[ ding! ]Justin Timberlake: How — how could you remember him?
Lady Gaga: He said he loves my music. You don’t forget something like that!

[ buzz! ]Lady Gaga: If I may, Vince: They promote musical education.
Vince Blight: Thanks, Gaga! And, uh, who are you playing for?
Lady Gaga: I am playing for the People of Japan, of course.
Vince Blight: Of course! Playing for any other cause would be a slap in their face! [ Timberlake is visibly annoyed ] So, Justin — you ready to forget the next name?
Justin Timberlake: [ irked ] Okay! Alright! I just want to say that I meet a lot of people every day, and I love ALL of my fans, okay? But when you only spend two minutes with someone in passing, it’s hard to remember their names!
Vince Blight: That’s fair. Okay, no worry, J.T. Next clue shouldn’t be hard. Bring him out1
