My 9 for '09!

Hey, y'allz! With 2009 coming to an end, it's time to count down my favorite pop culture moments, people, movies, songs and ethnicities of 2009! Yey!!! Let's go!

9. I Love The Hangover!

I LOVE movies. I live for them! Sadly, though, this year's crop haven't done much for me. Except these two!!

I think I Love You, Man flew a bit under people's radar. Sucks for them! These movie is geeeeeeeeeeenius and gets better with every viewing. Behold! (Samberg alert) the trailer.



Those fish tacos are the tits, Joben.

The Hangover flew under absolutely no one's radar. Behold! the trailer.



And the world would never be the same.

8. David After Dentist!

I swear to you all, I invented this video.



A+

7. Angry Youtube Rants!

Why Christian Bale's people aren't campaigning for a Best Actor nom, I'll never know. This is the most emotional I've ever heard him, and he did it all in while in character!! Cheers.



And then there's this guy. While I have trouble believing someone could truly get this upset over some stranger bitch attacking Beyonce, I can't help but appreciate his commitment. You go, coco.



Perfection, thy name is....whatever this guy's name is.

6. KANYE!!!!!

Ok. It was rude. I get it. But, can we just put our feelings aside to admire the GENIUS work of Mr. West, here. I mean, he effortlessly turned himself into one of 2009's greatest pop culture villains (aside from Crizz Brown and possibly Jon Gosselin), BUT unlike those two, he didn't actually hurt anyone/damn 8 children to a life of therapy and/or drugs and/or sexual ~indescretions, which will ultimately make his return that much sweeter. Plus, that shoulder shrug is HILARIOUS.



Bonus Amber Rose, cuz she's fierce:



5. Asians!

Asians were so in this year (for me)! I didn't start watching J&K+8 until after the Gosselin marriage went to crap, but thank jeebus it did! Alexis and Aaden are the lights of my life.

I hate Maddy by the way. BIG HATE.

Also,

You're welcome.

And of course,



ADORABLE! It's funny that I didn't love the Asians until AFTER Oxford. Can you imagine the shitstorm had I liked Asians in high school?? Good lord.

4. Glee!

This isn't really the best clip from Glee, but Hulu didn't have Dancing With Myself anymore (assholes) so I went with another Artie-heavy clip. It's still pretty good, though. Kurt's intensity. Finn's...dancing? And the token maybe-hot minorities dancing. A+ Glee, A+



3. SNL.

I realize that SNL isn't all that great anymore (like, at all) but there are still moments where I find it funny. Deal with it.

Easily the best Digital Short of the year. Thanks JT.



I also liked Shy Ronnie. I didn't think Rihanna could be funny, but her eh's are perfect here.



Also, this needs to be said. Kenan Thompson is the best thing about SNL right now. Maybe it's just me. It's probably just me, but, he was on Kenan and Kel. Soooo, take that as you will. hahaha. All I'm trying to say is I love What Up With That and no one can take that away from me.



Political wiiiiiill. Genius. Also Jason Sudeikis dancing in the background? Will you marry me?

2. Lady Gaga

This was the moment I stopped hating Gaga.



And this was the moment I started loving her.



Dude.

1. LOST!


Okay, first of all I am addicted. Second, there is a RIDICULOUS amount of man candy on this show. From Jin (see shirtless man in the asian post) to Sawyer to Faraday. Bahahaha. K, maybe not Faraday, but I am mildly attracted to him. And by mildly....yeah.

And don't forget post-island Sayid's luxurious weave.

LOLZ!

YAY!!!! That's it, guys! My favorite things about 2009. And with that, I say goodbye to 2009 and haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to 2010 (I wonder how many of these things will still be on the list next year). So leave me your comments my children. Anything I missed. What did you love this year? And stay tuned for my Top 10 of the DECADE list. Coming soon!

bai.

Bonus Hirsch because I love him.

7. i'd like to think chris crocker made the youtube rant cool, just as alec baldwin made the voicemail outburst cool. what's next? skype outbursts?
6. you kno me, i love them douchebags. and amber rose should have been a stand alone category, perhaps since ALIENS are having the best year ever, y/y? district 9, amber rose, that awesome lettuce man in star trek? just sayin.
5. ia, ia. but where is rain!?
4. artie is the sex. duh.
3. omg shy ronnie was the greatest. and they let james franco guest host. win.
2. i'm glad you finally came to the dark/gaga side...i felt a little lonely doing my poker face dance by my lonesome ova here!
1. i wish i was involved in this..but i do enjoy that weave.

extra things i loved:

- the obvious hotness of tom felton that stood out to me this year (waddup hawt draco in half blood prince?!?!)
-KE$HAAAA! she came in a little late to the foreground, but she was spinnin' us right round all of '09! we didn't even know! it was like foreshadowing her amazingness!
AND it was featured in the hangover! double whammy!!!
- horrible/awesome reality shows- jersey shore, teen mom, 16 & preggerz, kardashians, kourtney & khloe, real housewives of ______, etc. etc.
-GIFS! i loved those gifs in '09!

kbye:)

Alexis said...

ahahaha. i considered rain, but he's only good for his shirtlessness, and i think jin covered that pretty well. i hate that flo rida song, though, so mb next year. mb jersey shore next year, too. if all goes well. tom felton's cool, i guess. lul. you got me on the gifs, though. damn. hahaha. also, mom, i would never, could never forget the hirsch. EVAR.

8. That kid is a star.

7. Christian Bale freakout will forever be my favorite celeb freakout.

BITCH YOU STRANGER I DON'T LIKE YO ASS! ♥

6. #FREEKANYE I think I was part of the few :'( that actually LOLed and was like...HE IS SO RIGHT

SQUINTY EYED BITCH I HATE YOU!

5. Meh Gosselins. so over them.

4. Glee. Dont Rain On My Parade = perfection.

3 I hate you SNL. You ain't funny.

2. LOVE LADY GAGA. LOVE LOVE! And I like that you like her now :]

1. Who still watches Lost? Ugh.

PS. Jersey Shore needs an honorable mention

Maggie said...

This list was pretty good.

I don't agree with a lot of it though lol. Hate Kanye always and forever. Ummm shy Ronnie was dumb but Rhianna was super hot so it's all good. I'm glad you didn't use I'm on a boat... Lost is ehhhh, always thought that show was boring. The Hangover and I Love You man are amazing and definitely the funniest movies of the year. David after dentist is hilarious, I love that kid! I can't believe how good Glee was, never thought I'd get into a show about show choir but it ended up being my second favorite new show, favorite was Jersey Shore, can't believe you left those Guiedos and Guiedettes out lol. Pauly D is the best thing to hit MTV! I also fell into Lady Gagas trap this year I admit it! But that whole hanging in blood thing was a bit akward lol.


Can't wait for the best of the decade! That's gonna be a great one!
