Will Justin Timberlake be allowed to show his Dick at the Emmys?
Maybe.
I hear there are ongoing talks for Timberlake and Andy Samberg to perform Dick in a Box on the big night (Sept. 16) at L.A.s Shrine Auditorium.
No surprise there, because theyre nominated for the skit, which originally aired on Saturday Night Live in December. Problem is, not everyone is a fan of the racy ditty.
Taking its cue from early '90s R&B videos, the number features Timberlake and Samberg with wrapped presents attached to their waists. They sing about giving very special gifts to their ladies for Christmas. The song even explains how to do it:
1. Cut a hole in a box.
2. Put your junk in that box...
Im told executives at Foxthe network airing this years ceremonystill havent given their final approval.2. Put your junk in that box...
When it aired on NBC, dick was bleeped out 16 times! A few days later, NBC came under fire from conservative groups when the network posted an uncensored version on the SNL website and YouTube.
Reps for the Emmys and Fox did not comment, nor did reps for Timberlake and Samberg.
Considering Fox is home to The Simpsons, youd think there would be no hesitation.
Its not like Timberlake doesnt have experience handling controversial television performances, but lets just hope he and Samberg keep their junk well hidden. The last thing they need to be worrying about is a wardrobe malfunction.
