Never Stop Never Stopping with Lonely Island in the red-band Popstar trailer

When his new album fails to sell records, pop/rap superstar conner4real goes into a major tailspin and watches his celebrity high life begin to collapse. He'll try anything to bounce back, anything except reuniting with his old rap group The Style Boyz. Check out Akiva Schaffer, Andy Samberg and Jorma Taccone of the group Lonely Island as they take their comedy the mockumentary route in this trailer for POPSTAR!

While I love the idea of going the SPINAL TAP route for this, the trailer seemed more concerned about throwing as many actors, situations and cameos our way than actual jokes. Then again, it does have boobs, and that's more than most trailers can muster. The conflict is strong. Here's hoping that all of the really good stuff is being saved for the actual film.

POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING hits theaters on June 3, 2016.
