Saturday Night Live‘s Andy Samberg and his fellow “I’m On A Boat” Grammy nominee T-Pain extend their collaborative relationship with a new video posted to Funny Or Die.
In the clip, Samberg gets his Auto-Tune on by serenading a hermit crab (hot), using the I Am T-Pain iPhone application. The “Buy U A Drank” rapper then calls Andy up, and they make several references to “I’m On A Boat.” And scones. Pain then fronts like he didn’t even know there was an I Am T-Pain app.
Not sure if this latest effort falls under the “funny” or “die” category—in fact, T-Pain’s “Take Your Shirt Off” music video is far more of a knee-slapper—but hop below and judge for yourself. More »
Sure, the Christmastime setting of Justin Timberlake’s Saturday Night Live skit in which he dresses up as a cup of soup and retrofits “Shoop,” “Drop It Like It’s Hot,” and “Whoomp! There It Is” for the purposes of collecting cash for a charity–and out-hipping the sad-sack Salvation Army Santa who only knows moldy old carols–seems a bit odd, given that the calendar was just flipping to May 10 when it happened. But you have to admit that even while in instant-lunch drag, his performance doesn’t come off as foam-handed in the least. (EDIT: Oh, it did air in December; this is what happens when you watch TV via online “Recently Updated” lists, ha ha. The sequel clip, in which JT dresses up as a breast implant and invites people on down to “Plasticville”, is below.) Meanwhile, if you somehow didn’t have “Motherlover”–Timberlake and Andy Samberg’s Mother’s Day-themed sequel to “Dick In A Box”–e-mailed to you 10 times over the past 36ish hours, it’s after the jump.

The Valentine’s Day episode of Saturday Night Live was a somewhat painful affair, with the normally reliable Alec Baldwin locking his gaze with the teleprompter a lot, perhaps because he wanted to get awful skits like the “Wii makes you look like you’re jerking off” one* over as quickly as possible. Meanwhile, musical guests the Jonas Brothers suffered through the painful sound system during the sorta Andrew WK-ish “Tonight” and the jaunty “Video Girl,” and were apparently compensated by being allowed to appear in a few skits. Andy Samberg‘s reimagining of the three Jonases as poofy-haired glam rockers called Property For The Queen was a treat, though, perhaps because the songs in the short had the advantage of being professionally mixed before they were broadcast. Clips after the jump.
As a devoted fan of Hot Rod, it would seem like… More »
