IF YA LIKE IT THEN YA SHOULDA PUT A RANNG ON IT!





lololololol laughing my face off. also i apologize in advance for the fact that this post is really just me free-associating, there's barely any continuity.

The "making of single ladies" parody video is down pretty much everywhere because of copyright law, but I VEHEMENTLY encourage you to watch it if you can hunt it down or spare the $1.99 for it on itunes.

I swear, anything from the deluded mind of Andy Samberg is somehow comedic gold. Maybe it's just my acute love of jewish men talking, but I am all over anything he and his crew does. If you have a few free moments to yourself and enjoy laughing check out: thelonelyisland.com. Andy, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone are too much. They remind me of the awkward nerdy guys I wish I had hung out with in highschool...though, my highschool had no boys....

Also, Justin Timberlake is really hilarious. I used to love him simply because...well...he is Justin Timberlake. That faux-jheri curl thing he had going on set my eight-year old heart afire back in the day to the point that I didn't even know what to do with myself. I shamelessly shelled out a hundred dollars to see the futuresex loveshow (over-the-top, misguided, sexist dissapointment of a concert...) a year or two ago because I was nostalgic. But even I cringed when it was announced that he would do his first SNL episode....he was a musician, just a suave, pretty faced, machine programmed to "OOoo" and turn on that sexy falsetto romancy voice that screams "BED ME" at specific intervals to make dEm laDiiEz gO WiiLD. I was pleasantly surprised when I found that my boo (forgive me) had some chops, and am always delighted at his subsequent SNL appearances. I guess the Mickey Mouse Club taught that boy well.


Beyonce didn't do too badly either(apparently she's terrible to work with, forgets lines a lot) though, she didn't have to do much more than be herself and look cute. And dayum, she's got some killer legs. I'm no prolific Beyonce' follower, but I am in love with "If I Were a Boy". Also, I see she is rockin' an all black female band these days? Has that always been the case? Kudos kudos kudos. It's not entirely revolutionary, but it's just something I noticed and have to give girlfrennn (or her record label) credit where credit is due. "Single Ladies" is real catchy, it makes me want to wear my "Strong, Smart, Bold" Girl's inc shirt and shout lyrics from a rooftop...kind of (there are some things a little wonky in her logic in that song, but it's relate-able, so that's a step in the right direction). It's funny though, her voice sounds a little Rihanna-esque at one point.

That's all I've got for ya for now...
