SNL

You asked for it, and you got it. After a serious Facebook movement gathered nearly half a million fans for getting Betty White on Saturday Night Live, word comes that she will in fact be appearing on the show.

White is not saying much about her appearance, except to confirm it. So we don't know if she's hosting, or just appearing.

We're done thinking that Tracy Morgan is an act. He is Tracy Jordan on 30 Rock, which is to say totally nuts.

His new book, I Am the New Black, comes out next week, but we got some choice snippets in the meantime. Morgan doesn't have very nice things to say about his former SNL castmembers, Chris Kattan and Cheri Oteri. They never respected him, he says, but he thinks they got some comeuppance.

For once, it's not Megan Fox's mouth causing a problem. She hosted the season premiere of Saturday Night Live this weekend, and she was fine, though she wasn't given much to do.

It was no surprise to us that this weekend that Tina Fey picked up another Emmy as a guest actress on Saturday Night Life for her brilliant spoof of Sarah Palin last year.

The Primetime Emmy Awards may not be given out until next weekend, but overachiever Tina Fey has already won herself one.

Fey was awarded the Best Guest Actress in a Comedy Series Emmy at last night's Creative Arts Primetime Emmys for her impersonation of Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live.

In her acceptance speech, Fey thanked SNL producer Lorne Michaels and her parents, "who are lifelong Republicans, for their patience."

Congratulations, Tina! And good luck next weekend.

The body known as Jessica Biel attended the New York premiere of her new film, Easy Virtue, in New York last night.

Can you say, “Slammin’”?

She walked the red carpet with her co-star Ben Barnes before hitting the afterparty at the Gramercy Park Hotel with her boyfriend, Justin Timberlake, who absolutely dominated on SNL this weekend.

It was the best episode in longer than we can remember.

Jessica has been busily preparing for her big musical debut at the Hollywood Bowl this summer in Guys and Dolls (we already have tickets).

Former SNL star Maya Rudolph and her partner, crazy director Paul Thomas Anderson, are expecting their second child together.

Maya, 36, who next stars as a pregnant woman searching for a place to call home with her husband, played by John Krasinksi, in Away We Go, made the announcement to ET Canada on Monday. 

“I wasn’t planning on sharing it, but yes I am pregnant!”

Rudolph and Anderson are parents to a three-year-old daughter named Pearl.

This time, Maya says, it’s a totally different ballgame. 

“They’re like, 'eight seconds until you’re on,' and you’re still butt naked. How are you supposed to walk out in eight seconds?”

--Zac Efron on the hyper-speed SNL costume changes.

Honey, you can walk out naked any damn time you please.

Zac Efron sat down with Matt Lauer on the Today Show this morning, and of course, Kathie Lee decided to come out and make it ALL about her.

In case you missed it, Zac appeared in an SNL sketch this weekend where Kristen Wiig played a lushed-out Kathie Lee and Zac was her beloved, super peppy “singer” son, Cody.

You know Cody, the one she’s been constantly harping on for the last 19 years.

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens were snapped making their way into the infamous Saturday Night Live afterparty at New York City’s Heartland Brewery early Sunday morning.

We so wanted to love Zac’s episode.

But we didn’t.

He needed to come out and pull the Timberlake card: play to his strengths (singing and dancing), but doing it in a way that’s so outrageous, people can’t help but take notice.

Zac played it way too safe and he ended up making the same face, a sort of tight lip look of bemused terror, throughout the entire show.
