New Moon star Taylor Lautner hosted SNL over the weekend, and addressed rumors that he is dating country singer Taylor Swift - by "defending" her in a skit poking fun at the infamous VMA incident with Kanye West. Check out his killer moves below:

Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg are at it again!

I know this post is going up a little past Mother's Day, but in case you missed it I just had to share the hilarious, yet totally twisted video from Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg's Mother's Day skit from SNL! Enjoy!








Now check out the video everyone is buzzing about - Justin seemed to admit that he really did sleep with Britney Spears while they were dating despite what they told the media!

Saturday Night Live Plays with their Wii Wii

Talk about an over the top sketch. Alec Baldwin really let his inhibitions go on this sketch. And really, haven't we all been wondering when the Wii would come out with a game about this?

Jonas Brothers & Alec Baldwin’s SNL Skit

We'll admit, we got a little chuckle out of a skit that the Jonas Brothers and Alec Baldwin starred in together during last night's Saturday Night Live. The Jonas Brothers acted in about 3 skits but we found this one online of Baldwin acting as the 4th Jonas Brother, see what goes down:

What are your thoughts? Can the Jonas Brothers act? Alec Baldwin may have a mean streak in him, but we think he's a pretty funny guy!

SNL Skewers Governer Paterson... Again!

Has Governor Paterson learned to take a joke yet?

In what I call a gutsy (and still funny) move by Saturday Night Live (SNL), to remind everyone in America to 'get a sense of humor', the show went after New York's blind governor Paterson again.



That's right, again. You may recall the show took a lot of heat for mocking the Governor last month and making a parody out of his current tenure in office. More specifically they made jokes over him being blind. A lot of jokes. From him wandering through the set to holding a chart upside down and looking in the wrong direction because he is blind. (See Original December/2009 Controversial Video Below):



But SNL also made a lot of fun of every aspect of his life. They created a caricaturization of his resentment for New Jersey which is now a running joke. Frankly it's hilarious.


Now we have a Governor of a State that should be pretty thick skinned since he is in POLITICS in the first place. I mean come on... if ever the expression "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me" applied to anyone, it would be a politician. You don't get in that business if you can't take the heat. But hey, The Governor's office did have some affect on how SNL portrayed in this latest sketch though. They minimized sight gags on him being blind this time around, but they are still there. The focus on most of the jokes were of Paterson being a hard nosed New Yorker with an opinion on everything.

Governor In Blind Rage

SNL has drawn criticism from sitting Governor of NY Paterson after this SNL News skit (and a follow-up), which by the way are very funny. The question is did SNL go for cheap laughs by mocking the Governors disability? Note, I find the running gag of the Governor detesting New Jersey hilarious. And while I found SNL did make fun of the Governor's blindness he also came off as shrewd and capable of his office. So you can decide for yourself, did SNL take it too far?





In fairness to SNL, they have been mocking blind people since the days of Eddie Murphy when he poked fun at Stevie Wonder ...which by the way riled Stevie up too.

As expected, there is piling on. The National Federation of the Blind says it considers NBC's "Saturday Night Live" skit making fun of New York Gov. David Paterson an attack on all blind Americans.

Tina Fey to host 'SNL' return


Former head writer and Weekend Update co-anchor Tina Fey will host 'Saturday Night Live' on February 23. The episode marks the return of the NBC show following the writers' strike; it was the only late-night show completely on hiatus due to the negotiations.

"It's been a long dry spell without 'Saturday Night Live' on the air," said Rick Ludwin, head of late-night entertainment at NBC. "They've been sitting on the sidelines watching all this happening in politics and the primaries. 'SNL' thrives during an election year and they can't wait to get back on."

No musical acts have been announced as guests on the show.
