Would the real Sarah Palin please stand up and identify herself, before my head explodes from all the doppelgangery-goodness [Website – Amy Grindhouse].
According to reports, Sarah Palin wants to join the EPIC-army-of-funny, that is SNLOL.
The controversial politician is said to be keen to appear on the Saturday night entertainment show, in order to spoof bane of her life, Tina Fey. For reasons unknown, the never intentionally funny Palin and her people, are hella-hyped about the public-humiliation-y implications, of this horrible, YouTube ready, accident-waiting-to-happen.
Palin is allegedly trying to fit Saturday Night Live around her work schedule. Which, so far as anyone can tell, consists of rescheduling her mani-pedi and then just yelling ‘F*CK IT!’ and erasing everything off of her Crackberry…
According to the Sun Times:
[The idea is] some sort of Palin tweak of Fey’s American Express commercials is in the works.
While next weekend’s ”Saturday Night Live” will be a rerun, it is possible Palin could appear [as early as] Thursday on the first of NBC’s ”Weekend Update” specials in prime time.
Otherwise, the next orginal “SNL” show will be broadcast Oct. 18, a little more than two weeks before the election.
This EPIC-cyclone of twinsy-goodness is enough to give someone a headache. Presuming the audience’s heads don’t fall off, from all the ‘which is the real Sarah Palin?’ and ‘which is the hot bitch in the Palin wig?’ mess, this could be another ratings smash.
Can you handle all the hotness?
WHICH OF THESE TWINSIES WILL DO A BETTER PARODY, PALIN OR FEY?

This is wishful thinking from the Palin-heads. Does anyone seriously believe that Fey or any of the writers or performers on SNL would have anything to do with Palin? Does anyone thing that NBC would risk their relationship with one of their most highly-lauded personalities? Come on–get real!
I have no doubt that Palin will take time from her busy schedule to make a film parody on her own to show to her base audience crowds. Of course, she has time to do such a project instead of, say, spending an hour or so appearing on MEET THE PRESS.
Hi, thanks for stopping by and commenting
You think so? I think the SNL heads will eat it up. A terrible spectacle, but some people like car-crash TV!
Last night I was watching The Daily Show and The Colbert Report and it as the first time I have actually heard Palin Speak. This is when I realized that Fey is not making fun of her but aping her perfectly.
Palin showing up on SNL promises to be funny. Not funny haha but funny sad, as this woman could potentially wind up in the Whithouse. If some how McCain gets elected it will be a daily watch on his health and should he kick the bucket we are seriously screwed.

Hello
I heard her speak for the first time the other day too and so I agree! Sad state of affairs, when a parody, such as this, requires little to no actual mocking.
Tina Fey is a freakin’ genius.
Hi Danity, thanks for stopping by and commenting! Love your latest posts, will drop by and comment later…
Also, agreed!
“Does anyone seriously believe that Fey or any of the writers or performers on SNL would have anything to do with Palin? ”
absolutely they would. they’ve been creaming their collective pants hoping she’d eventually be convinced to do something with them.
“Palin showing up on SNL promises to be funny. Not funny haha but funny sad, as this woman could potentially wind up in the Whithouse. If some how McCain gets elected it will be a daily watch on his health and should he kick the bucket we are seriously screwed.”
i’ve no faith in the snl crew to team up with palin’s handlers to make funny so i doubt it’d even qualify for funny sad. as for mccain, while i can think of numerous reasons not to vote for him…his health isn’t one of them, “a 72 year old heartbeat away…” is the most overused and annoying cliche of the election (barely ahead of anything “main street vs wall street”).
to parody fey’s AMEX ads (did she do AMEX ads?) is safe but not funny. why? because i’m willing to bet half of america doesn’t know she did AMEX ads.
the humour would be in a palin vs palin debate where they don’t and never do tell us who is who. sadly the real joke in that one would be most americans wouldn’t know the difference.
there’s plenty more that could be done because palin seems to have a sense of humour. unfortunately these days political correctness > humour which is why snl stopped being funny about a decade and a half ago.
OH, a Palin vs. Palin debate would be wonderful! And if one more person says Main St. or Wall St. I am going to scream! Nobody ever thinks about Park Avenue these days.

Hi Eric,
Welcome and thanks for stopping by and commenting
A break from all of the ‘the world is ending’ news, would be great! The pair should totally do a Freaky-Friday-style swap on the same stage right?
