Famous NPR Voices Parody Lady Gaga’s ‘Telephone’ (The One)

Filed under: Videos , News / Politics , Music , The One All my favorite National Public Radio personalities joined together for an epically nerdy lipdub of Lady Gaga ‘s ‘ Telephone ?’ What a world. NPR producer Shereen Marisol Meraji brought Nina Totenberg, Ari Shapiro, Robert Siegel and more to perform the deliciously dorky rendition, inspired by the 82nd Airborne’s version . We can only hope for a bluegrassy Lake Wobegon version someday. Share via:// Metafilter We get it — you’re busy. Only have time for one web bit a day?

Lady Gaga Walking Around in Underwear of the Day

I guess Lady Gaga realized that every popstar who was in the game before her and who is far more talented and interesting than her have the ability to copy her sexed up pantsless “performing artist” bullshit act that she copied from other people….and prove that shit is bullshit, cuz they do it fucking better than her despite her claiming it is her act that she created, so she’s decided to walk around in her underwear, cuz she knows how to manipulate society, and yes, half naked is all it takes, it is that easy, but unfortunately, on Gaga it’s pretty fucking vile, but I feel like you’ll be able to love yourself to this, cuz you have no taste and I guess, neither do I…. AND THE CLOSE-UP….. Pics via Fame

Betty White Is A ‘Legend,’ ‘Saturday Night Live’ Castmembers Say

‘She’s still about 15 years old,’ ‘SNL’ alum Ana Gasteyer says of the 88-year-old host. By Josh Wigler Betty White on “SNL” May 8, 2010 Photo: NBC At 88 years old, Betty White proved she was golden as host of “Saturday Night Live,” performing sidesplitting sketches into the wee hours of Sunday morning. As if that weren’t impressive enough, the comedian then made her way to the “SNL” afterparty . “We got through it!” White declared on her way into Doc’s Steakhouse in New York, shortly after wrapping her highly anticipated (and hilarious) hosting turn over the weekend. With assists from several female “SNL” vets, including Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph and Tina Fey, who came onboard as part of the evening’s Mother’s Day tribute, White led the NBC variety show to its best ratings in 18 months. But it wasn’t just fans that approved of White’s showing; castmembers were equally impressed by the “Golden Girls” actress. “She was incredible,” “SNL” alumna and guest star Ana Gasteyer gushed. “She’s still about 15 years old.” Asked to pick White’s greatest moment of the evening, “SNL” creator and producer Lorne Michaels couldn’t narrow it down: “Pretty much the whole night!” For castmember Bobby Moynihan, getting to play White’s husband in the latest Manuel Ortiz Show sketch was a personal highlight. “I was married to her,” he enthused. “I’ll take that to my grave!” “Just having her there, she’s such a legend,” returning “SNL” vet Molly Shannon chimed in. “She was phenomenal.” The night’s musical guest also had high praise for the 88-year-old actress. Jay-Z devoted his second-act song, “Young Forever,” to White . Asked if White had called the rapper “Hov” (one of his many aliases) backstage, Shannon laughed: “No, not that I saw. We were too busy getting dressed up and stuff.” How would you rate the Golden Girl’s performance on “SNL”? Let us know in the comments!

HIV Positive Bio-Terrorist Story of the Day

Here’s a funny story I am posting as a warning to all the diseased whores around the world, mainly the ones in Hollywood, who have such serious egos and who are so self involved that when they get word of their HIV Positive results, they don’t get phased, because to them it just means they now have a license to have unprotected sex, because they’ve got the worst unprotected sex has to offer and they have to live with the shit for the rest of their lives, and if some other asshole wants to make the same mistake as them, then that’s their problem, they paid their dues proper to have the ability to have raw sex without worrying….now can not only get charged with attempted murder, but also with Bio-Terrorism, especially if they bite their neighbor’s lip….
