Speaking of nude photo leaks, I kinda feel bad for ScarJo. Apparently the FBI is taking it very seriously.

Seems like a pretty good snuggler. Added to my prison/pirate ship list along with Daniel Craig and Clive Owen.

This is not the kind of thing you do half-assed. On orders from the top down.

I'm noting a conspicuous absence of Joey.

Yeah, they wouldn't want to reflect on being the butt of the joke. Better to keep abreast of things.

Quoted from Joey's press conference on the issue:

"And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
Until you died, til you died
But you're still alive

And I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know."

I'm a little bit annoyed with the TEH GAY PANIC element of the comedy, but his delivery of "this is worse than death" is impeccable.

Money well spent. I love how these celebs are all "OMG someone hacked my computer/phone and took my photos." Big deal. We see her naked in films/Mr. Skin anyway.
posted by stormpooper at 1:45 PM on September 16, 2011


Actually, to my knowledge she hadn't appeared nude in any of her movies.
posted by nathancaswell at 1:48 PM on September 16, 2011


Not to be that guy that knows too much about celebrity nudity, but in fact she has not been nude in a movie or magazine before.

I don't find the gay panic thing in the least off-putting, because it's obvious that these two actors spent several hours happily cuddling together in a room full of colleagues, and clearly don't feel threatened in the least. The joke at the very end is practically a throw-away.

If anything, it's a spoof of gay panic humor. Because the idea that Stamos is somehow fooled the entire time he is exploring Saget's body is so absurd that the last joke doesn't even make sense.

Definitely. It's like my mom always told me: Be a celebrity, forfeit all rights to personal privacy. Starred in a movie? Your cellphone is now public domain, fucker.

Those Full House guys seem to really dig the jokey accusations of closeted homosexuality. Comedy Central's roast of Bob Sagat was pretty much all fag jokes. Warning: don't watch any Comedy Central roasts unless you hate yourself.

The weird one on that roast was Lovitz, for a few reasons:
A. I don't really think of Lovitz as a gay panic joke guy
B. I don't even think of him as a dirty joke guy
C. He's had rumors around him about being in the closet for years
D. He seemed uncomfortable doing that material, tho that could be because of any combination of A, B and C. Or none of them. Those jokes just sucked.

That was hilarious, right up until the final two seconds of gay panic.

I would bet that a good portion of comedians pay other writers for roast material.

That was more entertaining than eight seasons of Full House combined. Which still isn't saying a whole hell of a lot.

They're under a lot of pressure to crack this case.

Stamos has been doing this kind of stuff for years.

There's what you do for your work and there's what you do privately. They might sometimes look the same, but they aren't the same. This is the sort of thing that psycho stalkers get confused about, too.

Also, her phone was hacked. Even if there were no nude photos involved, that's pretty awful. I only wish the FBI would take it that seriously for the rest of us. Then again, maybe they do. I don't know anyone who's had their phone hacked, so I have no idea what happens.

But anyway. The Stamos clip. Hilarious until that final WTF moment. But that's how I feel about most CollegeHumor videos.

I think his wife, Morgan Fairchild, whom he saw naked—more than once—would dispute that.

This term 'gay panic' it sounds like a music genre or something that would be written in bold white letters on a large red button.

Did anyone read the (via) about Project Cuddle, which is actually trying to do some harrowing, last-resort social work involving working through unplanned pregnancy, and at worst--the safe surrender of newborns. This issue is possibly collegiate, but rarely humorous. Stamos is serving as a public figure for the cause, which is not dealt with at all in this "cute/not cute/omgwtflolz" video?

/Carry on.

I saw an interview with Stamos a few weeks back and it seemed to me that his charity means more to him than any attempt at a career revival. He was very sincere and seemed like some guy moved by what he was able to do with his nominal celebrity. I was somewhat impressed.

I also think the charity is worth checking out.
posted by cjorgensen at 7:02 PM on September 16, 2011


Hey, it made me crack up several times. Stamos's delivery and Saget's expressions are hysterical.

And I would totally cuddle that.

Well, as suggested above, as a straight guy, I got a bit of gay panic about Stamos. He might have to wait in line for NPH though.

It's the via link. Or do you mean it should have been the primary link with the video secondary? I'm pretty sure the first was made to promote the second, since Project Cuddle is the last frame of the video.
