Justin Bieber, Natalie Portman light up SNL's 100th digital short

Justin Bieber attends Saturday's annual Wango Tango concert at SoCal's Home Depot Center. 
What do you get the comic trio that has everything? Justin Bieber, Usher, Natalie Portman, Justin Timberlake, Jon Hamm and Michael Bolton, to start.
This was the case for Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone -- the masterminds behind "Saturday Night Live's" digital shorts -- who welcomed those bold names in celebration of their 100th clip for the sketch show. 

With an additional cameo from this weekend's host Will Ferrell, the short looked back at some of their classic short moments: Timberlake and Samberg's " ... In a Box" and its follow-ups "Mother Lover" and "Threeway" with Lady Gaga, Bolton's Capt. Jack Sparrow spoofing and Hamm's Sergio the Sax Man.
The reminiscing may seem sweet, but in true "SNL" fashion the men likened the trip down memory lane to a rather, um, gymnastic performance of self-pleasure. See what we're talking about in the video below.
Portman's cameo was a major surprise, as she's been off the radar playing mom to baby Aleph. "Yeah I had a baby, but I'm still crazy," she screams, proving she's still as hard as her first time around with the "SNL" boys.
Samberg, Schaffer and Taccone are the Lonely Island, you can catch more from them here.
