FLOYD: Famous for his SNL roles as DJ SuperSoak, the dancing guy in the track suit in What Up With That?, and something else (maybe?),
Jason Sudeikis' fee-fees may have been hurt because he didn't get a super-sweet sendoff like Kristen Wiig and now he's not sure if he's leaving, or whether he just wants to keep having sex with January Jones, Jennifer Aniston, Olivia Wilde, Eva Mendes, or someone else clearly above his pay grade.
I fully expect he's staying at least through the fall, because they won't want to recast Romney and Biden during election season.
ReplyDeleteI hope Sudeikis' last sketch is a look inside of the life of the What Up With That? Track Suit Guy, where we find out that he's almost completed Ph.D in molecular biology and only works on DeAndre Cole's show as a means to pay rent.
ReplyDeleteI don't know of it was intentional, but this came off as an oddly hostile post about this guy based on barebones reporting (a paraphrase of a Daily News story citing "an NBC source tells us that water-cooler talk. . .") that he may have been angry rather than just emotional. I may not be a body language expert (or, really, a passable dancer or all that adept at feeling/recognizing human emotion), but his dance with Wiig seemed touching to me, particularly as it lingered at the end, and not resentment fueled.
ReplyDeleteClearly Sudeikis doesn't have Wiig's SNL or film accomplishments (though I think he played a huge part together with one of Wiig's best characters in 2 A-holes, and he was funny in those ESPN Classic sketches as well as Horrible Bosses), but his unaccountable ability to date above his own level of attractiveness is no reason to hate on the man. . .unless you're going to express an equal amount of hatred at Fred Armison, who is both my laughter kryptonite and irritatingly successful with my celebrity crush objects.
I have no opinion on Sudeikis, but "fee-fees" is going into my personal vocabulary immediately.
ReplyDeleteI guess it's natural to expect rumors after Saturday's show-- Wiig got a uniquely elaborate sendoff, and it's not like Sudeikis hasn't been a core member of the cast. But I won't deny that divorcing Kay Cannon immediately followed by taking up with Aniston and (quite publicly) Jones at nearly the same time is eyebrow-raising behavior. So I wouldn't be so surprised about him making his feelings known.
ReplyDeleteI hated Horrible Bosses and really think his characters on SNL need some work, but he's a Jayhawk. So I'm behind him 100 percent. We have so few famous, non-basketball related alumni out there--Bill Curtis, Don Johnson, Paul Rudd. He can date whomever he wants, but as long as he keeps taking pictures like this: http://espn.go.com/espn/page2/index?id=7621518 I'm fine. Or maybe it's the Jon Hamm quotient. (Stupid Mizzou.)
ReplyDeleteAnyways. Like Carmichael Harold, I though he was genuinely upset that Wiig was leaving, not that he was resentful of her send-off.
Guest was me. Sorry!
ReplyDeleteIf i can't be oddly hostile based on half-formed information on a BLOG, where can I?
ReplyDelete"possibly out of sadness"
ReplyDeleteThere is something ridiculously strange about this phrase in this context but I can't put my finger on it right now.
The man's list of bedded women is impressive
ReplyDeleteWhile certainly not famous for it, Sudeikis is actually a basketball-playing Jayhawk. He was a serious highschool player and played on an AAU team with several people who ended up in the NBA.
