Justin Timberlake: JT Hosts SNL PDQ, LOL

Singer's speed-hosting makes us think Saturday Night Live should be two minutes long every week

Sometimes less is more. Justin Timberlake's appearance on Saturday Night Live last night is a case in point. The singer appeared on the "Weekend Update" segment to apologize for having to cancel hosting the Thanksgiving show—and then launched into a two-minute version of what the show would have been. Needless to say, he's bringing turkey back, it makes a tasty snack, but we're sorry we missed "Dick in a Box 2" and all the other wisps of hilarity JT flashed in this bit. Maybe SNL should be two minutes every week.

On second thought, then we wouldn't get to see things like Beyoncé shooting a new video for "Single Girls" with single-girl Timberlake in a one-piece ladies' swimsuit and heels as one of her backup dancers. Call him Sacha Baron Cohen fierce! Check it out after the jump:
