he be involved in the creative process as well?

I know, that's why I fixed it.

3x1-1?

who could have thouht Justin would turn out to be so hilarious?

haha... hilariious

the kings!

I have to say that my irrational hatred of Justin Timberlake ebbed quite a bit this weekend. I don't care for his music, but he's talented.

I don't know what's funnier: the actual lyrics or the fact that they captured the sound and feel of a variety of 90's R&B jams pitch perfectly

I think we have K-Fucktard to thank for the beards


This is 100% funnier than Lazy sunday

and agree with Truthbealiar it was funnier bleeped(it happens some times) I had thought it was Cock in a box to which is funnier once i heard it was dick in a box mehhhh.

Exactly what I was thinking

Especially that "Oooweeeoooo" thing at the end there.

"Also, whether you give a shit if he's bringing sexy back or not, credit rightfully goes to Timberlake who both hosted and was the musical performer this week, he absolutely killed it on both fronts in the best episode of the year. Kudos."

Yep. 'Couldn't agree more. That kid is one talented mutha.

Wow. I'm really surprised; that was actually kind of funny. Who would have thought?

That was so funny.

You know what, I agree with those who commented that it's funnier bleeped so I just switched the post to show the original broadcast version.
