Beyonce had second thoughts about doing that infamous 2008 Saturday Night Live sketch where Justin Timberlake auditions for her video, he reveals in a new interview.

To calm her nerves, Timberlake popped by her dressing room in a robe covering a leotard, he tells CBS' Katie Couric in an interview for next week's pre-Grammy special.

He then dropped the robe and stood there.

Timberlake said Beyonce was like, "I can't look anywhere but your face right now!"

The sketch later become an Internet hit, as did his other raunchy "D--k in a Box" spoof, costarring Andy Samberg .

What did he mom think of that skit?

She thought it was funny.

"You gotta meet my mom," Timberlake told Couric. "She's a pretty edgy chick!"

Also edgy? Madonna , with whom he collaborated on the hit "4 Minutes."

He said he wasn't intimidated working with her.

"She's short, so I wasn't afraid at all," he said. "It's very personal to have that kind of experience with someone."

Look back at Madonna's most controversial moments!

As for his acting career, he said, "I have a day job, so [acting] becomes a hobby that I can really plunge into with full creative eagerness."

    Wow to some of these comments. I feel so sad for ppl that have nothing better happening in their life to result in being bitter on a petty topic as your opinion on a skit. Well my comment was actually I enjoy the skits, think he is entertaining, and seems to have good character with him at all times. In the same I do not consider him a heart throb, but as a talented entertainer.

    I am sorry but I have to comment on JT's performance last night at the Grammy's with Al Green. I just want someone to tell him, that he is a pop singer not a soul singer. He sounded horrible and was ruining the song. Also, he is not funny, and someone needs to tell him the truth. In his monolog he was trying to be funny so hard, and it was not working.

    This is a dumb story. An obviously, Timberlake's completely gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    does justin know that when he wears hats it brings out his nose. and thats not a good thing. hats make him look like a old man or mr magoo. check out his pictures. spread the word. just maybe he will stop the madness. he is a nice looking man. but hats are not his friend.
