Now that Tina Fey has quit her Sarah Palin SNL parodies, Saturday Night Live has resorted to putting Justin Timberlake in a leotard to keep the laughs and momentum going.
The latest Saturday Night Live skit features Justin Timberlake as a backup dancer for Beyonce. The clip is a parody of the rumers that Beyonce used a drag queen for her recent "Single Ladies" music video (if you haven’t, make sure to see it here first).
In the funny SNL parody clip, guest host Paul Rudd acted as the music vid director while SNL regular Andy Samberg and Bobby Moynihan joined Justin Timberlake as backup dancers for Beyonce.
Justin Timberlake also ‘hosted’ Saturday Night Live in about 2 minutes, since he had to cancel being host of the upcoming Thanksgiving episode.
