Even Sesame Street's Elmo loves Brad Pitt

This morning I found a very cute clip from Sesame Street with a reference to Brad Pitt and it made me giggle so I had to share it with you. In this episode of Sesame Street we discover that not even Elmo is immune to Brad’s popularity.

80529j1_elmo_b_gr_01In the clip, actor and comedian Ricky Gervais from The Office comes to visit Elmo on Sesame Street. Elmo’s having trouble falling asleep so Ricky tells him that maybe he needs a celebrity lullaby to help him drift off. Elmo asks what a celebrity lullaby is and Ricky explains that it’s when an “unbelievably famous person comes over and sings to you.”

Elmo then asks, “What famous person is going to sing to Elmo?” Ricky, holding a guitar, is confused and says, “What do you mean what famous person is going to sing to you?!”

Then Elmo gets very excited and asks, “Well is it Brad Pitt? Elmo loves Brad Pitt!”

Ricky is very discouraged when he tells him that he, Ricky Gervais, is going to sing, and Elmo asks, “Is Ricky Gervais a celebrity?”

It’s very cute! Then again, I can’t blame Elmo. As much as I love Ricky Gervais, I think a lot of people would be very happy to have Brad Pitt sing them a lullaby in bed. Who’s first?

    LOL! Very funny video. Thanks Sherry.
    lac – I like your idea. That would be so cute to see Brad & Angie on Sesame Street.
    Kimmy – Thanks for the links. Wow! I always thought Angie’s eyes were one of her best features and these posters really accentuate them. Gorgeous.

    OT: DAVID BECKHAM INSPIRED BY BRAD PITT

    David Beckham has a guilty secret — he steals his beards from Brad Pitt!

    The LA Galaxy soccer superstar — who’s married to former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham — says he is often inspired by the Fight Club actor when it comes to facial fuzz.

    “I am finally shaved now,” Beckham said. “I’ve got a little bit of stubble but I’m not like I was a few weeks ago. I saw Brad Pitt and I thought he looked really good.

    “He was one of my inspirations and then I started growing it and everyone around me was saying ’shave it, shave it, it looks terrible’ but I am a really stubborn person so I just thought ‘Nah, I’m going to keep it.’ Until people started to turn round and say I looked really good — then I decided to shave it again.”

    Hey guys, I was just searching Angelina on youtube looking for some different Changeling interviews that I may have not seen, and found this.

    It’s Angie singing with two other girls when she was 12. Thought someone may be interested. (:

    Kati- Your post reminded me how, in an interview about two years ago (just months after they adopted Pax), Angie said that she sang “Little Bunny Foo Foo” to Zahara before bed at night. I wonder if she still does?

    joliepittfanatic – I remember that interview. It was in Marie Claire shortly after they had adopted Pax. I really wish that Angie still sings that song (“Little Bunny Foo Foo”) to Zahara. Maybe it´s Princess Zee´s favorite song. Or maybe Angie now sings it to Knox and Viv. Who knows?

    Designer David Meister’s Tricks For Flattering Dresses

    ….While DAVID MEISTER (Fashion designer) says it would be a dream to dress Angelina Jolie (“She’s stunning”), he’s all about creating clothes that can be worn by more than one kind of woman. “None of us would make a living if we were only dressing models,” said David. “It would be beautiful, but we wouldn’t make any money.”

    I have had this thought for a long time and this might be a good thread to mention it on. When your Dad and Mom are actors I guess that there would be alot of play acting in this home. Reading a story book, singing songs I can picture the Jolie-Pitts all dressing up and playing out the parts. This is where I think Shiloh probably loves it so much she brings it into her everyday life. I can see Zee playing the princess or the dressed up pretty girl. If Brad is running around singing Monkeys on the Bed and Angie the PooPoo song, I just can image the fun they must all have. From where I am sitting these are six children that are well adjusted and happy. Moving around place to place is normal for them. My hat off to these two wonderful parents.
