Why Justin Timberlake Missed SNL 50: The Anniversary Special

Unfortunately, Justin
Timberlake

did
not
bring
sexy
back
to
Studio
8H
for


SNL
50:
The
Anniversary
Special
.

The “Cry
Me
a
River”
singer—whose
iconic


Saturday
Night
Live

sketches
include
digital
shorts “D–k
in
a
Box”
and “Motherlover”
as
well
as “Omeletteville”—was

not
among
the
star-studded
attendees

at
the
Feb.
16
event
honoring
50
years
of
the
sketch
comedy
show. 


But,
he
had
a
valid
reason. “Justin
is
in
the
middle
of
a
world
tour,”
a
source
exclusively
told
E!
News, “and
was
unable
to
attend.”
(Also
missing
from
the
audience:


Dan
Aykroyd
,


Bill
Hader
,

Dana


Carvey

and
more.)


Timberlake—a
member
of
the


SNL


five-timers
club
after
hosting
the
show
in
2003,
2006,
2009,
2011
and
2013—first
appeared
on
the
NBC
series
in
March
2000
when


*NSYNC


served
as
the
musical
guest.

Since
then,
the
dad
to
kids


Silas
,
9,
and


Phineas
,
4,
with
wife


Jessica
Biel
,
has
made
several
memorable
appearances
on

SNL
,
even
performing
alongside
BFF


Jimmy
Fallon

in
sketches
like “The
Barry
Gibbs
Talk
Show”
and “Wrappinville.”
