Justin Timberlake wins
Emmy Sept 10/07
Justin Timberlake has won an Emmy for his song "Dick In A Box."
The song won the prize for Best
Original Music and Lyrics for the program Saturday Night Live
at the 59th Creative Arts Emmy Awards last night (September 8) in
Los Angeles.
Timberlake teamed up with comic
Andy Samberg to make the song, which spoofed early-'90s R&B/pop acts
like Color Me Badd.
Samberg told the audience :
"Justin, if you're out there, congrats to you, kid."
The video beat two songs from a
musical version of Scrubs to win the award.
Samberg said : "I think it's safe
to say that when we first set out to make this song, we were all
thinking, 'Emmy!'
"The other thing we were thinking
was, 'Hey! There's this young up-and-comer, Justin Timberlake, who
is clearly very talented and could really use a break."
Although Timberlake was not present at the
ceremony Samberg said he would be willing to perform the song with
the singer at the main Primetime Emmys ceremony, to be held in Los
Angeles on September 16, reports the BBC.
