Another Saturday Night Live Rap

Natalie Portman hosted last night, and the show itself was merely average (aren't they all these days?). Three saving graces:
Jamba Juice: Portman was funny and cute as an uber-hyper cashier with rainbow Punky Brewster hair. Very funny and accurate.
Sasha Cohen parody: Funny joke about Cohen choking. She's in joke contest, and confidently tells a short joke for the "short program", but for the "long program", she's nervous and messes up twice. Accurate as hell, since I can't stand Cohen. I think she's stuck up and overhyped, and I like it when she falls. She ALWAYS falls.
Rap: Natalie Portman raps. Another "SNL Digital Short", this started out as an interview, but her responses ended up being a vulgar rap. Very funny because it's the last thing you'd expect from her. I won't repeat anything here, but here's the link, and here's the video:



The rest of the show was just not funny. Oh well. At least there's the E! reruns everyday.


UPDATE: YouTube took the video away. They did that with the first Digital Short, Lazy Sunday. Sigh. I guess we'll just have to pay for this one too. But I downloaded the first one for free from iTunes before they started charging for it, so suck it, NBC! You're doing yourself a big non-favor by charging for the few things that don't suck on Saturday Night Live. I have an idea: Hey, let's charge people to download the Today Show! And Nightly News! And those late-night infomercials! Phone five!
