Music Video of the Day: JT - "Dick in a Box"

Before you jump to conclusions (every time I say that I think of Office Space...) and say "We've seen this video so many times!!! It's so yesterday!!" please hear me out. There's a very good reason to make this today's Music Video of the Day.

In Justin Timberlake's Madison Square Garden concert last night, JT brought on a very special guest to close out his show.

Via People:
Though Timberlake kicked off a raucous set at 9 p.m. that had audience members including Donald and Melania Trump on their feet, the real fun started at 11:20, when an announcer appeared to introduce "a new band" that had "the most watched video on YouTube." He ended with, "Can [this concert] get any better than this? Hell yes it can!"

Then Samberg and Timberlake took the stage – in their Color Me Badd-style costumes and facial hair from the SNL sketch and, of course, presents attached below the belt. To wild cheering they sang "D--- in a Box," changing the holiday lyrics from "Christmas ... Hannukkah ... Kwanzaa" to "Valentine's Day ... Flag Day ... Kwanzaa."
I've got to wonder how the parents of the thousands of young, teenage girls felt about this display by the former 'NSync heartthrob. Either way, this is one of the very few things that JT has done in his career that I can stand to watch (the other being his part in Alpha Dog; he plays the pansy-ass gangster part really well).
