Facebook Stalking: Funny. Enrique Iglesias’ Hat: Funnier.
Penn Masala, Penn's Hindi a cappella group, has produced a fairly amusing new music video about Facebook stalking. It has some frighteningly true-to-life moments (Seriously, who hasn't Photoshopped himself over a crush's boyfriend at some point?), plus the best pick-up line we've heard in a while: "I just want to add you."
But for a truly transcendent experience, you have to see the video for the song it parodies, Enrique Iglesias' "Hero." Because as usual, the least intentional humor wins. Take Enrique's watch cap -- it's a good thing he remembered that, out there in the blazing desert sun and all. We also enjoyed the part where he rubs down Jennifer Love Hewitt with handfuls of dollar bills (as if Nelly hadn't already explored that artistic ground in 2004's "Tip Drill"). Add Mickey Rourke and Mickey Rourke's aviators, JLH's gratuitously wet t-shirt, and Enrique's insistence on singing his last breath, and you realize why Penn Masala felt compelled to piggyback on the glory.
Allot yourself some time. These should really viewed as a double-feature:
