So she comes out for her monologue, and she’s rubbing under her nose and doing that cocaine upper-lip stretch thing the whole time.
Then she does the “Do You Know Who My Father Is?” sketch, and the crook of her left arm would put Courtney Love to shame. But maybe, just maybe, it’s just makeup for the character.
Then she introduces the musical guest, and the arm is still looking ugly. Then she’s in the stupid Venice Beach skit, and it’s official: Those scabs are not going away.
Slight (OK, large) hijack here, but I just couldn’t bring myself to start a thread about the creature.
When our friend Aggy (as she will henceforth be known) was on Letterman, she wore a very small, tight, shortly sleeved shirt, and, well, not a lot else. I must confess I was too busy ogling her nipples to notice the tat, as they were the most interesting thing in the interview, UNTIL (after Dave remarked upon her removing those god-awful facial piercings) she divulged that she was pierced in “other places”. Can anyone enlighten? Don’t make me start a thread on this…
i’m far from a christina aguilara fan, but she was funnier and a better actor than all the “professionals” (and i use that term VERY lightly) on SNL. the show is terrible. all the skits are recycled from other sources. like we haven’t seen the “talk over the intercom about embarrassing pharmacy purchases” skit before. i think they’re cribbing from madtv even, which is truly sad.
You know, I think it’s a real shame about Christina. Sometimes I think she just looks soooooo hot. The rest of the time she looks like nothing more than a slut.
First Justin Timberlake and now Christina Aguilara performing better than 99% of the professional actors that appear as hosts on SNL. The “I’m Too Cool for School” Doper brigade goes into palpitations as their heads explode.
The extremely reliable (if muck-raking) online rag Popbitch hasn’t referred to Christina by her Christian name for years, because they have a descriptive nickname for her:
(adult content) Clitring.
As if the pharmacy sketch weren’t lame enough, it appears that it’s turning into a recurring one – this is the second time Sanz has done it, if I recall correctly. And, if I recall correctly again, both times it appeared at the ass end of the show, which ought to indicate to the cast (but it won’t) that it’s not worth becoming a recurring sketch.
Of course, that fucking Safari Planet nonsense never should’ve gotten off the drawing board, yet somehow it did.
I didn’t notice Xtina’s arms, but I did see her rubbing her nose repeatedly and wondered if that indicateda nose candy habit (I don’t keep up with the gossip, so forgive me if this is common knowledge).
I also noticed during the “free-spirited 19th-century wife” sketch, Rachel Dratch had to shout out one of her lines after she apparently missed the card for it.
But she was just bang-on in the Sex and the City sketch. She made me laugh.
She was a much better host then I anticipated. She played characters well and actually had some funny bits. IMO the best host this year.
The writing is still crap though.
Nothing to do with Christina, of course, but did anybody else crack up at the “Jesus Horses” joke? I have no idea why, but my husband and I both thought it was hilarious. I think it’s now become a by-word in our house.
I agree! Her voice was a dead ringer for Kim Cattral’s. Just amazing. I admit I do find her more likeable than Britney, and funnier. Somehow more human.
The existence of Ms Aguilera’s clitoral piercing was confirmed last year when she was stopped at an airport security walkthrough and had to explain what it was that was setting off the metal detector.
