The Lonely Island's 'Popstar' Trailer Is Hilarious, Celeb-Filled, and NSFW

The Lonely Island guys -- Andy Samberg, Jorma Toccone, and Akiva Schaffer -- are finally hitting the big screen together in "Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping," and the trio just dropped the film's first, hilarious red band trailer.

The flick, a send-up of music documentaries in the vein of Justin Bieber's "Never Say Never," is brimming with big names in comedy and music, and stars Samberg as the superstar singer/rapper Conner4Real. Celebs including Simon Cowell, Carrie Underwood, and Usher gush in talking head interviews about Conner's genius (his latest album is called "Thriller, Also," after all), while the entertainer spends lavishly to have an Adam Levine hologram join him onstage, and employs a whopping 32 people in his personal entourage.

That ever-expanding crew includes his DJ (Taccone), his lyricist (Schaffer), and more unique members like his Dogg Father (Snoop Dogg, naturally), his bagpiper (Will Forte), and his Unicorn Handler (Pink).

"You know, it takes a village to make me look dope," Connor explains. Clearly.

If the big names listed above weren't enough, the flick also stars Sarah Silverman, Tim Meadows, and Maya Rudolph, and features cameos from DJ Khaled, Martin Sheen, Bill Hader, Joanna Newsom (Samberg's real-life wife), Will Arnett, and Seal (playing Connor's wolf handler, obviously), among many others. There's also a plot in there somewhere, but we're too busy giggling over all the ridiculous NSFW jokes and sight gags packed into this trailer.

"Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping" is due in theaters on June 3.
