Jay Pharoah As Barack Obama - And Those Who Played The Other 'SNL' Presidents
Jay Pharoah made his debut as President Barack Obama this weekend on Saturday Night Live - after being introduced by the actor he replaced in the role, Fred Armisen. Ever since the phenomenal take on the 2000 election and the debates before it, the casting of comedic takes on presidential candidates has more buzz than the next James Bond. Here's a quick history of SNL's presidents:
Fred Armisen/Jay Pharoah: Barack Obama. SNL had a decision to make when it came to casting Obama for the upcoming 2008 election. Kenan Thompson was the only African American on the cast, but his heavy build wa...

Can 'MacGruber' Break The SNL Movie Curse?
Of all the recent "Saturday Night Live" recurring characters, MacGruber seemed the least likely to land his own feature film. After all, the skit spends about 15 seconds with the action hero before he's blown to smithereens.
However, star Will Forte imagined greater things for our mulleted man of action, and he convinced Lorne Michaels and the powers that be to turn the skit into a 90-minute film that opens Friday.
"MacGruber" is getting solid buzz on the eve of its opening, but has to overcome the stigma that SNL films can't cut it both from a quality and financial standpoint. There ha...

Kim Kardashian Sells Diet Product On 'Tonight Show' (Video)
Kim Kardashian hocked her QuickTrim diet system on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, but she ended up spending most of her time teaching a guest how to properly toast.
Kim is the face of QuickTrim, a series of products designed to help lose weight. She appeared on the Tonight Show to talk about it, showing off a svelte figure in a tight outfit.
However, before Jay Leno and his prior guest Dana Carvey could try the drink (after assuring them it wouldn't give them diarrhea), she was adamant that Carvey get the toast right.
Her rules included looking in the eyes of the person you are toasting...

Nick Jonas And Chamillionaire To Play Free Show For Army Base
Pop star Nick Jonas and rapper Chamillionaire are pledging their support to the U.S. armed forces by playing a free show in Fort Hood, Texas following a fatal shooting at the army base last month.

9 Stars Who Have Felt The Wrath Of 'Halloween's' Michael Myers
When John Carpenter envisioned his horrific tale of a serial killer terrorizing his family more than 30 years ago, he likely had no idea that "Halloween" would become one of the longest-running film franchises ever.

Here are nine stars who have felt Michael Myers' wrath in the "Halloween" films.

Dana Carvey's 'Squatting Monkeys Tell No Lies' Premieres on HBO June 14

Mike Myers Dismisses Talk Of 'Wayne's World' 3
Comedian Mike Myers has shot down fans' hopes for a third Wayne's World movie - just two weeks after reuniting with co-star Dana Carvey for the 2008 MTV Movie Awards.
The funny duo teamed up once more as characters Wayne and Garth for a hilarious skit at the awards show earlier this month, but Myers insists the reunion was just for old time's sake. He says, "It's a wonderful idea and I loved doing these characters, but no."
Myers insists the awards show skit just allowed fans to get "caught up" in the nostalgia of the two hit Wayne's World films and he has no plans to follow it ...

Live from New York, it's Saturday Night! These seven words have been shouted from Studio 8H of Rockefeller Center since Lorne Michaels created "Saturday Night Live" in 1975. The original name of the show was simply "Saturday Night" because at the time ABC had a show entitled "Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell."
