Megan Fox’s SNL Promos

» 4 comments

Megan SambergOh, leave me alone. SNL’s 34th season kicks off this Saturday night, and Megan Fox is hosting. Even Obama is talking about her. This is news.

She also teased the appearance on tonight’s episode of SNL Weekend Update Thursday (best name ever!), appearing in a funny little soap opera send-up to commemorate the ending of Guiding Light, coming on set with a gun to challenge Amy Poehler for the Update chair (scandal!). It was a small bit but she did well, which bodes well for Saturday night (although oddly the audience seemed taken aback by her presence and only started applauding when Amy exclaimed “Megan Fox!”). See stills from the appearance below; always great to see Darrell Hammond back on set and in the mix. Lorne Michaels would be silly to get rid of him, he’s always going to be useful. But then again, that’s never stopped Lorne Michaels before.

We’ll have that video for you when it’s online, but in the meantime here she is in a series of NBC promos for Saturday’s premiere, with Andy Samberg — who, lest we not forget, she has said she’d enjoy being sandwiched with, along with Jonah Hill. I’m sure they’d both hate that.

p.s. Don’t believe me that Megan Fox SNL Promos are news? Check out Google, which returns 302,000 results for “Saturday Night Live Megan Fox Promo.” Really.

    Google tells me that there are 107 million results for “elvis presley saturday night live promo” – I’m going to go way out on a limb, however, and speculate that we won’t see any Mediaite stories today about the King of Rock’n'Roll based on this new metric of newsworthiness.

    This is pretty funny re: GUIDING LIGHT

    For 72 years, the soap opera Guiding Light has brought joy to many people. It has recently been cancelled. This made me remember that I recorded a song about the show, using the characters and the story line of the time as the focus of the tune. It pretty much wrote itself. My wife Emily, grew up watching that show. From 97 to 2000, she and I and our 2 dogs, circled the country in a variety of motor homes playing upwards of 200 hundred shows a year. Each day, we would stop somewhere where we could get TV reception on our Radio Shack 8 inch 12 volt TV to watch this show. I of course didn’t always watch but I did enough to know the characters and their personalities and their back stories and who they were sleeping with and who their wives and husbands were sleeping with and who killed who and who and so on. Once we settled back into Fredericksburg, we were introduced TiVo. It was then I got really caught up in the characters and this song was created as a joke. Each year, the real life actors would go to Kings Dominion (amusement park) for a series of autograph signings and interactive seminars where they take questions from fans. Emily wanted to go and like a good husband I accompanied her. (Along with Cam Morin my business manager who was also a semi-fan of the show). Just for fun I recorded this song to put on disc to give the characters in person. Needless to say, there were thousands of house wives and pissed off husbands there to see them and the line for autographs was ridiculous. We waited in it for a long time and by the time we got close, they switched out the actors at the signing as it takes hours to accommodate a crowd like that. 5 would sign and 5 would do the seminar. You had to be super hard core and wait a l o n g time to meet the actors. There were way too many roller coasters to ride for me to do this. So, I walked to the front of the line and handed the discs to the publicist and kindly asked her to give these to the actors. Each disc was labeled with the character’s name. She took them and looked at me like I was crazy and said “yeah….ok……sure……thanks.” The discs probably went quickly in the trash. I may have played this song a handful of times a long time ago but more than likely it will be new to you. Guiding Light. May you rest in peace. Enjoy.

    Love this comment. I grew up on Y&R – still remember about Brooks Brooks and Victor keeping Julia’s husband Michael locked in the basement. I remember when Nikki Reed was a stripper and when Jack & Jill did it in that snowbound cabin with a mystery guy taking photos. It was a different Jack and Jill then too. Loved it.
