And The Band Played On? Well, If Bill Cosby’s Funeral Goes As Planned… (Video)

Always interesting realization: The greatest comedians make us laugh at that we’d normally cry about.

This one… just watch! And WHY will you find yourself laughing and clapping about the Cos’ funeral preparations??? Enjoy this Roots-Cos “collabo” clip!

Comedy: Lily Allen – “Hard Out Here” (Video)

You know it’s “Hard Out Here” for a … b!tch. That’s how the song goes, right? Lily Allen taking some tongue-in-cheek shots at the entertainment industry’s treatment of women using cute pop music (and a video with sprinkled with some eye candy) as a delivery vehicle.

“Forget your balls and grow a pair of tits…” – Lily Allen

What??? Hahahaaaaa!

Politics: Saudi Artist & Activist ‘Hisham Fageeh’ Channels Bob Marley With His Viral Internet Hit “No Woman, No Drive” (Video)

Interesting. To be certain, this women’s rights issue-driven video could have been delivered with a more serious tone; but 26-year-old Saudi comedian/activist Hisham Fageeh likely ‘toned down’ his Bob Marley-inspired song “No Woman, No Drive” – as to be too fiery would put the performer, and any involved with the vid’s production/distribution, under fire.

A couple of months [after the “No Woman, No Drive” song was created], Twitter was abuzz with talk that Saudi Arabian women would defy the ban on driving by mounting a demonstration on October 26, Fageeh and his two friends, Saudi musicians Fahad Albutairi and Alaa Wardi, decided to produce a video to coincide with the day of protest.

– The Daily Beast

I like that this points out injustice, then pokes a stick at it… in sort of a fun way, but even that is done with substantial socio-political risk. On another note, Fageeh’s pretty good for someone who “doesn’t really listen to music.” Dude definitely getting his Bobby McFerrin on (e.g. with the ‘body music’ with a message). Wonder if there will be any ‘response videos’ from pro-conservatives of Saudi?

While the Saudi government officials issued harsh warnings to political dissenters or anyone supporting female drivers, there have been no reported arrests or fines, and the young comedian says he’s not afraid in the least. So far, he tells The Daily Beast, he’s gotten “nothing but love” in response to the video, from everyone from Saudi grandmothers to New York hipsters. “It resonated with people,” he says. “It was relevant to them.”

– The Daily Beast

By the way, you can buy the track (name your price)…

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (Trailer)

Hilarious! And that’s just the trailer. Mark your calendars: December 25, 2013, is when the ‘The Legend Continues’… because Anchorman Ron Burgundy and his boys, San Diego’s top news team, are back on the big screen. Just looking at the trailer, if the guys can survive ’til the end of the movie, they might learn something about life… and working with Black women… and gay men… and just watch the funny azz trailer above to get ready what could be THE holiday box office hit!

Comedy: De Niro, Douglas, and Freeman To Star in “Last Vegas” (Trailer)

Director Jon Turteltaub probably had his hands full reigning in this A-List cast (each with a resume rife with silliness, as well as drama) for the comedy “Last Vegas.”  Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman, and Kevin Kline are four old friends who decide to throw a Las Vegas bachelor party for the only one of them who has remained single. The film is slated to hit theaters next month. Looks good.

Comedy: Woman Quits Job Via A Video Of Her Dancing To Kanye West’s “Gone” (Video)

How far is too far with all this technology we have? Hey… whether or not this is too far, it’s too funny! Check out how this woman does the modern version of “Take This Job And Shove It” set to the music of Kanye West (“Gone”).

This looks like something a cast member on HBO’s ‘The Newsroom’ would do. Great commentary on valuing shallow views-over-news stances in today’s information media. BUT… if this is really real… it was risky. And it probably helped that this lady works in a field where her job will involve making engaging videos.

Last funny: Though she had an ‘anti’ go-for-the-views stance message, the clip above has over 7 million views thus proving her point of quality over quantity. It took her one quality video like this to connect with people that generated views. Haha

Comedy: Big Booty Bongos (Video) [NSFW]

Jorge Perez Gonzalez is my new hero! He is literally beating that azz like a drum! Knowing that musicians get to some level of status and get azz as a result, here’s a tongue in cheek video of a percussionist who “started from the bottom”… now it’s here. Watching this a couple more times, you know for research, I chuckled less and started asking questions: Is visualizing something like this where drummers came up with ‘hitting the skins’ when they play? Did that leak into the hood as vernacular? How in the hell did he ask these honeyz to be his ‘instruments’? What do they look like in the face? Was the post-performance lotion rubdown (for real, watch to the end) part of the ‘payment’?

Yeah, you MUST watch… just NOT at work (NSFW). Too much to explain if the boss walks by.

Comedy: Everything Is Samuel L. Jackson’s Fault (Video)

‘F##k You, Samuel Jackson!’ Hahahaaa! This ‘Funny Or Die’ skit is hilarious. Still manages to make a good point. Parents raise your kids, Samuel is just acting in movies you LET them watch. If he’s on the movie’s poster, maybe you shouldn’t let your kids watch. ‘YES, THEY DESERVE TO DIE AND I HOPE…’ you watch this funny clip!

Comedy: Members Of U.S. Congress ‘Representing’ In Egypt (Video)

VOTE DAMMIT! Okay… no this is not going to turn into a PSA by @ojones1 (this time). This Daily Show with Jon Stewart clip is a comedy post (but watching ELECTED members of our U.S. Congress “represent” us could send me off on a rant). What’s really funniest though is the portion BEFORE the comedians (Samantha Bee, David Cross, Bob Odenkirk) come in. Just watch…

Can’t celebrate like this on the field nowadays, but there will be no flags thrown as Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon (they’re always clowning) get it in doing a medley of touchdown dances (with their own twist) in this ‘Late Night’ skit. Complete with The Roots on backup.

Comedy: The Corporate Brother – “The Company BBQ” (Video)

They’re playing “hide and go get it” at “The Company BBQ” (wow)? The Corporate Brother series takes a tongue-in-cheek look at the corporate workplace; through a lighthearted Black perspective. In this episode, The Corporate Brother finds love…? Maybe?

Comedy: Invisible Driver Pulls Up In The Drive Thru (Video)

I spotted this hilarious prank that magician Rahat Hussein tweeted earlier today. It’s the third video in his “Drive Thru Invisible Driver Prank” series where he pulls up to the drive-thru windows of various fast food establishments as an invisible driver. The looks on all of the employees faces range from scared, humorous, cautious, & straight baffled. I literally LMAO watching this clip. In case you missed the previous episodes you can check out parts 1 & 2 below…

Comedy: The Daily Show’s Take On NYC’s ‘Stop & Frisk’ Issue (Video)

Who said hot women aren’t funny? Well, don’t say that anymore. Jessica Williams is hot… and hilarious in her skit on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show. The Show is currently being anchored by John Oliver while regular host Jon Stewart is on break working on his movie. This ‘Frisky Business’ segment comes to us from ‘Wall Street’ (aka ‘Business Harlem’), as Jessica gives hardline on-site commentary about the need for MORE stop-and-frisk in this crime-ridden area. Boom!
