Saturday Night Live - Update: Palin Rap - Video - NBC.com

 

Wow, I'm surprised she did SNL. I was camping this weekend so I didn't know this happened until I heard it on the radio this morning.

 

They are doing another thursday night SNL special after the office. This has been a great election for SNL.

 

I love the line in the rap "mothers in the house put your hands up, plumbers in the house pull your pants up."

thanks for posting this! I was looking for it yesterday and didn't think it was posted yet. So funny!

I think it is great that she was able to go on and make fun of herself but i didn't think she was very funny at all - she looked really uncomfortable.

 

i loved the rap - that was awesome!

[KatyKo]

It would have been so funny if she would have actually done the rap. Loved the words though!

 

I agree that she was pretty uncomfortable looking.

Darn work...gotta wait to watch the rap until I get home. I thought Mark Wahlberg was the best part of the bit.

[Jacqueline]

i saw some of it! I want to catch the whole thing though, b/c i didnt see all of it to see if she looked nervous. im surprised though that it sounds like she was.

 

i think sarah is cute and im in love with mark walberg. like- for real in love.

Palin helps 'SNL' to best ratings in 14 years

Quote:

SNL, with Republican vice presidential candidate Ms Palin as a guest, averaged a 10.7 rating/24 share in the 56 metered markets, according to preliminary estimates released on Sunday by Nielsen Media Research. The figures make it the highest-rated SNL since March 12, 1994, when Olympic skater Nancy Kerrigan was the host and Aretha Franklin the musical guest. Those numbers also would make SNL the third-highest-rated show of last week.

i think there was also a line during that same part when amy poehler said "all the mavericks in the house put your hands up" - and i only busted out laughing because i thought of alyssa LOL

totally agree with you, she looked like she was trying really hard to have fun with it, but overall she looked uncomfortable during parts when the camera was directly on her. especially during the part with baldwin in the beginning, yikes.

When they panned to Alec Baldwin I was wondering what the heck he was going to say! She cracked a joke about 30 Rock but her timing was off and the audience didn't really react.

[rodent]

i thought it was appropriate that she didn't really do much. I haven't watched the clip when obama was on, but i heard it was similar that he didn't say much. i'm sure they have to be really careful.

[Jacqueline]

yeah morgan thats prob true. never thought of it that way. i didnt see when obama was on! i wish i woulda saw that too
