In case you missed it while you were cooking the turkey (or recovering from a turkey-induced coma), the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade got Rick Rolled! By Rick Astley himself! (Lookin' pretty good, I might add.

Rick Astley is making one hellavah Internet comeback! Unlike the cutie pie who couldn't stop drooling over the '80s rocker, this psycho can't stop ranting and raving. She hates his songs more than she hates anything in her life, and she's not kidding.
