Big congrats to Taylor Swift for winning Best Music Video at the 2016 Grammy Awards… but have you seen MY Bad Blood video? I mean, 16 million views and counting can’t be wrong! Clearly, the Grammys have not, or else the Barely Productions crew and I would be on that stage accepting the award. I’m just kidding Taylor. No one can beat you. Please forgive all my parody videos where I play you. Can I be part of your Squad?
The holidays are fast approaching and what better way to spend them than with the biggest hot messes in Hollywood? Welcome to a special Key of Awesome Christmas Parody Spectacular!
Oh what joy it is to play both Ke$ha and Taylor Swift!
This was the perfect way to end the crazy, wild ride that has been 2015. 
After a full day of hosting at The QYOU, I jumped on a red eye to NYC, got into a taxi, and made my way to the YouTube Space right above the bustling Chelsea Market, where I was immediately thrown into hair and makeup for Ke$ha…It took all of five minutes. 
Now, normally, rocking up to a shoot after being on a plane for six hours isn’t the best look, but apparently that’s exactly what they were going for! Yeah, a part of me was like, “Come on guys- please tell me I don’t look THAT crazy when I get off a plane!” Apparently I do. #WavyHairDontCare
After pretending to be drunk for the morning as Ke$ha, I switched into full Taylor Swift mode. And by switched, I mean I became completely innocent and naive. This meant it took at least 10 takes to figure out how to properly flip someone off. I’m not joking. To the right is the photographic proof of my innocence (I’m the one in the blonde wig). I believe this “lapse in judgement” was really a Christmas present to my parents, because after all the crazy videos I’ve put my family through, at least they’d be proud to know I haven’t mastered the art of flipping someone off… yet! Then I showed everyone what these guns were made of by hoisting up the amazing Mark Douglas for way too long- and voila!- the perfect Christmas anthem and photo thumbnail!
Happy Holidays! See you in 2016 B******!! (That was Ke$ha who said that- not me)
T Swift 2.0 is back!!
The masterminds at Barely Political/Key of Awesome brought me in to take on the impossible: parody a video that’s already a parody. Yep, we took on Taylor Swift’s massive hit Shake It Off, and the results are above.
I flew into NYC and we hit the ground running. The other Taylor Swift video I did for Barely Political is actually my favorite parody, probably due to the whole acting-like-a-complete-lunatic-and-it-being-socially-acceptable thing, so I was really excited to take another crack at our version of the T Swift character.
Memorable moments from the shoot included being the last one to the boat on the hot dog legs things (had noooo idea, but now that I know, wow!), I cannot smack someone on the face- even if it’s a fake slap (ahhh!), and peeking at people’s camel toes is really tough on the knees and elbows.
So sit back, relax, and enjoy the video! If you want to see more of my parodies- click here, here, and here.
My alter ego – Ke$ha 2.0 – is back!
This time, the Barely Political crew and I take on the infectious Ke$ha – Pitbull song Timber. The parody was shot over two days in New York City. It was pretty surreal, because while I was filming in this itty, bitty bikini, there was a full-on blizzard going on outside! And that blizzard was none other than the Polar Vortex Part Deux!
For those who are curious about the wardrobe choice – specifically the sheet hanging over my bottom- we were just being true to the original. Our theory is that the outfit was a little too revealing (you think!) and the real Ke$ha asked to have something added to cover up. This is just a theory and in no way authenticated by anyone close to the production. 😉
Enjoy the video!
2 Girls 2 Minutes is back! And I’m the new co-host! I was a guest on the show a few years ago when it was shooting in New York, and now that Amber and I are both in Los Angeles, we decided to bring back the popular web series.
It’s a very simple concept. Open up a bottle of wine and then chat with your girlfriend about funny topics for 2 minutes. Amber and I have known each other for years from working at Barely Political. You may remember her as Obama Girl.
So, as an homage to her past, we have put together a little video to find the presidential nominee his Romney Girl. I must say, Rockin’ Romney has my heart soul. Genius.
