It’s true! As played by Kate Hudson and Will Ferrell, though, for this never-before-aired SNL sketch. Will offers up his hammy Neil imitation (which is a side-parting and a set of shades away from his take on Goulet), with a glimpse at future film star Ron Burgundy (“By the beard of Odin!”), while Kate takes the opportunity to show you she’s a good candidate for the inevitable inaugural season of Celebrity American Idol.

Online reported aspects about her rendition to have odds just like the Super Bowl itself, including the probability she will wear a certain team jersey or, even more entertaining, the probability she will botch her lyrics as Christina Aguilera ...

At last year's Super Bowl, Christina Aguilera omitted some words in her rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. Other stars who have performed the anthem at the Big Game include Carrie Underwood, Whitney Houston, Billy Joel and Neil Diamond.

    How does a live show have unaired parts?

    I can see why this was unaired. It’s awful.

    probably taped dress rehearsal. i like kate hudson’s “nifty tush.”

    Hilarious. I love Will’s Neil.

  5. It’s sad, but this would probably be one of the best skits of 2007 if SNL aired it today.

    They do a final dress rehearsal in front of an audience right before they do the live show (in front of a different audience). There are a couple of skits more in that dress rehearsal than there are in the live show. They decide which skits get the axe based on the audience’s reaction, I think.

  7. this skit is awful, but will ferrell is killing me!

    “i swallowed a condom full of scorpion venom and if it bursts i will die, but believe me before i go down i will wear a child’s bikini–damn i’m good!”

    holy crap.

    with the judd apatow/seth rogen crowd making movies constantly.. what use does america have for will ferrell?

  9. Anytime Ferrel does Neil Diamond it’s gold, but nick is right, Seth Rogan and Judd Apatow are the new champs. I saw a facebook-only screening of Superbad last night and it’s funnier than anything Ferrel has done in about 2 or 3 years.

  10. huh, and here i was enjoying both apatow and ferrell’s work. i didn’t realize there could be only one, some sort of comedy highlander.
