Bush Meets Palin On “Weekend Update Thursday”

Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 24, 2008 //

On last night’s “Weekend Update Thursday” — “Saturday Night Live”‘s special election coverage — Will Ferrell showed up to do a skit as George W. Bush, with Tina Fey as Sarah Palin. It was gosh darn hysterical and definitely a teaser for the material Ferrell is going to do in his upcoming comedy show, “You’re Welcome America — A Final Night With George W. Bush”, coming to Broadway in February 2009. One quibble about the skit — Tina’s new bangs are all wrong. [Variety] Keep reading »

Monday Menage: A Sneak Peak of “Nailin’ Paylin!”

SimchaOctober 20, 2008 //

This weekend Sarah Palin did Saturday Night Live and her Double-D doppleganger did a skin flick for Hustler called “Nailin’ Paylin!” So, how does the porn star stack up next to Tina Fey’s dead-on impression? Well, in this SFW promo interview, Lisa Anne’s busting out of her business suit and cracking us up! Who says porn stars can’t act? She can definitely fake it! Now, if you want to see how Paylin handles foreign affairs, watch her negotiating with two Russian men in our SFW Monday Menage after the jump! Sigh, if only we could solve all our diplomatic problems with a threesome. [Trend Hunter]

Sarah Palin: The Most Sexist Of Them All

Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 20, 2008 //

This weekend, Sarah Palin finally made her much anticipated appearance on “Saturday Night Live”, showing up in two skits written just for her. To tell you the truth, it seemed like the show was actually laughing at Palin rather than with her — the second skit, featuring Amy Poehler rapping, was seriously pretty…insulting. Additionally, the “highlight” of the first sketch was when Alec Baldwin told Palin that she was “hotter in person.” Considering her campaign thought Tina Fey’s portrayal was sexist, it was very interesting that she participated in a comedy routine which only focused on her physical appearance. Personally, this just supports my theory that the most sexist treatment of Palin comes from Palin herself. Keep reading »

Sarah Palin Does “Saturday Night Live”

Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 19, 2008 //

Last night Governor Sarah Palin, the Republican nominee for Vice-President, made not one, but two cameos on “Saturday Night Live”. I have to say, she was pretty funny! Although, if she and her handlers think all the talk of her hotness is sexist, is she contributing to the sexism by doing a skit where Alec Baldwin tells her she’s “way hotter in person”? Whatever, I laughed. Above, her first cameo (featuring special guests Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, AND Mark “Say Hi To Your Motha For Me” Wahlberg, and after the jump, the second, in which she thankfully does NOT rap.

Justin Timberlake Rocks The Voting Box

SimchaOctober 15, 2008 //

Justin Timberlake has put his “Dick In A Box,” but now he wants to stuff something else in there: a ballot! In this remix of his classic song for “Saturday Night Live”, JT rocks the vote! {Although, maybe not everyone can get down to change.) Jessica Biel is beautiful, but she makes for a bad fly girl. He should have asked Barack to be his back up dancer! [World of Wonder]

Five Skits For Sarah Palin On SNL

Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 14, 2008 //

Rumor has it, Sarah Palin is going to appear on this Saturday’s episode of “Saturday Night Live”, and while everyone seems to think she’ll end up spoofing Tina Fey’s American Express commercial, I’m kinda hoping she’ll poke fun at herself. Were I talented enough to be a head writer at “SNL” and persuasive enough to be Sarah Palin’s press secretary, these are the five skit concepts I would go with for her appearance on the sketch comedy show. Oh hell, just make her the host!

The Frisky’s 8 Things That Should Be Sexy, But Aren’t

SimchaOctober 7, 2008 //

Ironically, many of the items marketed for sexy times are actually huge turnoffs. Like a skirt-chasing guy who reeks of desperation, they’re gross, they’re unnecessary, and they make things uncomfortable. These eight products can be used to show of your goods, but we don’t recommend it:

Chocolate Cooch Hugh Hefner’s #1 girlfriend recently gave him a very intimate birthday present: a chocolate mold of her vagina. They just broke up, so apparently it wasn’t enough. Keep reading »

The Breakup Diaries: Laughter Is The Best Medicine

Amelia McDonell-ParryOctober 6, 2008 //

This weekend, Anne Hathaway hosted “Saturday Night Live”. Her opening monologue was the funniest of the season, so far, as she poked fun at her breakup with Italian lothario/scammer Raffaello Follieri . The appearance not only made me like Hathaway more — she’s not the little priss from “The Princess Diaries” after all! — but it also made me think about the notion of laughter being the best medicine during a breakup.

Clips: Tina Fey Stops By SNL To Play Sarah Palin

Amelia McDonell-ParrySeptember 14, 2008 //

Did you catch Tina Fey portraying her long-lost-twin, Sarah Palin, on Saturday Night Live last night? How do you think she did? Personally, I thought her vocal inflections and mannerisms were dead on — I wonder how much it would cost them to have her play the role for at least the rest of the election? Keep reading »
