Jay-Z , Beyoncé and Blue Ivy Carter parody on SNL

Last week Maya Rudolph hosted Saturday Night Live and one of the highlights was this skit where she does a great impersonation of Beyoncé. And lucky for us a few other celebrities want to meet baby Blue Ivy Carter so there are also super funny impersonations of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie and Nicki Minaj.

The Prince impersonation is also hilarious and as usual Kristen Wiig almost steals the show with her impersonation of Taylor Swift. And I say almost as Justin Timberlake makes a brilliant cameo as Bon Iver. Check out the video below:

Whitney Houston

Maya Rudolph does the best Whitney Houston impersonation on Saturday Night Live. Just a couple of days ago I watched this skit on SNL, the Miley Cyrus Show, and Maya did a guest appearance as Whitney, warning about the dangers of drug use. And two days later Whitney sadly passed away... Ironic and sad...

Whitney Houston parody on SNL - Maya Rudolph

Those who know me know me as a Mariah Carey fan, and there was the supposed rivalry between the two divas  until for the surprise of many they did the When You Believe duet and suddenly they were performing together and being friendly etc. So not only Whitney and her songs were part of my childhood, but "through" Mariah grew to be quite fond of her and so saddened by the new of her death. May she rest in peace.

Lana Del Rey Parody by Kristen Wiig

This week on Saturday Night Live the always funny Kristen Wiig - pretty much the only reason why I still watch this show - made a funny impersonation of new songbird Lana Del Rey.

Not only it was really funny but also a great way to tackle all the criticism Lana (the real one) received after her perfomance a couple of weeks ago on SNL.



I personally don't think she is all that great live (from what I've seen) but am really enjoying the album so far so I say "Go Lana!". And for all of you who can't find it on Youtube or live outside the US here is the funny video:
