Talkin’ it Up, On The Barry Gibb Talk Show
Again, under the pretense of “just helping out his girlfriend,” Timberlake “happened to be in the area” and “just stopped by” to “steal the spotlight” from Cameron Diaz, reprising his role hosting the Barry Gibb talk show. Hooray?
Bring It On Down to Omeletteville
Picking up where Spears left off, Timberlake kicked off his first hosting stint by creating a few, er, timeless SNL bits, including the Barry Gibb talk show with Jimmy Fallon and a giant talking omelette. Stick to your night job, dude.
All The Single Ladies
Starting the season of Justin Timberlake “just dropping by SNL for no reason,” he showed up on "Weekend Update" to apologize for not hosting the show; and in a "Single Ladies" sketch as one of Beyonce’s back-up dancers.
Step One: Cut a Hole In a Box
I’m sure there were a few more sketches in this show than the first Andy Samberg/Justin Timberlake collabo “Dick in a Box,” but none of the rest of them lit the Internet on fire in the same way. The sketch was so popular, Samberg performed it live with Timberlake on his tour later that year.
Britney, I Had a Great Time Last Night
It was Justin's first taste of SNL stardom, as he tagged along with then girlfriend Britney Spears to riff on their relationship, revealing he accidentally slept with Chris Kattan dressed as Britney. Remember back when Brit and Justin were in love and hope still existed? Oh well.
