Posse: (What you want Natalie?)
Portman: To drink and fight!
Posse: (What you need Natalie?)
Portman: To fuck all night!
Kids who look up to her, Nat raps, “can suck my dick!”
Even Lazy Sunday haters will love Saturday Night Live’s latest inevitable YouTube sensation.
UPDATE: Video! Somebody sign this chick.
UPDATE 2: NBC apparently got tired of all the YouTube removal requests. Watch it here.

We west coasters will see it in 3 hours. I’ll tivo it in case no one else grabs it.
soooo good!
posse: we love you, Natalie!
Natty P: i wanna fuck you, too!
Well, that was quick. Good stuff. I want an mp3.
It’s not that we hated Lazy Sunday. It’s that we couldn’t understand why a silly little internet-style video became “THE FUNNIEST THING EVAR” just because Saturday Night Live attached its name to it. And, of course, what does SNL do when it finally stumbles onto something people think is somewhat amusing? Try to repeat the EXACT SAME FOMULA over and over and over again. “Durr… people thought it was funny when we did a rap parody? Hey I’ve got an idea: Let’s do another rap parody!!!”
God love ‘em.
I really don’t know why I still watch. That was the only funny part of the show with the exception of Fall Out Boy who are amazingly bad. They could at least, you know, pretend to play their guitars. And throwing it at the end? Really nice touch.
Fantastic.
Seriously, that was some of the least awesome guitar sounds I’ve ever heard, ever.
But I love Natalie, really, I do.

Also, what was Pete Wentz pulling out of his shirt during the SNL end credits? Some kind of sign that got pulled away from rly fast.
Missed it. Was out seeing Kill Gordon here in ATL. Yeah! I’m sure I’ll see the YouTube vid soon enough.
Also, I approve of the recent proliferation of online video content. It’s about damn time.
P is for Portman. I guess that’s where Diddy’s P went too.
Fall Out Boy seemed far more concerned with rocking out than actually rocking. And when did their singer get fats?
the video just went up on youtube:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=l7qlXQ-EriI
if that’s really natalie rapping, she kinda sounds like lady sov. kinda.
natalie rocks the nappy dugout….
that’s my girl!
Joey Headsets jaded hipsterspeak bothers me. for one, its 3 months later and they had a host who would be funny to do that sort of thing, might even have ASKED to do one. When Steve martin pulls a ‘lazy sunday’ we’ll talk.
theres actually been plenty of good sketches on SNL this season, its just that the music related ones are the ones that are going to make the internet rounds on blogs such as this…
oh, and i was watching SNL with my girlfriend, and when Fall Out Boy was on she said “when did the guy from AC/DC get shorter, fatter and a worse singer” – they were absolutely horrible.
I have a feeling NBC’s going to take off the Portman skit on YouTube like they did the Chronicles of Narnia rap.
I got bored half-way through – they’ve already run the newest original idea they had into the ground.
Is there any way to record the sound off that, or any YouTube video?
it was funny for about 15 seconds, then it got boring.
Who owns You Tube, anyway?
Awesome. SNL has been sucking lately, but this was great!
ohmygod!!! This shiz was way funny… and i don’t really see it as a knock off of Lazy Sunday. It’s sorta more the equivalent of Weird Al singing Amish Paradise– taking the piss out of Hip Hop posturing…
okay, it’s a lot better than weird al…
nothing’s better than weird al
NOTHING.
Hey she got mad skillz.
Y’all know you want more,
Cos Nat P’s rhymes are so hardcore.
Rewind, HARDCORE!
Just watched it. It’s not really that funny. It tries hard… it sports a clever NWA reference, but it ultimately fails. But this is what happens when you try to generate humor just by repeating a formula – you run into diminishing returns.
And BTW, if not thinking SNL is funny makes me a “jaded hipster” – by all means, slap an LCD Soundsystem shirt on my back and grow me an ironic mustache. I’ll wear them with pride.
if you want to be a jaded hipster, you need the diplomats ramones paradoy shirt, not lcd soundsystem.
Heh, it’s actually pretty good. Here’s the funny thing: In the next 24 hours, Nat P gets a whole new audience and image because of it.
What’s funniest, I think, about this video is that the point where it stops being funny is EXACTLY when what’s his name — the Jewish Jimmy Fallon — appears.
That’s pretty much how all the sketches worked, come to think of it.
So I’m told:
?I got a def posse you got a bunch of dudes?
-from sir mix a lot ?posse?s on broadway?
In other youtube music news, CYHSY’s performance on Letterman from Thursday is up. And unlike their last late-night talk show performance, this one was actually pretty good:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=eoNFXBWrd4Y
I saw this last night and I thought it sucked.
People still watch SNL? Do yourself a favor and get an extra hour of sleep.
i thought it was moderately funny.
in another news….who got the sxsw passes? or do those who won already know? or do they just magically show up in your mailbox?
Well, I will give them a little extra credit for a Sir Mix a Lot reference that doesn’t involve “Baby Got Back”. Clearly the “I wanna fuck you” live is borrowed from NWA’s Gangsta, Gangsta.
Eazy-E: And all you bitches, you know I’m talkin to you.
Bitches: We want to fuck you Eazy!
Eazy-E: I want to fuck you too.
Are there any other non-obvious references in there?
it wonder whats funny to some of you people, just reading half the posts on stereogum brings to mind the ‘jaded members of generation x’ thing from the simpsons:
‘are you being sarcastic dude?’
‘i cant even tell anymore’
i’d rather hang with ‘the jewish Jimmy Fallon’ than some of you people who dont seem capable of enjoying anything for fear of losing cool points. goddamn.
hipsters can suck my….
i hear you, sitsu….
when that adam dude came out with the viking helmet….
i laughed….
who watches SNL?
i tivo it and flip through….
and i ain’t even hip enough to give a fuck….
nat p…..respect.
you should check out http://www.thelonelyisland.com it’s Andy Samberg’s comedy group that he was in before SNL. The all auditioned to be on the show, Samberg got on and the 2 other dudes are now writers. They’re all in charge of the digital shorts, and their website has other rap-type sketches and music related skits that are hilarious! Check it out!
Eh. Semi-amusing. Doesn’t make me want to start watching SNL again though.
LMAO hilarious.
I speak for oh so many when I say: meh.
It was funny because it’s natalie. And she’s awesome. If it was just some other random actress it probably wouldn’t have been that great.
I agree with Danielle: the fact that it was Natalie proba made it better than it was. It does seem like a take-off of Lazy Sunday (and it’s moments aren’t as funny as Sunday’s big moments), but my friend and I were cracking up when we saw it “live” on the West coast.
I thought she was going to say “drink and f%^^%” when she said “drink and fight.”
I hereby decree that the Natalie Portman rap is thoroughly Ka-blamo!
Jeez, Fall Out Boy has more cheezeball stadium rock moves and poses than Poison circa the “Look What the Cat Dragged In” tour. How many times is red guitar guy gonna jump off the drum riser?
Whatever corporate suck-ass major label put this record out can’t be thrilled with the singer dude’s obvious penchant for Big Macs. Dude needs to mix in a few salads. He looks like Chunk from the Goonies with mutton chops.
dont worry, i captured the audio and made an mp3. Enjoy!

I liked it but it wasn’t hilarious. Lazy Sunday had me laughing more the first time I saw it. This one didn’t even make me laugh out loud, I simply liked it because it was better than the rest of the show. That skit where they worked at that boost juice place made me lose a lot of respect for Portman, she was annoying as hell (and yes I know she was suppose to be but she went way too far). Weekend Update was pretty shit this week too.
I thought it was semi-amusing when I saw it, in a non-jaded way. It’s the same SNL problem, they come up with something that’s kinda funny, then run it into the ground for the next 5 minutes. I thought the best joke all night was Natty P as Sasha Cohen. The resemblence was uncanny, and the joke didn’t get massively played out.
why do people care if fall out boy’s lead singer gained some weight?!? get over it.
It wasn’t supposed to be funny because it’s a takeoff on “Lazy Sunday”, it was supposed to be funny because it’s NATALIE PORTMAN and she’s GANGSTA RAPPING!! Sexy. I would be her man-ho. I worship at the alter of Natalie, she can do no wrong. I even found her attractive as a transvestite man. Hmm…
I think boingboing picked this up a year or so ago, the lonely island rap formula basically is a rehash of their pilot episode (actually even before that), there’s really only so far you can drive that vehicle. Andy sanderberg is mildly funny, and it’s got to be great for him being in the cast/ and having him and his friends basically being the backbone of the scraps of comedy that slip through SNL now, but honestly there’s got to be some other comedians out there who can write a funny sketch? Because the last time I turned it on, it was kind of painful…it was pretty good in the 90’s with ferrell and katan. Also, I know buddyhead made it cool to prefix with “Dude” but I’m pretty sure they’re about as relevant as their music label is.
So, am I supposed to like this or not?
i fell out of love with natalie post-Professional…
but now i’m in love with her again.
PS who cares?
great skit, however youtube yanked it for copyright infringement. maybe its on nbc’s page.
Why do so many people associate having discriminating tastes or a hint of critical thought with “hipster cool points”?
People: Some stuff is good, and some stuff sucks.
And you suck.
anyone got the lyrics?
Kinda reminds me of gangsta Wayne Brady on Chapelle’s show. Funny stuff.
“Why do so many people associate having discriminating tastes or a hint of critical thought with “hipster cool points”?”
when it comes to humor, I couldnt trust a hipster opinion less. this is one arena where i think the stereotypical hipster opinion almost always annoys the shit out of me. they have preset ideas of mainstream anything, and almost all comedy is pretty mainstream, especially SNL. so when something funny comes along, even if they like it, they have to admit it with a qualifier, such as “but all other SNL sucks”.
most indie music is kind of serious, so this attitude works okay (until a band with a sense of humor like the Darkness comes along, or until the White Stripes or Strokes, etc get too big)
basically, today – i hate hipsters because their sense of humor is shit, they cant turn off their brains to have any fun.
^^ good point
I thought it was hilarious…in a way. She’s actually not bad lol. It’s just weird seeing little natalie portman gangsta rapping, i think that was part of the funniness.
I love it. No irony or sarcasm here.
It was also funny at the beginning of the show, when she schooled those Star Wars geeks. Thank god those awful movies didn’t destroy her career.
it’s been removed from youtube already…
they got it here (for now):
http://www.devilducky.com/media/42822/
Get it while you can.
I’ve found that with genuinely GOOD comedy, it isn’t necessary for me to turn my brain off to enjoy it. Honestly, if you think that all enjoyment of comedy must begin with a total cessation of mental activity, then I gotta ask: what ISN’T funny when you’re (pretending to be) an idiot?
whole thing=fucking stupid.
I interpreted “turn your brain off,” as an exhortation to watch something, rather than watch yourself watch something and imagine who else is watching it while you are.
“why do people care if fall out boy’s lead singer gained some weight?!? get over it.”
Their performances were funnier than the Natalie Portman skit. Those dudes were jumping around like a bunch of poncy tarts. Their recycled stadium rock poses are beyond tired.
Isaace Brock carries a couple of extra pounds, but nobody cares because Isaac Brock is genuine and talented, unlike the assclown from FOB. Fall Out Boy dude is lame, so it is fun to make fun of his chubbiness.
Whatever, their fifteen minutes is about up, so it doesn’t matter much anyway. Dude may as well get a head start on his bloated, washed-up phase.
Yeah, Fall Out Boy sucked no doubt and no matter how much black Patrick Stump wears he can’t hide all of the Krispy Kremes he’s packed away. Pete Wentz needs to learn that throwing your instruments stopped being cool around the same time as heroin and whatever their guitar player’s name is should stand still so that he can fucking play. I mean, I don’t give a crap about technical skill as long as you make good music, but fuck it dude, you aren’t even trying.
Oh, did anyone notice that Arctic Monkeys are on next week? That was quick. Is it me or are they the most overhyped band since the Strokes? I’ve already noticed their critical praise flogging and I just hope this dies down as soon as possible.
I wasn’t really watching the band perform, or the singer as a whole, but his vibrating double chin. That thing was all over the place.
Like Telly said, why is that if someone doesn’t enjoy something you like, it’s automatically chalked up to being a “hipster?” All this talk makes you guys seem like the jaded ones, beating up on a strawman. Did some kid wearing used clothing make fun of your Urban Outfitters t-shirt or something?
I’m sorry are we watching the same thing because that shit was not even funny. Let this rap parody shit die already. It’s not funny.
At least people are actually are talking about SNL again.
And I would have thought Arcade Fire would be on before Arctic Monkeys, because they are a far better band. Not to mention a stellar live act.
No Funkin’, step your reading comprehension game up – I didn’t find it funny either.
the whole bit comes from an eazy-e song called no more questions.
and as it is pretty authentic to that NWA vibe, I’d say that this isn’t much like Lazy Sunday at all. They may have had the idea for this bit BEFORE LS, by the way… the production value of this short is much higher.
They should have dropped the Samberg viking at the end… but “my d… is scared of you” is a classic line.
Lazy Sunday was funny whether it was SNL or not. I was sent the link and had no idea what it was beforehand, nor have I even watched SNL lately. I laughed my ass silly for the entire thing. Some people just can’t lighten up.
IM AN OLD FART AND I THOUGHT IT WAS BOTH FUNNY AND A LITTLE SHOCKING. PEOPLE WHO DIDNT THINK
THIS SHORT WAS AT LEAST SUPRISING AND DEFINITELY THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE SHOW ARE PRETTY STRANGE
the whole interview/rap structure was lifted from a song on Slim Thug’s album cleverly titled, “The Interview.”
I have the lyrics in full.
i thought it was funny
i like sandberg but he shouldnt have been in it
I’m not going to comment on whether or not Samberg is funny or not but dude knows his old school hip hop. From N.W.A, Easy-E and Nine. I’d like to hang out with him.
The whole rap/interview thing on Slim Thug’s “The Interview” was lifted from Eazy-E’s “No More ?s” And I’m sure Sandburg and the Lonely Island listened to E back in the day.
thanks for posting the link to it on ilovepants- NBC took it off youtube and put it up on their own site where it now doesn’t work. ( i don’t know if a million people are trying to watch it or thier site just sucks, or its my problem- but i could watch it fine from ilovepants)
They’re such idiots. Let it be on YouTube – its a big advertisment for SNL-let it go wherever it wants to go- how stupid can you get? If you want to monitize it, get pepsi to pay for a product placement in the next funny video you make…
I thought that the hilight of the night was that Robert Smigel cartoon with Dennis Haysbert. It was the only thing that made me laugh at least. Why can’t they shove that up on YouTube? And how come SNL has nothing against FOB’s crappy performance being on YouTube?
Speaking of FOB, my friends and I were really bored and really immature yesterday and made a hundred fat jokes about Patrick Stump. Go to my Live Journal if you’re vaguely curious. Now that I have my wits about me, none of it is funny to me, but hey worth sharing I guess.
youcanbemyhead.livejournal.com
Also, Ted drew a picture of Stump driving a Volvo with Ben Gibbard tied to the roof. It was funny, but my scanner was broken.
I thought the Samberg thing was just a takeoff on the relentless “featuring” guest rappers/singers that always show up in rap videos.
SNL always has to run something into the ground.
I mean skits were funny in 1975, but come on SNL you have done enough skits already.
We hipsters want something new skits was so played out.
SNL should try a new format of just showing watercolor painting with no sound.
That would be so cool and hip.
It would be katrina.
Here are the lyrics to her awesome rap. Its about 95% accurate I had some trouble understanding some of it. Enjoy mutha’fucka’s!
CP: I?m here with film star Natalie Portman.
NP: Hello.
CP: So Natalie, what is a day in the life of Natalie Portman like?

CP: Okie-dok, Natalie one final question. If you could steal a smooch from any guy in Hollywood who would it b?
NP: No more questions.
WHAT!
Pasty middle class honkies evidently think of gangstas as rather dark primordial sapiens sporting phalluses the size of redwoods, raping, mutilating and defecating as they spew tribal beat vitriol from their blow holes. Substituting Ann Frank as the instigator was mildly amusing, due to the incongruity.
It’s all the Jews…
Monsterbaby on the money. Daniel, you’re a moron.
I love NBC’s intro on that new official Natalie Portman Raps page:
http://www.nbc.com/Video/videos/snl_1439_natalieraps.shtml
“Now, instead of searching the web for ‘borrowed’ NBC highlights, you can go to the source!”
Borrowed … hmmm, whotube could they possibly be referring to?
Nice job on the lyrics Amy. I couldn’t get all that. But I think It’s “crazy off that airplane glue”…not group.
There is an mp3 file…found it here:
http://www.blueoverblue.com/random/natalieportmansnl.html
Thanks for clearing that up Mike, thats the part I was really iffy about and after listening to the mp3 a couple of times she says “Say you’re though” instead of what I previously wrote “So you?re through.”
Also she says Jeff Zucker not Tucker.
It’s “Put my foot down your throat till your shit’s in my shoe” and later “And I always pay for your dry cleanin? When my shit gets in your shoe”
CP: I?m here with film star Natalie Portman.
NP: Hello.
CP: So Natalie, what is a day in the life of Natalie Portman like?
NP: Do you really want to know?
CP: Please, tell us.
I don?t sleep mother fucker; off that ?Gnac and that Dourban

And all the dudes, you know I?m talkin? to you

NP: No more questions.
WHAT!
Anyone know the beat they used when they went to the interview scenes?
Great stuff Federlarva, no more confusion.
it’s “gettin high while i’m swervin” not “coo’”
and “snorted all the Yay” not “sorted”
Gangsta rappers don’t snort yay. They sell it. So sorting it makes not sense.
Also most usages of “yay” in gangsta rap refers to crack and not powder cocaine, ergo you can’t snort yay.
Also I think the getting “____” while I’m swervin’ line was originally getting head, but it is censored. I think it sounds more like coo’ which is a shortening of cool. Which makes more sense because “high” is usually not used in reference to alcohol, but “cool” is used for any type of inebriation.
Provide me a reference to anybody saying that they are high off of alcohol in a gangsta rap. Or snortin yay.
does anyone have a .mpeg or .mov or .mp4 of this???
