Bobby Moynihan Trying To Run Through Water Is My New Favorite Video
Gearing up for Monday like: https://t.co/gSHD3EuKIz #SNL https://t.co/vWt3m1OLQj

Drake hosted SNL this weekend and the results were wonderful. He’s a charming guy and a very good actor, so it should come as no surprise that this was a very strong episode. One of the highlights was the spoof sketch of ‘American Ninja Warrior’ with Captain Tornado (Bobby Moynihan) playing for his hometown that was recently wrecked by an actual tornado. Unfortunately for Captain Tornado’s friends and family, he doesn’t even make it past the first obstacle. After two attempts at jumping off the pads, he decides to try and run through the water, and it’s amazing. They slow it down for us and the results are magical. I never knew I needed a video of Bobby Moynihan trying to run through water, but now I’ve seen it, I don’t know how I went so long without it.

Have You Ever Wanted To See Mr. Bean Dance With Drake to Hotline Bling? Me Too
I don’t care if I have to do it by myself, but I refuse to let Hotline Bling GIFs go. I’ll quit my job and create thousands of them if I have to. I’ll include myself in them, doing the chicken peck. Whatever it takes to keep this magical thing going. I don’t know if Drake did this accidently or if he knew this video would take off the way it did, but either way he’s a beautiful sorcerer. Plus, Mr. Bean just makes everything better.
Sam Smith & His Beautiful Baby Bird Voice Covered Drake’s ‘Hotline Bling’ For BBC Radio
My sweet obsession with Sam Smith continues, and after he was pegged to sing the theme song for the new James Bond movie ‘Spectre’, he decided to hop back into the BBC studios with his pals Disclosure and cover some Drake. I’d listen to Sam Smith sing a 10 minute about how much he hates me, so needless to say I love this.

Drake Introduces the Toronto Raptors During “Drake Night”
I will admit, I was the first person on the hate wagon when it came to Drake and the Toronto Raptors, but after watching the intros he gave to the starting lineup of the Raps last night, I am down with Drake being the unofficial/official mascot of his hometown team. Get after it, Raps! #WeTheNorth

It’s Official, I Hate Drake
I know this is a few days old but I wanted to think long and hard before I used the H word on Drake. I like his music. He was funny on SNL. But outside of performing he just sucks. Where was Drake before this game that he needed to 1. bring a lint roller and 2. actually use it. Does he volunteer at a cat shelter in his spare time? Did he get into a fluffy pillow fight with one of the thousands of friends he has and the pillow got ripped and feathers floated all over his pants? The number one reason I hate Drake is because he disguises a trip to his hometown basketball team’s playoff game as being a true fan when in reality it’s all about him. If he was going to the game to root on the Raptors, he wouldnt sit front row and bring a lint roller. He wants everyone in the world to see his stupid face and to let you know he’s better than you with his gold chains and expensive shirts and lint rollers. Well I’m going to proudly walk around with my lint covered clothes in protest. That’ll show ’em.

Goodbye Justin Bieber
Source – Justin Bieber is in trouble – again.
The pop star was arrested early Thursday for drag racing and DUI in Miami Beach, police confirmed on Twitter. Police say R&B artist Khalil was also arrested.
Bieber was charged with resisting arrest and had consumed alcohol and marijuna, reports AP.
Bieber, 19, was in a rented yellow Lamborghini.
A while ago I wrote about the slow and steady downfall that Justin Bieber was going through. Now before I get started here, I want it to be clear that I could care less if this guy fails. He’s 19 and he’s already made more money than me, slept with more girls and is one of the most recognizable people on the planet. I’m just here to call a spade a spade. You want to know why Justin Bieber is going to fail? Because he lacks the one thing that every famous person had who fucked up and got their life back together: resiliency. He got discovered on YouTube by Usher, made a cute popsy song that attracted literally the easiest audience to attract (young girls) and got a boatload of fame and fortune thrown in his face. Now that the shit is hitting the fan, he wants his bodyguards and inner circle to make everything go away like it’s a bad dream. Unfortunately for him, it’s real life.
Do you ever wonder why so many child actors/musicians have fucked up lives? Because a 16, 17, 18, 19 year old shouldn’t be living in Los Angeles or Hollywood where the vices outnumber pretty much anything good or moral you’re trying to accomplish. That’s why it’s always great to see someone like Justin Timberlake, who got famous young (17 when NSync started taking off), but kept his head above water and turned into an other worldly talent. DUI’s are becoming so common for celebrities that Bieber may get off the hook for this one, go back to making his music for teenage girls, and have a good career. But if I were a betting man, I’d say this is just the beginning of something bad.
Back to the resiliency angle. Does Justin Bieber strike you as someone who deals with animosity well? The same kid who had his bodyguards carry him up the Great Wall of China doesn’t seem like he’s taking the backlash in stride. Again, his bread and butter IS MAKING SONGS FOR TEENAGE GIRLS. Even at the peak of his fame, no one took this guy seriously. So now that everything is going wrong, who does he lean on to get his shit right? If I had cameras in my face 24/7 while websites like TMZ were dissecting my every move, I’d probably lose my mind too. In a way, its kind of sad to see a 19 year old with the world by the balls just be such an idiot and an asshole. Between the constant bad press, on and off retirement and the general dismay people my age or older have for him, it’s going to be a long road back to the top. Like I said, I’m not rooting for him to fail, but at this point, I don’t see any other outcome.

Kate McKinnon Might Actually Be Justin Bieber
That’s as good a Justin Bieber impression as you’ll ever see. Cherry on the ice cream was the fact that she actually looked like Bieber. There’s talent, and then there’s Kate McKinnon. FYI, the entire Drake hosted episode of SNL was awesome. Drake just got his newest and most deranged fan.
