Oh my. Have you seen the video of Ke$ha (what kind of name is that, really) performing "Tik Tok" on Saturday Night Live? It is maybe the most hilarious thing I have ever watched. First of all, there's the ridiculously dramatic introduction, in which we definitively learn (in case we didn't already know) that Ke$ha cannot sing. Then there's the abundance of American flags... I'm sure you think there was a super hip point to that, Ke$ha, but you were wrong. Were they ironic (I "love" America... :/ )? Do you love America, and that is why you brush your teeth with a bottle of Jack? How is this in any way related to partying or to THE ASTRONAUT COSTUMES EVERYONE IS WEARING? Then of course we must discuss the dancing. Or severe lack thereof. Um... what are those astronauts doing, exactly? It looks like they are at some sort of hoedown but their upper bodies are frozen in robot position. And then they do exactly ONE move of the robot and return to Ke$ha's overarching theme of her career: THROWING YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR. And we can't ignore the awesomely dramatic "Did anyone ever stop to think maybe we are the aliens?" Again, I have to ask, what does this have to with your song about partying all night?
Anyway the point is, I found this video extremely hilarious and spent all day showing it to people and doing the lovably awkward astronaut dance in public with Cobbay. Yaner and I also had a pretty great dance party at home to Ke$ha and Lady GaGa. Except somehow, one was massively superior to the other. Because Lady GaGa may not be writing any symphonies, but that doesn't mean she's stupid.
