Conan O'Brien on Rebecca Black

Conan being Conan, i knew it wouldn't take long before he'd do something to cash in on Rebecca Black's unexpected online notoriety...



it's rather unfortunate that a young girl like Rebecca Black could attract this much flak and level of animosity, but after enduring 1 minute of "Friday" (below) -- i just couldn't go through the rest of it -- i'm beginning to see why.



and if you expect Conan O'Brien and his rascally staff to watch idly by while this goes on right under their noses, well... you can think again. and i think they have stumbled on the right combination.

Autotune + Monotone Delivery + Mind-Numbingly Inane Lyrics = Priceless

gwyneth paltrow on SNL

i know this is rather late. actually i'd been meaning to write about this for ages, but just couldn't find the right time for it. (i wrote a draft of this post in my laptop a couple of weeks ago; unfortunately, my laptop's hard drive got fried.) still, better late than never i guess, so here goes...

gwyneth paltrow delivered a nicely rounded stint in Saturday Night Live (SNL). she was showcased in several well-applauded skits, but my favorite is their hilarious segment on Shakespearean "previews".


it's a good thing gwyneth paltrow has the acting chops and the vocal range to pull this off.

another SNL skit that stood out for me involves Cee Loo Green. if have watched and appreciated gwyneth paltrow's number "Forget You" in Glee, then you'll appreciate this even more. word substitutions for cuss words flew fast and thick here, and it's a wonder not one of them slipped. anyways, enjoy!



needless to day, i was chuckling helplessly while trying to keep track with what everyone was really saying. all in all, this was a great SNL episode.
