at the start of the Super Bowl this past Sunday,
our first guest was just your average 13-year-old
from Scituate, Massachusetts.
By the end of the game, he was internationally famous.
Please welcome, selfie kid Ryan McKenna.
Well, boy, your life has changed hasn't it?
This is so amazing.
So first of all, that was a big deal even
to go to the Super Bowl, right?
And you were Patriots fan, I can see that.
My dad told me two weeks before, and I just started crying,
I couldn't believe it.
Just to go to the Super Bowl, a dream come true.
Yeah of course.
And then you just happened to be seated in the section,
you had no idea, no one was warned that Justin
would go in that area, right?
No, so we didn't know.
We knew we were, the lady told us
that we were in a good section, but we had no idea
that Justin was going to be there.
So then Justin comes up and you weren't, to me it
looked like you were right there,
but you got yourself there.
You were a few rows back, right?
Yeah I got myself there.
I pushed through.
I was elbowing people, but I got there and I was there with him
right.
So then everybody's watching you struggle with your phone,
and it looked to me like you were really
trying to all of a sudden unlock it, right?
That's what you were doing?
All the memes, I've seen those.
I had a video that I had when I was going out,
because my dad told me was coming up.
So I had to push out there.
But I had the video of when I was going,
when I was going to Justin.
And then I had the iPhone 6, that things slow.
So it just shut off.
And then I had to, that's why all the memes formed.
Like who is Justin Timberlake, and what are
the words to "Can't Stop the Feeling?"
I had get the camera back out to get the selfie with Justin.
I mean, what an amazing thing that he stopped right there.
You remind me of him actually you look like him.
I've seen things, because he had curly hair
when he was my age and stuff.
Yeah he does, he did sort of look like that.
There's someone on the phone that wants to say hi to you
right now.
Justin?
Brian.
Oh my god!
It's nice to meet you, finally.
Oh my god.
I can't believe this.
How are you doing, man?
I'm awesome, how are you, man?
First of all, Justin, that was so cool.
The performance was amazing.
You were absolutely incredible.
Like flawless.
Like you were just perfection.
It was so cool.
And then, when you did that, I thought
that was so cool that you went into the stands,
and then you do this selfie with him.
And that was obviously not planned.
Well so basically, we were trying to put--
thank you, first of all, I hope you got my signal to you.
It's like the first thing I did in the performance.
I got it.
So you told me to rub my belly in a sexual way, which
is counter-intuitive for me.
I'm not gonna lie.
I feel like I worked it in there.
You did, and people noticed.
A lot of people tweeted me and told me they saw it.
So for sure, we saw it.
Yeah.
Go ahead.
So basically I asked, I knew that I wanted
to end the performance with "Can't Stop the Feeling"
just because I see how people respond to that song.
And then cut to Ryan.
Cut to Ryan.
Ryan becomes, part of your performance.
He's remembered as much as that amazing performance.
How does that feel, Ryan?
Yeah, it's so crazy he's awesome,
he's just an awesome dancer, singer, and everything so yeah.
He really is.
He's a very special guy.
Everybody loves Justin.
And now, you are a part of his life.
And he probably, I'm sure he'll send you money
and he'll do all kinds of things.
Right?
Do you have anything for him at all Justin?
I tell you what I want to do, I tell you what I want to do,
because it was so unexpected that you came down.
And because all of this has happened, I thought to myself,
I really want to meet you properly.
So I'm going to be coming to TD Garden on tour
to play in Boston, so I'd like to invite you
and your family to come and Ellen [INAUDIBLE]..
What a show that is, too.
As you know, I mean you saw that he puts on an incredible show.
That's going to be amazing.
And I know that your family is here,
and you're all New England Patriots fans,
so the NFL is giving you a VIP experience the New England
Patriots home game next season, and you'll
get four tickets to a game, and four pre-game field passes.
That's also happening.
Justin, we love you, thanks for calling in.
I love you too, Ellen.
Ryan, I look forward to meeting you,
and our second selfie together.
Yeah, definitely.
Alright, we'll see you later.
We'll be right back.
Hi, I'm Andy.
Ellen asked me to remind you to subscribe to her channel
so you can see more awesome videos.
Like videos of me getting scared or saying embarrassing things.
Like ball peen hammer.
And also some videos of Ellen and other celebrities,
if you're into that sort of thing.
