OK, it's not really Gwen, but she's a pretty good impersonator. In this Mad TV spoof of Gwen Stefani and her mute human accessories the Harajuku Girls (here played by the awesome Bobby Lee), we're asked to think about what it means when some people looooooove Asian culture (or what they stereotype as Asian culture) a bit too much. My fave line?
This might be my all-time favorite MadTV skit. Bobby Lee takes the title role for himself as the delicate and naive geisha in Memoirs of a Geisha. Pure genius.
Mad TV's Bobby Lee sits down with the internet's cutest bunnies and finds himself irrestistibly attracted to Chou Chou after a few awkward exchanges...
When I think of Margaret Cho, I think of her hilarious standup act in flashes of representative scenes. There's Margaret telling everyone how weird it is to be an Asian American on an airplane with a flight attendant offering you Asian chicken salad. ("That is not the salad of my people!") There's Margaret imitating her mother's cute Korean accent and puzzling over gay men and their, uh, interest in "the ass."
In this hilarious Mad TV spoof, the crazy crew takes on Hollywood's obsession with stories about white people going to inner city schools and saving their troubled youth. (And for the record, Bobby Lee rules.)
Mad TV's Bobby Lee cracks me up. He's almost always in drag, and almost always the funniest guy in their skits. Here he is as the beautiful and mysterious geisha in Mad TV's version of Memoirs of a Geisha.
