Justin Timberlake "I Love Sports" Video From The ESPYs

ESPYs host Justin Timberlake stole the show Sunday night when ESPN broadcast its annual awards show, which was filmed last Wednesday at Los Angeles' Nokia Theater. Timberlake seamlessly transitioned from awestruck fan to master comedian and musician as he ribbed Kansas Jayhawks star Mario Chalmers for beating his beloved Memphis Tigers in the NCAA final, teased Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning for finally getting to see a woman naked after marrying his college sweetheart, Abby, and consoled Aaron Rodgers, Brett Favre's maybe-replacement in the Packers QB spot (not to mention announcing that Roger Clemens might be missing the next 5-10 ESPY awards, as well as a host of Mitchell Report jokes).

Below, watch Timberlake's musical number, "I Love Sports," where he reflected on the sports year that was, poked some fun at celebrity couples Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo and Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen, and made light of the wardrobe malfunction scandal from the 2004 Super Bowl halftime show (which, incidentally, was back in the news Monday when a court tossed the FCC's fine against CBS over the incident):

That was corny and tacky!

It's the ESPY Awards. It wasn't supposed to be the Kennedy Center Honors...

I'm not a fan of JT's music, but he's proven himself to be a solid all-around entertainer.

I refuse to believe that Justin Timberlake would steal any show.

I watched the ESPYs last night and Justin Timberlake's one man show. By all admissions, his performance was rather lame. He gets points for trying hard, but it's hard to make the ESPYs interesting. I'd bet money that the ESPYs gave ESPN their smallest nightly audience of the year.
