Coming Soon to SNL: Wahlberg and Palin?

Not to be outshined by Obama's roasting of McCain, or Tina Fey's spot-on impersonation of her, Sarah Palin might be making a cameo on SNL this weekend (after flip-flopping about appearing). The show isn't confirming anything just yet, but the Daily News notes a good fit, with the episode being hosted by Josh Brolin, who stars in Oliver Stone's film "W" about President Bush. If Palin does in fact show up, Mark Wahlberg may have a harder time getting through security. Following the parody Andy Samberg did of him last week, the actor said on Jimmy Kimmel last night: "When I see that kid, I'm gonna crack that big f*cking nose of his...and then I'm gonna tell him 'Say hi to your mother for me." He added: "I'm gonna get on a plane tomorrow, I'm gonna go down to 30 Rock or wherever the f*ck they shoot that show, he probably doesn't have a dressing room so I have to find him in the cafeteria or wherever, and I'm gonna slap him in the big nose. Tune in, I gauran-f*ckin-tee you." Looks like someone can't take a joke.

If only he had punched M. Night Shyamalan in the nose.

Or the wind.

This is what happens when you make Boogie Nights and all you get afterwards are bad scripts.

Looks like no one gets the joke. This is staged. 17/21 are on the money.

It is Andy Samberg pulling an Andy Kaufman. Unbelievably, it worked.

The nose comments are not anit-semitic in and of themselves, but since Samberg likely recreated the stunt (no such tning as a new idea), is he a self-hating Jew?

Marky is trash.

No one could be that epically humorless right? Right? Marky Mark has to be doing some publicity stunting for his new crappy action flick.

BTW, did anyone else expect the skit to end with "bitch ass, cock muncher"? I mean the animal selection was so obvious: dog, donkey, rooster, goat.

Okay so the last one is a bit of a stretch, but come on, it was so close!

How douchey is Wahlberg not to be flattered by this!

Qraymond

When he "goes down there to slap him" will it leave a marky mark?

I'm sorry folks, it's friday.

Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercial and artistically.

#20- dude don't even get me started on my Huey Lewis and the News re-phase. I've been listening to their greatest hits for the past 2 weeks nonstop.

djrobgordon-

get back to work.

Is this Mark that boy band guy? He is going to smack him, sounds like he has some sort of S&M fantasy to me. Mock me I beat you.

The quote reads like some cheap phone sex line

"Oh I'm gunna come down there and slap you"

This just isn't all that serious...Marky Mark was just doin it for the exposure kids. Think Max Payne. Like they say, any publicity is good publicity.

"No one likes big noses except the dude from digital underground."

damn, baby hitler, you are old skool, with the back in the day joints! lol, do the humpty hump!

Lordy, I hope Wahlberg is kidding.

If so, and he makes a cameo, funny. If not, well, nobody likes an actor who can't make fun of himself and he'll find himself pretty unpopular for making threats like that. This ain't 1990, Marky Mark.

#15 - Then take out Angelina Jolie and insert Steven Tyler. It doesn't really change the point that one's racial and the other isn't.

Either Wahlberg's in on the skit and he'll play it out on SNL or he really doesn't have a sense of humor. We'll see I guess.

#12: It's a tricky argument. In order to determine whether something is even vaguely anti-zook you must be aware of the complete history of anti-zook statements and keep them in mind at all times so that they can be avoided? That's a helluva lot of baggage to carry around.

Either way I prefer my bread buttered on the top.

#12- the difference is that if you made fun of angelina jolie's lips it would be dumb cause her lips are a positive. People mostly like big lips on girls. Your basically making fun of her for being good looking which is dumb. Noses are universally hated for being big. No one likes big noses except the dude from digital underground.
