Family Guy Spoofs Christian Bale's Rant

Thanks to Ryan Digicrest for posting this video.

As if Christian Bale's profanity laced tirade a few weeks ago wasn't funny enough, the producers of Family Guy had to give their take.

Viral Videos Inspire Weezer Video

Ahhh the internet, a wondrous place where a chipmunk, a kid reenacting Star Wars, or a Rick Astley song can suddenly explode and become a cultural phenomenon. Well the alt rock band Weezer took that idea and ran with it in their music video for the song "Pork and Beans."

On May 23, 2008, the video premiered on YouTube. It features the band interacting with many YouTube stars and Internet memes, including Gary Brolsma ("Numa Numa guy"), Matt McAllister, Mark Allen Hicks ("Afro Ninja"), Caitlin Upton, Judson Laipply, Chris Crocker, Kicesie, Tay Zonday, Kevin Federline (stock footage), Kelly, Ryan Weiber, Michael "Dorkman" Scott, Jeong-Hyun Lim, Dramatic Prairie Dog (including lookalikes of J-Pop group Mini Moni, who were in the original TV clip the Dramatic Prairie Dog originated from), Fritz Grobe and Stephen Voltz's Diet Coke and Mentos eruptions, parody G.I. Joe PSAs, catching Raybans with one's face, the Dancing Banana, Will It Blend?, All Your Base Are Belong to Us, Sneezing Panda, One Man Band by Connor Berge, Daft Hands, Daft Bodies, the Soulja Boy dance (listed on YouTube as "Crank That Soldier Boy"), a CGI Donald Duck and King Kong, Charlie the Unicorn, and the UFO sighting in Haiti Hoax video.

I Guess Bo Burnham is Popular

It's news to me but I guess this guy named Bo Burnham is pretty big on YouTube. Not only that but somehow he hooked up with comedy genius Judd Apatow and is helping him write the script for a movie.

Bo Burnham achieved internet fame in December 2006 after releasing a video featuring his performing an original song, "My Whole Family", on YouTube. As of July 2008, "My Whole Family" has received 2 million views. Over the following year, Bo Burnham released 12 videos on YouTube and Myspace, garnering a combined total of 14.5 million views. In June 2008, Bo Burnham released his first EP on iTunes, entitled "Bo Fo Sho". The album subsequently reached the number three position on the Billboard Top Comedy Albums chart and the number 6 position on top iTunes albums. He was on Last Call with Carson Daly. He also appeared on Talkshow with Spike Feresten on October, 4, 2008.

Burnham has had his videos featured on a variety of webpages besides YouTube, including Break.com, collegehumor.com and comedycentral.com. [Wikipedia]

Here are a couple of his videos:

Chocolate Rain

So I had seen that Chocolate Rain Video before on the internet but never knew why it was so funny. Some guy can make his voice really deep and it sounds funny when he sings....then I saw a clip of him on the Jimmy Kimmel Show and realized, "Wow, that's his real voice." So here's some videos of Tay Zonday, the Chocolate Rain guy....and no he has nothing to do with that one song called Candy Rain.
