Did you catch LMFAO at Halftime? No, not the actual Super Bowl halftime show. That was Madonna. But LMFAO did appear in a Bud Light commercial, in which they were booked to play at a bar named Halftime on Super Bowl Sunday. In December, Jonah Weiner wrote that the duo are "dance-floor jesters who doff their dignity, like breakaway pants, not merely for our amusement but for our betterment: They encourage us to shed some dignity ourselves in the name of uninhibited fun." The article is reprinted below.?
The trailer for 2005?s Potheads: The Movie promotes a no-budget stoner comedy about four kids who, after running afoul of some fearsome drug dealer, must steal ?25 pounds of medical marijuana??or else. On the available?evidence, Potheads is not only poorly titled and poorly premised, but also poorly acted, poorly written, poorly edited, poorly lit, and poorly miked. Toward the trailer?s end there is an unexpected appearance, however, of actual comic talent. A twentysomething guy with a large afro and baggy sweat shorts appears on screen, attempting to intimidate an antagonist via dance moves. Credited on the film?s IMDb page as Stefan Gordy, he breaks into a spastic jig, drops to all fours, and skitters across the concrete on his hands and knees: ?The Doggy! The Doggy!? he says, calling out his move in an idiot singsong descended from Adam Sandler. He raises a knee off the ground: ?Pee-pee on you!? As a bit of inane physical comedy, the Doggy is a burst of inspired silliness amid the trailer?s excruciating ineptitude. If that guy with the afro played his cards right, he could be a star.
