A Cypher, Wrapped In An Enigma, Smothered With Secret Sauce.
That’s what Justin Timberlake is to me.
I really can’t stand about 98% percent of his music, but he is an incredible performer.
He hasn’t been in any good movies, but he is a decent actor.
He comes off kinda doofy, but he’s pretty hilarious and doesn’t care if he looks like a fool. (proof, proof, and proof.)
In fact, there is an entire website dedicated to his SNL skit videos:
Anyhoo, I stumbled across this video of him performing at the Hope For Haiti Now event, and it kinda blew my mind. It’s him and Matt Morris doing Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.” And I really love the ending.

JT is most useful as an SNL host. Usually hilarious. His Robin Gibb to Jimmy Fallon’s Barry Gibb (“the Barry Gibb Show”) is awesome. I agree – he is a great performer.

wouldn’t it be great if SNL just locked him into a contract? haha

I’m sure you already know this but if you go on amazon you can buy the album from the Hope for Haiti event for $7.99 and that song it on it. I bought it and love it.
Oh and you should know by now that I share Es’ love for JT and I think it should be quite clear why he’s so awesome!

Agreed, that performance was one of the best moments of the Hope for Haiti event. Loved it. Lovely title to this post, btw, brilliant.
