Twinkle Twinkle in different Indian styles

Okay fine fine-I’m sorry, if you’re not Indian then this video may not make too much sense to you. Of course, if you’re REALLY familiar with different styles of Indian songs and the ways in which they differ from state to state, then you should definitely check the video out. At first I just thought the humor was in the fact that the lady was singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with an Indian accent, and I thought, “Lame. Yet ANOTHER joke on the accent.” But then I kept watching (good thing, too) and it became totally hilarious. First off, the lady actually has amazing restraint in her voice to control her vocal chords so well, and then her doing the Kerala Twinkle Twinkle and Punjabi Twinkle Twinkle totally made my day.

Enjoy..

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, everybody

I know, I know. You’re thinking that I’m not exactly the type to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day very much. And I guess you’re right– I’m not a big fan of green beer, wearing green on this momentous occasion, or even faking an Irish accent for an entire day. But when the President himself says that he might be part Irish, I think it’s time to re-assess the true importance of today.

That’s right, I’ve got one word: leprechauns. And lest you think that I’m talking about a mythical character that stayed in our minds thanks to Lucky Charms, I’m not. No dear friends, I’m talking about real leprechauns, like that which was spotted in Alabama. So let’s take some time to look at this old video and remember that leprechauns are everywhere. Especially in Alabama. They’ve even got an amateur sketch to prove it.

Erin go Braugh! (Don’t ask me what it means because I have no clue; I’m hoping it’s just a celebratory cheer.)

Anil Kapoor is a pompous idiot

I know, this isn’t really worthy of a tirade, but I have to say it: Anil Kapoor needs to shut up. I saw him speak after the Golden Globes during which he acted like the success of Slumdog Millionaire was solely because of him. And now, he does it again in an interview with CNN in preparation for the Oscars tonight. He rambles on about how people ‘everywhere’ repeat his lines and that he’s a source of happiness. Are you KIDDING me?? Dude you were the worst part of the entire movie, and aside from a few people that I mentioned in an earlier post, it wasn’t a top acting ensemble. He exemplifies the grandiose pomposity of the top rung of Bollywood (even though he himself hasn’t been a top star in close to a decade), and it is plainly transparent in interviews. Listen buddy, talking like this might get you legions of fans who read Femina and Filmfare, but it’s not gonna help your rep here.

And with that, I’m done.

Chase Daniel + Colt McCoy = a great quote

I know. The title makes no sense. But Daniel (the quarterback at Mizzou) apparently really likes Colt McCoy (at Texas). No, I mean really. Just check out the video for yourself.

Terry Tate tells Sarah Palin what’s up

I have no idea how they did this video, but God bless special effects. In case you were wondering, ‘Drill baby drill’ was chanted at the Republican National Convention this year.

Tina Fey hits it outta the park

Not that you haven’t already seen this– but Tina Fey totally knocks it out of the park with this video knocking on the air-headedness of Sarah Palin. But I gotta admit– even though Amy Poehler (playing Hillary Clinton) plays the straight character in the sketch, she might actually be funnier than Fey if you look really close.

I used to dig John McCain and his non-partisan politics. Now I’m just sickened that yet another airhead might become President one day.

Anyway, enough banter, enjoy the vid!

Gotta love the local news.

A leprechaun was apparently spotted in Mobile, Alabama. Is the viewing fake? All signs point to yes. But the interviews are what make this video totally worth watching.
