Acura Super Bowl Commercial: Jerry Seinfeld vs. Jay Leno for the First NSX [Video]

The Super Bowl is this Sunday, and if you’re like me, you just may tune in for the commercials alone. This is the only time when commercials are not just welcome, but anticipated, so why wait to see what is sure to be one of the hottest ad spots this year during the big game? We just saw Acura’s newest commercial that will air during the Super Bowl and couldn’t wait to share it with you.

High-end sports car aficionados Jerry Seinfeld and Jay Leno star in this spot for Acura where they are pitted against each other, competing to be the very first person in the world to have the yet-to-be-released Acura NSX. The commercial is hilarious and also features one of the most beloved characters from the show Seinfeld, the Soup Nazi.

Sh*t Mom Bloggers Say [Video]

Sh*t Mom Bloggers Say [Video]

By now I am sure you have all seen at least one version of the “Shit People Say” video. This flurry of videos began in mid-December with Shit Girls Say, a hilarious and frighteningly accurate 1 minute and 19 seconds full of numerous quips that pretty much every woman alive is guilty of saying. The video quickly went viral and has since accumulated over 12 million views. That was just the beginning.

In the past month and a half, people everywhere took this idea of things certain types of people say and started creating their own videos. Some are based in observation, some from personal experience; some are in the name of awareness which lends to social justice activism (most notably, this happened with the Shit White Girls Say to Black Girls

Melissa McCarthy to Host “Saturday Night Live”, Check Out the Promos [Video]

Melissa McCarthy to Host “Saturday Night Live”, Check Out the Promos [Video]

I have not watched an episode of Saturday Night Live in years; not since Tina Fey portrayed Sarah Palin, which I still find totally hilarious. However, this week’s episode will be hosted by Melissa McCarthy and that is pretty much all the reason I need to tune in.

I’m actually pretty surprised and kind of sad that Melissa McCarthy hasn’t hosted an episode of SNL yet. She gained a lot of attention and acknowledgement through Bridesmaids and that would have been a great time to have her on the show. I guess she just had to prove her comedic worth to SNL by winning an Emmy.

Watch Anderson Cooper Get a Severe Case of the Giggles on Air [Video]

Watch Anderson Cooper Get a Severe Case of the Giggles on Air [Video]

As you may have already heard, Gerard Depardieu can now add “public urinator” to his long list of life accomplishments and last night, Anderson Cooper added Depardieu to his “Ridiculist” for the act.

After being told that he would have to wait to use the restroom on an airplane, due to the plane still being on the tarmac, Depardieu proceeded to urinate on the floor of the passenger cabin. In all fairness, I have found myself, on more than one occasion, in a desperate situation that called for my immediate attention to relieve my bladder at all costs. “At all costs” could very well be urinating on the floor of an airplane in Depardieu’s case. However, that’s just the detail of this story; the context of it, anyway. The real story is that while Anderson Cooper delivered his pee pun-laden tangent about the case, the reporter came down with one severe case of the giggles on air, much to the enjoyment of myself, and just about anyone who has seen the video clip.

Take a look for yourself after the jump and I’m sorry, but Anderson Cooper has never been so cute to me before this moment.
