Andy Samberg attends the 2011 White House Correspondents' Association Dinner at the Washington Hilton on April 30, 2011 in Washington, DC.
Andy Samberg (L), Bill Hader and Fred Armisen attend the MSNBC Correspondents' after party with FIJI Water at Embassy of Italy on April 30, 2011 in Washington, DC.
This is the event that Andy mentioned on Regis and Kelly that we posted.
Andy Samberg and Joanna Newsom are still together this week! I know you want to constantly know, so now you do! They were seen at a diamond collection on Wednesday. ===================
Former CFDA fashion funder Irene Neuwirth debuted her first ever diamond collection on April 27th at Barneys...
Unfortunately, no Andy pics:
Several of Neuwirth’s super hip celebrity friends were on hand to help her celebrate her “couture moment” including Michelle Williams, Joanna Newsom, Busy Phillips, Harvey Weinstein and SNL‘s Andy Samberg. If you read Andy Samberg and thought, “Wha? What’s he doing there?” he goes way back with Neuwirth–all the way back to what he called “unofficial Jew camp” (that, and he dates Newsom). Neuwirth confirmed “It was called Camp Skylight.”
But Samberg is also a fan of Neuwirth’s creations, so much so that he told us he’s special ordered a “bejeweled chastity belt, mission impossible style.” Wonder how Newsom feels about that…
■ 5:50 PM - We walk to the line in front of Amoeba.
■ 6:00 - 7:00 PM - We anxiously wait for them to let us in
and I saw this awesome kid:
■ At about 7:05 they LET US IN. Desiree and I got pretty good standing views since we were in the front of the line
■ 7:30 - THE DUDES CAME OUT AND WE WERE ALL FREAKING:
■ 8:15 PM - The Q&A was over and it was time for the Dudes to sign everyones [stuff]. We were supposed to like.. go in the back of the line basically, but everything was so unorganized everyone just kinda cut.
■ Around 8:30 - IT WAS OUR TURN. I was like waiting there even though Jorma had a spot open for someone to come up. I was so scared. I remember the security dude telling me, “Calm down, don’t be nervous!” But I was shaking.
The Lonely Island came to AMOEBA records in Berkeley for some Q&A from fans.
And here's video #2 from Rayanna:
The creators of this second vid (Rayanna) currently plan to delete this when they upload a longer version with all their footage. Rayanna, could you let us know when you upload the full vid?
Thanks to Anony for the scoop (and Rayanna for the comment)!
Anony said, "I think the reason they did it yesterday at Amoeba Records had somehting to do with the fact that it was Record Store Day yesterday."
Andy Samberg on the blue carpet for the New York premiere of the romantic comedy 'Just Go With It". The premiere was held at the Big Apple's famous Ziegfeld Theater.
February 8, 2011
So why is Andy Samberg at the premiere of "Just Go With It"?
Could this be part of his relationship with Adam Sandler and the Happy Madison production crew about the possible matching of Andy as Adam's son for the upcoming "I Hate You Dad" movie?
Andy Samberg and Pee-wee Herman (aka Paul Reubens) were spotted leaving the NBC studios the night/morning, right after their digital short aired on "Saturday Night Live."
Andy Samberg Campaigning For Rahm Emanuel In Chicago
Andy Samberg of "Saturday Night Live" will be in Chicago Friday--headlining a fundraiser for the man he impersonates quite well.
Politics Daily reports that Samberg will headline a $50-per-person fundraiser for Emanuel Friday. The event will be held at the Paris Club in River North.
Samberg's endorsement comes as former President Bill Clinton headlines a $5,000-per-ticket fundraiser for Emanuel at the Chicago Cultural Center Tuesday, and just one week after Grammy-winning singer and actress Jennifer Hudson performed at a House of Blues fundraiser for the candidate.
Emanuel is already considered the front-runner in the Feb. 22 mayoral primary, as several polls have shown him with a considerable lead. He must receive at least 50 percent of the vote to win outright, or a runoff will be held in April.
WATCH a particularly hilarious Rahm impersonation by Samberg here:
This is great of Andy! Reportedly, Andy was invited to the White House to meet Rahm. Actually, Andy did an interview before that where he wondered if he'd get invited (knowing that past SNL cast members have been invited when doing impersonations). And then he got invited after that (maybe the interview gave Rahm the idea).
Regardless, they're obviously friends now, and this is a great opportunity for Andy to support Rahm and to get his name out there more.
