your world is now complete...

Bruce Springsteen joins Neil Young (or Jimmy Fallon as Neil Young, whatever) in a stirring rendition of LMFAO's "Sexy and I Know It"



Why? Because shut the hell up, that's why.

The charmfest continues

Jimmy Fallon and Michelle Obama (seriously, can I vote for her?) wind their way even further into my heart with their head to head fitness challenge (potato sack race, anyone?) to promote the Let's Move initiative:



In case you've forgotten about some of the other amazing things fallon has given us, here's just a little reminder:





and my personal favorite- Fallon vs. the cast of Parks and Rec in a Glee spoof (sadly, there's not a good version to embed)

Don't call it a comeback

Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake prove once again that they are people I want to hang out with with their latest installment of The History of Rap:

reason number 352 that I kind of love Jimmy Fallon

Part II of the History of Rap:



JT, quit making movies and stick to music. We like you better that way.

In case you missed Part I:

Imma let you finish...

Man, could the VMA's have been more yawnsville? They really made me miss old interrupting Kanye.

The highlight of the evening was BY FAR Lady Gaga's red-carpet walk with former members of the military who had been discharged or resigned in protest due to Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Once I find video of her interview I'll put it up here, but it was definitely the most awesome moment.



Normally the VMA's at least deliver on performances (hello Beyonce last year or gaga and Elton John), but even those were letdowns this year (I mean, beiber? Taylor Swift singing a song about Kanye that I kept hoping was a joke (no, really)? linkin park?). The stage was awesome, and well used by Usher and Kanye (who, yes, is self-important enough to sing a song about douchebags), but otherwise there was not much to talk about.

The one performance I did really enjoy was Eminem's (next to Kanye, that guy looks downright humble and self-reflective these days, doesn't he?):



Usher's performance (MTV is not letting me embed here, but here's the link) was my other favorite, because at least it was entertaining to watch, even if I do find him pretty boring overall (and we have him to blame for unleashing the biebs on us).

and speaking of horrifying things unleashed on us (cough, cough, ke$ha, cough, cough), this happened:



By the way, our Emmy coverage was rather absent this year, as it coincided with vacation time (what do you want from us?), so it deserves a mention as well. While, again, not a ton to write home about, at least that show had a killer opening (plus Jimmy Fallon, who always makes me happy):

hubble gotchu

proving once and for all that NASA has, by far, the coolest nerds...

a lot of people named Mike in the building.



have I mentioned lately that I love Jimmy Fallon? because, um, yeah, that was a rap about the Hubble telescope featuring actual scientists from NASA. Enough said.

tip of the hat to Cole for the link!

two people i have fallen in love with this year

Craig Robinson and Jimmy Fallon. Robinson was always a favorite on the Office, but then he went and made Hot Tub Time Machine and jumped to a whole new level. Fallon, well, if you read this blog at all you know of the genius that is Jimmy Fallon. thank the baby jesus we get them together

As the lone Lost watcher of 3pies4rolls, I think it's only my place to give a little ode to the awesomeness that was Lost. I figure some of our readers have to be with me on this (venn diagram, anyone?). but, really, this is probably only for those of you out there who join me on team-Lost, because otherwise i make no promises of the entertainment value of the rest of this post.

but for those of you who are still wondering what ever happened to Walt, a collection:

Alternate endings from the Lost creators (don't worry, no real series finale spoilers)



jimmy kimmel's surprisingly funny this week in unnecessary censorship

and the first episode of Jimmy Fallon's genius Lost parody: Late (be sure to check them all out, I think they've done 7 or 8 now)

I will probably add to this list as I find more awesome Lost-related things, so check in again

UPDATE: aaaaaaaaaand my new favorite Lost related video- just in case you had forgotten about all those questions you wanted Lost to answer in the lovely character closure of the finale, here's a reminder:

i'm kind of in love with Jimmy Fallon right now...

the man's been on a roll lately (and that's saying something, because remember that this is the man that brought tears of joy to my eyes with this).

I mean, come on, a glee parody??? with the cast of Parks and Recreation?? And a killer game of charades featuring two of my favorite things- Tina Fey and Clash of the Titans???





well done, jimmy (and Amy Poehler, the other constant between both videos), well done indeed.

by the way, for the Lost fans out there, you should also totally check out the genius that is "Late": here are episodes 1, 2, 3, and 4. I make no promises for the entertainment value to non-Lost fans.

can sandy bullock just pause everything just to hang out with the cast of speed for a day?*

it's a little hit or miss, but I appreciate Tiffany Amber Thiessen (sorry teen stars of my youth, you can't just drop your middle name and expect me to go along with it (I'm looking at YOU, Brian Austin Green!)) responding to Jimmy Fallon's attempts to host a Saved By the Bell reunion. Too bad People Magazine stole some of his thunder...



*by the way, the answer to the above question is yes, yes she can. as long as "the cast of speed" consists of keanu, jeff daniels, ortiz, cameron from ferris bueller, and the worst actor of all time ("yeah there's a bomb, some funny joke!")

the jimmy fallon conundrum

how is that man so funny sometimes (see this and this) and so not funny at others (see late night with jimmy fallon monologues)? I guess it helps if your guest is will arnett.



it also earns points for making me think about the amy poehler/will arnett household, which is about the best thing I can imagine.

i mean, this is freaking amazing:
