Bristol Palin Was This Close To Being Tina Fey’s Baby Sitter

“I can’t imagine Bristol would have been too psyched to [babysit] anyway; it was her 18th birthday, she was in New York City, and I had made a vicious joke about her a week earlier. But I appreciated the mom-ness of Mrs. Palin’s offer … I thanked her, saying Alice was too little to stay for the show.”

Tina Fey shares in her new book, Bossypants, that when Sarah Palin appeared on “SNL” in 2008, she offered up daughter Bristol Palin to babysit for Tina’s daughter, Alice, on set. This was, err, while Tina was doing her famous impersonation of her. The fact that she would still offer that is almost enough to make me like Sarah Palin. For a minute, anyway.

Jesse Eisenberg And Mark Zuckerberg Come Face-To-Face On “SNL”

Ahh, “Saturday Night Live.” Thank you for making our interwebian dreams come true. On Saturday’s episode, Jesse Eisenberg of “The Social Network” hosted and in his opening monologue, shared with us his knowledge of the menstrual cycle. Soon after, he was joined on stage by (Andy Samberg and) Mark Zuckerberg, the Facebook creator who Jesse portrayed not-so-flatteringly in the movie. It was every bit as awkward as we all imagined. Oh, but I did have a few breakthroughs while watching: First, I realized that these two dudes share the second half of their last names. And also that Zuckerberg sounds a lot like a not-so-happy Kermit the Frog. Keep reading »

Scarlett Johansson Spoofs “The Millionaire Matchmaker”

The only thing better than an actual episode of “The Millionaire Matchmaker”? Scarlett Johansson’s impression of Patti Stanger on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend. You might not think with that blond hair and alabaster skin that Scarlett could pull of a convincing Patti, but she nails that Jersey accent! [NBC.com] Keep reading »

Scarlett Johansson’s New “SNL” Promos

I’ve been pumped for this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” since it was announced that Scarlett Johansson is hosting and Arcade Fire will be the musical guest. And the new promo, with Scarlett and Jason Sudeikis, gives me even higher expectations. This might be the best pairing ever. Keep reading »

Emma Stone And Andy Samberg Make Funnies


This week’s “Saturday Night Live” should be good. Not only is the musical guest Kings of Leon, whose new album we love, but the host is Emma Stone. This lady got her start on the VH1 reality series “In Search of the New Partridge Family.” And four short years later, she captured our hearts in “Easy A.” Maybe we needed a new redhead to fill the hole left by Lindsay Lohan?

Lindsay Lohan To Maybe Host “Saturday Night Live”

We’ve given Lindsay Lohan oodles of suggestions for things she can do to get her career back on track after her stint in jail, some time in rehab, and a possible baby stroller hit-and-run last week. But, apparently, Lindsay doesn’t need our help. LiLo is currently in talks to host “Saturday Night Live” on December 4th. Keep reading »

Men Prefer Betty White


I heart Betty White, but not as much as this dude. He’s probably the guy who bought this naked painting of her… Anyway, I cannot friggin’ wait for Ms. White to host “Saturday Night Live” this weekend! Although this awesomely hilarious song may be a better tribute. This hot track is right — beautiful girls of the world ain’t got nothin’ on you, Betty! [WOW Report] Keep reading »

Betty White’s Badass “SNL” Promo

On May 8, Betty White is gonna kill it on “Saturday Night Live.” How do I know? Well, just check out this commercial for her guest spot. Radonkulous! Now, it’s clearly time to start a Facebook group to get Rue McClanahan, aka “Blanche Devereaux,” a hosting slot too. Stay Golden! Keep reading »

Tina Fey Gives The People What They Want: Another Sarah Palin Impersonation

Tina Fey returned to “Saturday Night Live” last night to host with the terrifying musical guest Justin Bieber. She made us long for the days — was it only two years ago? — when “SNL” had Tina every week!

We can’t just pick one a-maz-ing clip from Saturday, so we’re posting three of the best. Here’s Tina in the “Sarah Palin Network” skit and, after the jump, “Brownie Husband” and a “Women’s News” segment from “The Weekend Update.” Enjoy! Keep reading »

Gabourey Sidibe Is Hosting “SNL”!

How excited are we that Gabourey Sidibe has scored a gig hosting “SNL”? Eat that, Howard Stern! I love how even though the world has been literally riding her ass about her weight, that it hasn’t stopped her from moving forward with her career. Go Gaby! There’s no date set yet, but we’ll be watching anyways to see Betty White host on May 8. I’m hoping for a sketch where Gaby goes on her “I’d hit that” dream date with Gerard Butler. Could be funny. I’m feeling renewed faith in “SNL.” [Celebitchy]
