If this video is good enough for the internet, it's good enough for me.
I'm sure I don't have to tell you this, on account of it being so awesome you're going to watch the whole thing anyway, but make sure you watch the last 15 seconds of the movie. There's a special computer-generated surprise in store.

Chris Klein Auditions for 'Mama Mia'
Okay, I have a few things to say about this.
First, I have auditioned plenty in my day, and if footage of me ever got out, I would be mortified. Sorry, Chris Klein.
Second, this may be the worst professional audition I have ever seen.
And, even when he talks before hand about this audition being "real singing" as opposed to the "acting-singing" he did on American Dreamz, and when he stops in the middle to read lines from the script only to jump straight into "singing" again,
he seems completely unaware that he is just not good.
That having been said, the first time I watched it, I stopped at about 0:45.
Boring.
But, when Noah Garfinkle of BestWeekEver.tv urged me to watch the whole thing, I gave it a try. And I'm so glad I did.
As a lover of ABBA and Mama Mia!, this was more alarming than anything else. Try to at least truck it through till 1:15.

Follow me on Twitter!
So, most people that know about this blog are my friends, and most of my friends know that my twitter username is @RickyMartin. This has been a long saga of hilariousness, as I never pretend to actually be the Latin pop singer. My name is on the account, my picture is on the account, and I tweet as me. And yet, as of this moment, I have 1,546 followers, about 1500 of which remain unawares to the fact that I am actually a 23-year-old female living in Utah.
I have been e-mailed by twitter administrators asking for verification of my name, which ultimately resulted in the real Ricky Martin having to settle for the username @Ricky_Martin. I was nominated (though I did not win) for the title of "Mr. Twitter Puerto Rico". Also, upon gaining 1,000 followers, Emory C. has offered to throw me a latin-themed party.
I hovered around 500 followers until Ricky_Martin officially "came out of the closet," which pushed me to 1,000 followers. I was afraid to tweet anything for fear that my followers would get smart on me and unfollow, leaving me below the 1,000 mark and then the party plans would be over. So I have not tweeted anything for about a month.
Until last night, when I was trying to go grocery shopping at the Smiths in South Provo, but I couldn't because about a minute before I walked up, there was a shooting. Police were everywhere, costumers were running out of the store, and I had to do my shopping elsewhere. Then this happened:

Cause the party don't stop till NASA... gets to the party...?
This may be the oddest thing I have ever seen,
Ke$ha performing Tik Tok on SNL last week.
If you can pay attention to anything other than Ke$ha looking super uncomfortable,
try to watch the back-up dancers.
Bonus! Philosophical question at 3:09!

When you're done watching this, maybe someone can explain to me what makes Ryan Phillipe relevant enough to host SNL?

Happy Easter!
Holidays while away at are college an interesting experience.
My roommate Ally and I planned on making a festive Easter ham for dinner,
but we were too lazy to go to the store. She did end up making a casserole,
but our other roommates' friends ate that... so...
Luckily, my Easter was not without family.
My grandma sent me an Easter package filled with gluten-free
butterscotch cookies she made.
My sister sent pictures of my nephew collecting snakes at his Easter Egg Hunt.
Plus, HSM3 premiered on the Disney channel, and Ally and I spent the evening internet-stalking Zac Efron.
Though I do miss my family, I think nothing says "Easter" more than
animals dressed as people.

Academy Award Winning Trailer
This mock-trailer is intriguingly observant, smart and well-done. The more I watch it, the more I notice little things that are so funny, like how many times that one character says "Catch Phrase." Also the tub scene.
