Jessica Biel, Justin Timberlake Wedding Controversy: Leaked Wedding Video 'Mocking' Homeless, Poor Sparks Outrage [WATCH]

As beautiful and perfect as Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake's Italian wedding may have been, the newlyweds are now being widely criticized for a clip of a wedding video that leaked online entitled "'Greetings from your Hollywood friends who just couldn't make it." The video features a number of people (assumed to be homeless, poor, or simply "social rejects") giving their "best wishes" to the extremely-wealthy Hollywood couple on their big day. The video spoof, created by Timberlake's real estate agent buddy Justin Huchel, was meant to come off as a joke - but many people aren't laughing. Huchel's attorney has asked Gawker (the site that originally posted the 20-second clip of the supposed eight-minute long video) to take it down, or face a major lawsuit.

Sure, the video was meant to be a "private joke" between Huchel, Timberlake, and the rest of the small wedding party, but still - making fun of the poor, especially in this economy, while these people are off celebrating a luxurious wedding? Come on now!

Many Twitter/YouTube fans consider the video "tacky" and "disgusting:"

 "If your friends think you'd love a video mocking homeless people as a wedding gift YOU HAVE THE WRONG FRIENDS."

 "It's official I am no longer a @jtimberlake fan!! Unfollowing you right now! Mocking the homeless is wrong!"

"This is disgusting. Congratulations Huch and Rachel, you're a pair of utter t##ts."

"I wish them both a messy divorce. Its bound to happen anyway."

According to Huchel's attorney Michael Saltz, "Specifically, Mr. Huchel made a video to be used and exhibited privately at Justin Timberlake's wedding as a private joke without Mr. Timberlake's knowledge."
