Last night Jesse Eisenberg was hosting Saturday Night Live. While he was giving his monologue intro, Andy Samberg popped in as he was dressed just like Mark Zuckerberg. Then the real Mark Zuckerberg decided to show up too. Check out the video and dialogue below:
Saturday Night Live did a parody of how Mark Zuckerberg was chosen as Person of the Year. In the parody, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange hacked Zuckerberg’s broadcast. “And I think we can all agree, that’s an algorithm for fun! *chuckle chuckle*” [BusinessInsider]
Sesame Street has been on a streak for making viral videos. We have seen Sesame Street parody the Old Spice guy and then they made a song called “There’s An App For That.” Now Sesame Street’s Cookie Monster has made a viral video in the form of a Saturday Night Live audition tape. Check out the video below:
Andy Samberg of Saturday Night Live created a sketch that mocks iPhone application advertisements that appear at the beginning of downloaded apps. In this sketch, Samberg tried to use a 911 application when burglars entered his house in the middle of the night. He accidentally sent movie tickets to “Rescue Dogs 3D” to everyone on his contact list. Check out the video below:
Last night Betty White hosted Saturday Night Live on NBC as the result of a Facebook campaign called Betty White to Host SNL (please?)! that launched in December 2009. The Facebook group has over 500,000 users.
I’m not a big fan of flatulence humor because I think it is used for cheap laughs. I was a bit disappointed with this video because of that reason. However I felt compelled to share this video any way because it parodies Twitter. Watch Ashton talk about Tooter in the video below:
When Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift during the MTV VMAs, it became a viral hit on the Internet. Now that Taylor Swift is hosting SNL, the slapstick comedy show wants to capitalize on the viral buzz. Kanye was called a jackass by President Barack Obama and was made fun of in countless parodies. “Imma let you finish but Beyonce has the greatest video of all time.” Above is a preview video of what can be expected.
The Shuffle keeps getting smaller and smaller. SNL made a skit in 2005 that made fun of that fact starring Tiny Fey and Amy Poehler. Perhaps next we’ll see the Micro, the Picenyo and the Invisa join the Shuffle line. BTW, the first few seconds of the video is blurry, but it gets better.
