Sesame Street is like the Saturday Night Live of kids shows when it comes to celebrity guest appearances and just like the late night sketch comedy show, the guests don’t always nail their performances. Cut to Katy Perry’s segment on the show, in which she sings a kiddie version of her song “Hot Or Cold” to an indecisive Elmo.
I’m not going to make fun of Katy for the lame lyrics to the Sesame Street version of her song or even her outfit. She probably didn’t have much choice when it came to either of those things… However, what the hell is up with those facial expressions. Obviously acting with a fake monster who’s being operated by a man’s hand against a green screen isn’t the easiest thing to fake, but she managed to do it semi-decently in the “California Gurls” video.
Maybe Katy’s just not at home when there isn’t Ready Whip busting out of her chesticles?
Keanu Reeves certainly does. He’s taken a break from being Sad Keanu to chat up co-star Alex Winter and the writers of the original Bill and Ted movies, Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon, about the possibility of a third movie:
Reeves said: ”We’re trying. Alex and I are still friends and we’re talking, and we’re talking to Chris and Ed. They’re going to try and see if they can write something. To me, I’d love to play the role. I’d love to work with Alex and Chris and Ed again. We’ll see what they do. I’m meeting people now – they’ve shown the film to their kids. We just seek to entertain.”
I don’t think I’ve heard news this exciting since I heard about Justin Bieber at Hooters (I’m a pretty excitable person). When I was a young child, full of whimsy and curiosity, my older stoner sister and I could only agree on three movies:Labyrinth, Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, and this really creepy Claymation movie about Mark Twain. And sure, when I told my friend about this movie she asked “what are they going to call it, Bill and Ted’s Tubular Mid-Life Crisis?” And yes, George Carlin was an integral part of the movies. But my seven-year-old, “why is 69 their favorite number?” self cannot help but be thrilled.
To his long-time girlfriend, Jill McCormick, who seems just lovely. And she kind of looks like a young Christy Turlington (boy, pulling out all of the eighties and nineties stops on this one — Eddie Vedder? Christy Turlington? Who’s next, Jem and the Holograms?).
Vedder proposed to McCormick last year at the Kennedy Honors Gala in Washinton DC, and according to friends, had been planning for the small, intimate wedding the entire time since. The couple’s two daughters were in attendance, as well as friends of the couple including Jack Johnson and Sean Penn.
OK. I know we all have varying opinions of Britney Spears ranging from ‘goddess’ to ‘psychopath’ to ‘dribbling, drooling mental patient,’ but there’s one thing that you can’t deny, one thing that we’ve all just got to be on the same page about: the nastiness of her stinking, tangled weave.
Britney was photographed yesterday in LA grabbing a sweet treat and donning what looks like … I don’t even know. I’ve written about this botched weave in so many other posts that I’ve used up all of my good analogies. It looks like fucking hell, is what it does. End of story, minus the frilly words.
And her boyfriend, Jay-Jay Trawick? Unless he totally gets off over ‘running’ his fingers through his girl’s hair during foreplay (only to find an entire grape PushPop stuck in there somewhere), he’s just as much to blame when it comes to the couple’s failing joint hygiene standards.
I would like to tell you that the term “retard” is very offensive to me. I am not offended because I ASSUME it would offend someone who has mental retardation. I am offened on how the word came to...
I am not offended that Rosie has a fear or anxiety of LP. I feel that when someone knows very little about things and or people they tend to be anxious. Think about it if you had never been around someone...
