Cast and Crew of Mad Men Singing ‘Bye Bye Birdie’ Just As Awesome As You’d Hope

Here’s the funniest thing you’ll see all day: the cast and crew of Mad Men doing a spoof of the Ann-Margret classic, “Bye Bye Birdie.” Apparently — or at least according to the info section on its YouTube page — the video was done for creator Matthew Weiner, likely at the end of season three. Things to take note of, beyond that shot of John Slattery in a ginger wig: the joy on the normally joyless face of January Jones; Jon Hamm cutting a rug; Rich Sommers (Harry Crane) possibly naked; and Elisabeth Moss fiddling with her Blackberry. Also: Robert Morse, looking as sprightly as ever. Watch after the jump and prepare to spend the rest the day with “Birdie” stuck in your head.

Plug Pulled on Josh Brolin Pic

Josh Brolin might become a certifiable mainstream star this summer after the release of Jonah Hex , but Universal isn’t waiting around to find out. The studio has canceled the shoot for Asger Leth’s Cartel , a drug drama that was to star Brolin and begin production in Mexico City next month. Too bad: this revenge story of a man whose wife is brutally murdered, forcing him to infiltrate Mexican drug cartels, had “gangbusters business in the women 15-35 demographic!” written all over it.
