It was really only a matter of time before Justin Bieber's Calvin Klein ad, by itself already a subject of controversy, became fodder for mockery. And in a recent Saturday Night Live episode, Kate McKinnon hilariously recreates the cumbersome ad.
In the sketch, McKinnon slips into The Biebs shoes and takes pot shots at the music superstar's alleged reputation of being a brat. The skit also references on the recent controversy surrounding the ads, where Bieber was accused of padding the crotch area for the infamous underwear line.

According to reports, Bieber reportedly digitally enhanced the crotch area, which of course, prompted ire from the online community.
The parody has thus far received positive reviews, notable considering this was the SNL episode for the new year-establishing that the cast is starting strong for 2015.
Notable scenes include McKinnon pointing to a tattoo and saying, "this tattoo made me go owie." And "I'm not supposed to drink, but I do," at which point, Strong arrives and hands the 20 year old singer a juice box.
McKinnon's performance included Cecily Strong, who played the model opposite Bieber in the ad, Lara Stone.
While the ad certainly takes the cake in terms of being a hilarious parody, SNL wasn't the first to mock the ad of the famous pop star, known as much for his musical prowess as he is for his off-screen antics.
Previously, fellow pop super star, Miley Cyrus, took to social media and photo shopped herself on the now infamous images from the Calvin Klein photo shoot.
