Katy Perry Lampoons 'Sesame Street' Saturday Night Live

It was a family reunion on last night’s Saturday Night Live, with host Amy Poehler briefly joined by former cast members Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, and Jimmy Fallon....

Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, and Governor David Paterson all made interesting appearances: Andy Samberg begged Timberlake to go back to making music, Paterson faced off with Fred Armison, and Katy Perry came out in a cleavage-bearing Elmo t-shirt, a nice middle finger to Sesame Street, from which she was recently banned. Frankly, however, Perry’s Auto-Tune-less “California Gurlz” performance could have been a sketch and we wouldn’t have known the difference.

You really don't have much at all to do with Facebook itself. I wasn't on Facebook. don't spend a lot of time on the Internet, and social networking was not truly part of my life. But the story itself! There are elements of it that are old as narration: friendship and loyalty, class, jealousy, betrayal — all those kinds of things that were written about 4000 years ago.Hit me like a great story of great classical. and such classic elements were applied to something incredibly contemporary.
