Channing Tatum Is SNL’s Sexiest Host

Stick a fork in me, I’m done. Channing Tatum hosted Saturday Night Live last night. While SNL has had some pretty funny sketches lately, I thought last night’s episode was hilarious. Maybe I was distracted by Channing’s beautiful, chiseled jaw line and bulging biceps. Or maybe the show’s season is finally picking up speed. Channing’s former career as a stripper was spoofed, along with some politicians, an open-shirted Channing as Matthew McConaughey and Lana del Rey, who bombed her performance in January. Whether you think this episode is funny or not, you don’t want to miss out on the multiple instances of Channing’s hip thrusts and lip licking.

And I just think everyone needs to see Channing Tatum rip his shirt off… Read More »


10 Actresses Who Should Be Hosting SNL

I have breaking news to report to all of you.

You won’t believe it.

Alec Baldwin hosted SNL (and Steve Martin made a guest appearance, it was funny. Watch it here.). Again. I’m not complaining because I love me some Jack Donaghy, but really guys? Was Steve Martin busy? (Actually, he wasn’t…he helped Baldwin host his 16th episode during his opening monologue). Also, has Bridesmaids not taught the SNL writers anything? Women are a lot funnier, nicer, smarter, skinnier and overall just plain better than men.

Now with that bashing aside: let me show you some potential hosts that would not only get the job done, but have hosted less then three times or haven’t hosted at all. Seriously, that is extremely low by SNL standards. Read More »


Ice Cream Flavors for College Students

Recently Ben & Jerry’s released an ice cream flavor called “Schweddy Balls”, based off a Saturday Night Live sketch. I thought it was hilarious. Parents thought it was awful. A parent group is protesting the flavor because they think it’s vulgar. Well guess what, parent group? If you are going to prevent your kid from eating ice cream because it has a vulgar name, then your kid is totally going to go wild when they go off to college.

So here are some ice cream flavors for wild college students.

1. Walk of Shame Surprise

This flavor would be packaged in a sparkly black carton, much like the dress you walked home in this morning. The ice cream would be made with stale beer and shame. Tons of shame.

2. Exam Cram

You spent this whole week partying when you should have been studying for your chem exam. Good thing Exam Cram is made with Red Bull, 5-Hour Energy and NoDoz pills. Read More »


Put This On Your iPod: The Lonely Island’s Incredibad

[Sarabeth here, back with some more jams to add to your iTunes library! Every Wednesday, I'm bringing you music suggestions - could be something new, old, hugely popular or fairly unknown -  to awesome-ify your  collection.]

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww sh*t! Musical talent doesn’t always have to come in the form of amazing voices. Sometimes great and hilarious lyrics (and an outlet on one of the country’s most well known shows) is all you need. Hearing “I’m On A Boat” this weekend at the bars just reminded me how awesome The Lonely Island is. And because I simply can’t wait for their 2011 album, I’m giving you Incredibad.

About the Band:
The Lonely Island is more of a comedy troupe rather than a band, consisting of Andy Samburg, Jorma Taccone, and Akiva Schaffer. While most people know them from SNL, these three have been making people laugh for way longer – since junior high school. Read More »

Girl Crush: Amy Poehler

amy poehlerAnyone who knows me know that I have a weak spot for funny people. Like, really, really ridiculously funny people. If you can’t make me laugh, then I want nothing to do with you. On the flipside, if you can make me ROFL, there’s a place in my bed heart for you.

And if your name is Amy Poehler, I’ll even share dessert with you (and I don’t share dessert with anyone).

I’ve been crushing on Amy hardcore since her early days on SNL. Amy’s quick wit and perfect timing proved once and for all that women don’t have to be ugly or lesbians to be successful comedians, and I tuned in every Saturday night to get my weekly dose of Poehler. She made a name for herself almost immediately, and was probably the only cast member who could fill Tina Fey’s shoes…er…chair on Weekend Update.

But Amy Poehler isn’t just an improv genius; the woman can act and has found herself in some of the best comedies everrr. Remember her infamous role in Mean Girls? How could you not? What about Wet Hot American Summer? Or Deuce Bigalow?  Amy stole the show and put those movies on the top of my “Best Movies to Watch While Stoned” list.  Needless to say, I was ecstatic when I found out about her NBC show, Parks and Recreation. And she didn’t disappoint.

Part of me wants to hate Amy Poehler for stealing my Hollywood boyfriend, Will Arnett, but I can’t. In fact, if I was gonna lose my future hubbie to anyone, I’m glad it was someone as talented, beautiful and effing hilarious as her. I just hope that one day I can get in on that shiz. A threesome with Poehler and Arnett? Probably the only thing better than an Arrested Development marathon.


We’ll Show You Who’s Funny

With Amy Poehler’s new sitcom, Parks and Recreation,MC premiering this month, and Tina Fey ruling Hollywood from atop a pile of Emmys, funny women are having a moment.  rounds up the pioneers, the visionaries, and the chemically imbalanced to talk about how we got here.

Can a pretty girl be funny?
MARGARET CHO (Lifetime’s upcoming Drop Dead Diva): I remember seeing beautiful girls do stand-up, and it was a disaster every time. Not only were people not gonna listen to you because you’re a woman, if you’re good-looking, people really don’t want to listen to you.

SUSIE ESSMAN (Curb Your Enthusiasm): I’ve had to give some young female comics advice about what they’re wearing. Like, you can’t wear something too provocative — it’s too confusing to the men in the audience. They don’t know if they wanna f**k you or laugh at you.

JOAN RIVERS (comedian): Phyllis Diller used to dress like a fool. Totie Fields was a big fat woman. In the beginning, women comedians were all grotesque in one way or another. Read More »
