The "hard work" was pure pleasure! Starting an early day with a joyful work like this and knowing others will enjoy too  - who could ask for more? LOL.

Have a great day

Hi there,

so true Kathy LOL, so I went on searching and found another article. Although I do not like the author's previous articles about MB at all, this time I agree: JS at the Emmy's alone would have been pricelesssss LOL 

Good night from Germany

Astrid

PS. If you choose to look at the website: Don't open MB's bio on the right side, unless you need an instant rise of your blood pressure :(((

 

Lonely Island Emmy Awards Performance: Hit or Miss?

The Lonely Island performed at the Emmy Awards Sunday, marking a rare live performance by the SNL trio of Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone.

The guys were joined by Michael Bolton on "Jack Sparrow" before giving way to Lonely Island stand-ins Ed Helms, John Stamos and Maya Rudolph on "3-Way".

Akon then came on to belt out the chrous from "I Just Had Sex", with an assist from Bolton and the guys at the end. It was ... different at least. Take a look:

Hilarious as those guys are, did the live effort fell a bit short? High expectations didn't help them, but it felt a little forced, and yet lacking at the same time.

It's not as funny when the hilarious comedic crew has to censor every other word ... or when other people stand in for Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga.

Why not go with only "Jack Sparrow"? Bolton's big, sexy hook (and watching him attempt to pull off all the costume changes) would have been priceless.

In any case, props to them for trying something so ambitious if nothing else. Here are the original videos for each of the above songs for comparison ...

Hey thanks to all of you for missing me!  I missed you too.

I can't stay away long! I start having MB withdrawl!

My high school reunion isn't until Nov. 5th so I am still busy with that and this year the Christmas holidays will be at my house so I still have a lot on my plate. But with Michael on the Emmys I had to chime in here it was so exciting!!
