Saturday Night Live's parody of the Justin Bieber Calvin Klein advert is brilliant
Cecily Strong as Lara Stone behaves pretty much how anyone would when made to stand near Bieber

Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

Your support makes all the difference.SNL cast member Kate McKinnon has made an incredible parody of *that* Justin Bieber campaign for Calvin Klein.
McKinnon’s impression on the latest episode of Saturday Night Live is spot on, spoofing the look and poses in the monochrome advert, as well as providing an insight into what Bieber might have got up to during production.
The series of adverts - which also feature Cecily Strong as model Lara Stone - open with McKinnon as Bieber saying "I’m a big boy now", followed by a failed attempt at some push ups.
"I’m not supposed to drink but… I do," 'Bieber' says, taking a sip from a juice box.
'Bieber' is also seen crying and kicking a scooter before announcing: "Yo, all this underwear's making me tired."
Cecily Strong as Lara Stone behaves pretty much how anyone would when made to stand near Bieber.
At least we can be thankful that Calvin Klein didn’t use his music in the original advert.
