one foxy host

sure she’s gorrrrgeous, but can she be funny? megan fox of ‘transformer’s fame is headlining ’saturday night live’s’ season 35th premiere tonight as the sketch show’s host.  she & cast member andy samberg put together a series of web promos for the big show – check them out above.

based on the promos, i’d be surprised if every skit didn’t focus on her good looks. let’s face it – the girl ain’t famous for her acting. her latest flick, ‘jennifer’s body,’ bombed big time at the box office. but the ‘snl’ cast is known for being able to carry guest hosts along – anyone recall the michael phelps episode?! – so i’m sure meggy will be just fine.

although, i gotta admit, she’s a fairly awkward person. the lady appeared on the jimmy fallon show this past thursday to discuss her upcoming ‘snl’ debut, and things got kinda strange. apparently she’s scared of touching paper? in any case, tonight’s the big night. megan will bring her crazy to nyc and we’ll see if she gets our laughs. also starring with megan will be musical guest u2. go big or go home, megs!

really?

oh michael phelps. hey, i’m not one to throw stones, he can do what he wants! but when you do something dumb and you’re really really famous, you’s-a-gonna get in heaps of trouble, golden boy. as i’m sure you’ve all heard, phelps was caught smoking some mary jane. the media backlash has been huge! losing several endorsement deals, having to make public apologies, etc… let’s just say it hasn’t been his easiest week.

anyway, saturday night live’s seth myers did a piece last week about all the hoopla. he puts a different spin on the story – it’s pretty funny. check it out!
