The hilarious new spoof critics say will be the Zoolander of this decade.

 

‘Popstar: Never stop stopping.’

If you’re a Belieber, the title for The Lonely Island’s new film may ring a few bells. No?

How about Justin Bieber’s 2011 documentary, ‘Never Say Never‘?

Yep. We thought so too.

Scheduled for a US release on June 5th and produced by Judd Apatow, the film is being hailed as the Zoolander of 2016.

You have: Snoop Dogg, Dj Khaled, Simon Cowell, Usher, Sarah Silverman, Maya Rudolph, Bill Hader, Will Arnett and Adam Levine.

The level of star power is almost unbelievable – so much so that one can only wonder if some additions joined in an effort to skip the firing line.

The trailer is loaded with more nods to the pop king than one of his own music videos.

Not only does Andy Samberg mimic his signature interview style (read: nonsense metaphors about life) but also his penchant for surrounding himself with yes men, engaging in sporting activities and indulging in useless luxury items.

The direct hit at Bieber is all but formally acknowledged, we’ll keep our ear to the ground for any defamation suits.

Lonely Island, it might be too late to say sorry.
