Dang spiders. I have killed a few just like that off my DH. Girl has to do what she has to do when spiders invade.

Heh.

Did you then do a ""foot five"" afterwards? Smiley Wink

Of course...one has to make sure the spider is dead.

Foot five - hilarious.

Love Maya. She is one of the best.

That was the icing on the cake for me. 8)

I look forward to Maya's show tonight. Sidenote, did you guys know she's Minnie Riperton's daughter, a singer from the '70s? The song I remember her from is "Lovin' You".

Yep, but for those who don't - cool. 8)


Minnie was married to songwriter and music producer Richard Rudolph from 1972 until her death in the summer of 1979.
They had two children - a son, music engineer Marc Rudolph, and Maya.

It was clever and hilarious. Maya was really the best part as Beyonce. Loved her line that she woke up and found the "vidya" of them and she said "Uh oh uh oh uh oh, no no no!* And they kept the fan blowing in her hair the whole time. It was just too funny!

I am looking forward to Maya's variety show, she is such a clever comedian and actress and I can see it being good family entertainment like the Carol Burnett Show was when I was growing up.

I know! {#emotions_dlg.lol}

The fan on just her was perfect, as everywhere she goes that's what happens, LOL. Smiley Wink

Me too, and she can sing as well. I looked forward to "The Carol Burnett Show also' - consistently-good weekly family entertainment has been missing for a long time.

And no I didn't know she was her daughter, who is her father?

Ahh... those lovely lyrics & that pure angelic soprano. Except, at least for me, when she hit those extremely high notes. Smiley Wink

See my post further down for the answer. 8)

Props must be given to the bodyguard part in this skit, the way he jumped in every time Solange raised so much as a finger and then he choked/gagged when they said they've never had a rift. HAHAHA

The security guard part also, caught on camera digging, kissing and break dancing was funny, too.

But Maya playing Beyoncé was hiss ster i cal !!!

Hope Bey has a sense of humor about herself.{#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}

Yep, Keenan Thompson was funny there.

Bobby Moynihan break-dancing in the elevator was the best!

And Maya.. there are no words, LOL.

I think Bey does have a good sense of humor; Jay too. They really have to, ya know? Smiley Wink

I've liked all the movies she's been in, too.

Me, too.

Have you seen "Away We Go" with her & sweet/cute John Krasinski in it? Nice character & situation study with humor as well.
