Timberlake Dicking Around at the Emmys?

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 they’re 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...
I’m told executives at Fox—the network airing this year’s ceremony—still haven’t given their final approval.
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, you’d think there would be no hesitation.
It’s not like Timberlake doesn’t have experience handling controversial television performances, but let’s just hope he and Samberg keep their junk well hidden. The last thing they need to be worrying about is a wardrobe malfunction.
