Good god, Chelsea Peretti gets around. And with such a who’s who of utter randomness. First, it was Pras from The Fugees. Then there was that fling she had with comic legend, Jonathan Winters. And who could forget her recent three-way sexcapade with SNL’s Amy Poehler and Fred Armisen?
Well, now it appears Ms. All My Exes is attempting to resurrect her failed relationship with a one Ze Frank (seen here dislodging his arm from Chelsea’s skull?).
Yes, that’s THE Ze Frank. The Internet auteur who got all famous a few years back with this lil’ viral gem, and then promptly ascended to avant-online-comic genius status with the funniest website this side of Funny Or Die (heh). And then of course, there was his year-long Show that we’re sure you’re all familiar with. But just in case you’re not, it was brilliant (he actually requested fans to write the show for him). Here’s an episode from exactly one year ago today.
So, now that we’ve successfully proven that we indeed know who Ze Frank is (or at least took the time to Google him), we thought we’d also share this talk he gave at a 2004 TED conference. And we use “talk” in the loosest sense of the word.
Apparently, Ms. All My Exes goes both ways at the same time (?) with SNL stars.
(Talk about NSFW. What a bunch of freaks.)
And apparently, Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein (the badass guitarist in Sleater-Kinney) compose the beautiful music they make under the banner ThunderAnt over the phone.
And apparently, Amy Poehler played a character named Veronica Mung in the most misunderstood movie that nobody saw in 2007, Southland Tales. Veronica Mung?? Wow.
This Sunday, the comic legend turns 82-years-old. To celebrate, he’s breaking Chelsea Peretti’s heart. That’s him in today’s premiere of All My Exes #4. He’s playing a doddering old guy named Lowell who also happens to be Chelsea’s oldest former boyfriend to date.
For those of you too young to know or care who Jonathan Winters is, that’s OK. He probably doesn’t give a shit. Safe to say, he’s too busy still being amazing. Just look at this book he wrote back in the day. We haven’t read it (we don’t read!), but just the title and cover alone make us want to date him:
And how about “art?” You guys like the “art,” right? Seriously, what former TV and movie star can you think of that’s plowing through his eigth decade on this planet doodling pictures called “A Long, Hard Climb, To Visit A Grave?” This is just a sample of his stuff on jonathanwinters.com:
And if you whipper-snappers still need further proof of this man’s genius, watch this interview he did with Santa Barbara public access queen, Connie Bryan. Itz sooo goooood.
What?! Who made that rule up? Francois “Papa Doc” Duvalier? Harry Belafonte? Does that apply to dudes in Florida too? Would the phrase “Tastes like jerk chicken” help this situation at all? And who made this sweeping declaration, anyways?
Why, none other than Prakazrel Samuel Michel in today’s premiere of Chelsea Peretti’s new series, All My Exes.
Most of us know him as Pras. He’s also been a Fugee, a Ghetto Superstar and “Disco Boy” Tony C. (for those of you who actually saw Mystery Men). In All My Exes, he plays the first of Chelsea’s ex-boyfriends to be sat down for an uncomfortable on-camera chat about what went wrong in their relationship. Not to give too much away, but the breakup may have had something to do with his dietary restrictions.
