I'm gonna have to start off here by saying that this list was inspired by James Brown's brilliance in clip #1. It doesn't even need embellishment by Eddie Murphy...and we're talking 1983 Eddie Murphy not Eddie Murphy of late, but I digress. Listen it's hard out there in the spotlight - not so easy facing those cameras. Sippin back on that liquid courage* or your other drug of choice might just seem like a fine idea. If you can find enough videos of Keith Richards being interviewed sober, mash'em up into a channel like so and send it our way.
*alcohol, as noted by father figure in the early teens birds'n'beez talk.
1. James Brown - the Godfather of Soul, The Hardest Working Man in Show Business, not gonna let domestic violence charges get him down. May he rest in peace and never enunciate.
2. Nirvana. Oh Nirvana...you had me at Bette Middler. You lost me at "vibes." You had me back at "well trees came before logs." So eco-conscious, even ahead of your time.
3. Danny Devito. Too many limoncellos with George Clooney the night before. Hell I'd get riproaring drunk if I had to deal with the Barbara Walters before noon.
4. Paula Abdul. The town drunk's idol.
5. Joe Namath. In his defense, he's at a football game...and he's Joe Namath. Anyway who wouldn't want to make out with that reporter.
6. Nicolas Sarkozy. It's the G8, nbd. As if French didn't already sound like drunk jibberish. Word his he's married to a babe.
7. The Pogues. The reporter is holding you up during your interview. The kicker, you're still probably going to get laid...you're a rock star. A rock star with dixie cup full o'gin.
8. Courtney Love. Courtney AND Kurt Cobain on one list! Kurt Loder manages himself with Seacrestian composure as he invites trainwreck Courtney up to crash Madonna's party. MTV couldn't even stage this brilliance if they tried...and they do try.
9. Keith Richards - I mean this is fairly tame for Keith Richards - many shades of Jack Sparrow's seen here - but the list...it would not be complete without him.
