Amber Rose is an absolute treasure. Not only will she not be condescended to or slut shamed over her openness about her body, but she's also got a sense of humour about it, which is why she teamed up with Funny or Die for one of the best videos the site has done in ages. In it, Rose has a one night stand with a guy who remains unseen until the end of the video (which is part of the joke), and she struts on home in the morning with glee instead of shame. It's pretty great.

Meryl Streep is, without a doubt, the best living actress - not to mention one of the best actresses in history overall. She's a legend on screen, and just so happens to be just as warm, intelligent, and funny in real life as she is in the movies. Christina Applegate teamed up with Funny or Die this week to create a trailer for Meryl: The Lifetime Biopic - a movie that will obviously never hit our screens, but is hilarious nonetheless.
In the trailer, Christina dresses up as some of Meryl'...
Barack Obama has ushered in a whole new level of cool to the presidency, making appearances on late night chat shows, giving well-humoured speeches and basically just being completely accessible in a way this country hasn't ever seen in a leader. While I'm sort of torn on how I feel about that in a philosophical way - should the leader of the free world lower himself to doing comedy bits? - on surface level, I find him completely charming and endearing and a lot of fun.
That being said, his a...
Dean Norris, who plays Hank on Breaking Bad, just released this video he made where he reads the final scene of the last episode of the show. It's...pretty shocking. Breaking Bad is in its last season with only (sob) 5 episodes left but if you just can't wait...watch the video.

I'm pretty sure NO ONE saw that coming. I mean I think we all knew there was going to be a Walt/Hank showdown...but not like that. What a daring move!

Anyone with an internet connection and a few minutes to waste has read the insane sorority girl email that hit the internet last week from University of Maryland Delta Gamma member Rebecca Martinson, and with good reason - it's f-cking hilarious. But as these online sensations tend to do, it got old pretty fast and no one really cared. That is, until Boardwalk Empire star Michael Shannon came forward with a dramatic reading of the letter for Funny Or Die.
Michael Shannon is an amazing actor who's criminally underrated, so he was the perfect choice to portray the deadpan, extremely mental tone of the words, naturally. Chances are you've probably seen this already, too, but it's that good, we couldn't not post it. />

Can I ask, please, why John Goodman just isn't in more things these days? Because he's just amazing. When he starred for that one season on Treme, I couldn't have been happier, but then when the end of the season rolled around and they killed him off, I was so, so upset. Disappointing.
The thing is, I'm just now hearing about this show called 'Downwardly Mobile', which is Roseanne's new sitcom featuring ... you guessed it---John Goodman. How did I miss this? Emily wrote about this back in February ... and I call myself this "Managing Editor." Way to go, Sarah. Way to go.
Anyway! John Goodman! Funny or Die! He's fabulous! Go watch! />KFC Loves Gays with John Goodman from John Goodman

Oh man. This is so over-the-top and ridiculous that it's actually funny, unlike many of the other 'Funny or Die' videos that we've ran here. Remember Vanessa Hudgen's FOD? God. The worst. Rachel Bilson's? Equally bad, if not slightly worse. The only one that ever really made me chuckle even a little bit was the one that featured Courtney Stodden. That one was alright, I suppose. At least when you compare it to Vanessa's and Rachel's and, of course, we can't forget
The thing about this "trailer," however, is that it's completely believable. I mean, I could honestly see this movie being made. All they have to do is build around the preview. It's all there, right in front of them. It's like 'Battleship' meets 'Independence Day' meets horrible, craptastic SyFy made-for-TV movies THAT I LOVE like 'Seattle Superstorm'.
Can we get a hold of someone who can really make this happen? Please? />Chutes and Ladders - watch more funny videos

Here's a little something-something to cap your night off: Charlize Theron's "exclusive" "leaked sex tape" just for you!
Courtesy of Funny or Die, Charlize stars in her own spoof of a sex tape. And it's probably one of the best celebrity sex tapes I've ever seen, especially when compared to Kim Kardashian's or Paris Hilton's. If you can't watch the video, I'll give you the blow-by-blow - no pun intended.
The video opens with Charlize telling her boyfriend that she hopes no one sees the tape, and that Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton should "move over," because she's into some real kinky shit. A CD is put on, featuring the chanting sounds of Gregorian monks (at least that's what I think they are), and two men on a bed in full bondage attire are shown. Charlize speaks in a guttural grunts, and ... and then it's over. It's funny, yeah, but it's also kind of disturbing, and I don't mean it in a good way.
Just ... I don't know. Just watch the video and you'll see what I mean. I'm going to have a hard time sleeping tonight, I think. />Charlize Theron's Kinky Sex Tape from Charlize Theron

Sometimes, guys, it's like lightning strikes. Just yesterday I posted a 'Guess the Celebrity!' who turned out to be Dave Franco, James Franco's younger brother. And as always, you guys did not disappoint, and a reader-turned-friend made me hip to the fabulousness that is the video above.
The FOD features Dave Franco and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, or as some of you might know him, McLovin'. And it's unbelievable. And I found myself pretty attentive in the first few seconds where it just appeared to be Dave Franco, giving a monologue about how hot you are. Pretty. damned. attentive.
Anyway, I don't know *how old it is, don't know how irrelevant it is, the video's funny as hell, and if you don't at least crack a smile during the whole thing (which, girl, I know you are not watching or listening to at work without a good set of earphones), then you're probably dead. In which case, you should have somebody refresh your browser for you, because you're *really* f-cking up our visit length statistics. How long have you been here?
*OK, it's like, a year old. It's old. But that isn't going to stop me from sharing, folks. It's way too good for it not to have a place in perpetuity here on Evil Beet. I'm really sorry for being so tardy to the party. />You're So Hot with Chris Mintz-Plasse and Dave Franco from Dave Franco

Did you know that polycystic ovary syndrome is thought to affect as many as 10% of all women of reproductive age? It's true! It is the most common endocrine disorder and the #1 reason many women have fertility issues.
If you have ever visited a doctor, his or her first line of defense---and he will prescribe this without actually testing you for cystic ovaries, just because it's such a handy, efficient drug---is birth control pills. But what if you don't have health insurance? Your pills might cost $75 every month! Maybe some months you buy birth control pills instead of toilet paper! Hilarious!
Oh, look, a video.
Among those playing the roles of the Middle-Aged Dudes who know all about women's health are: Twin Peaks' Ray Wise! The dad from That 70s Show and Dead Poets Society! Parks and Recreations' Nick Offerman! (I'm not sure that Mr. Megan Mullally is quite "middle-aged," but then again, I am old.) Plus, Tim Meadows, who is rocking some really radical 1960s NASA eyeglasses. Those glasses say "expert."
And then there is Judd Nelson, who my friend Robyn briefly convinced me was dead. I was so upset, you guys. She was like, "Yeah! Years ago, I think!" and I was like, "Oh, my God, oh, my God, when was Suddenly Susan canceled anyway, oh, my God." And then I was like, "Wait, are you thinking of David Strickland?" And now Robyn was very, "Um, I think I know who Judd Nelson is," all indignant, and then I was mad with grief. I love you, Judd!
The video also features Corey Stoll, a stage actor about whom I am ten kinds of crazy. I almost didn't recognize him without his Law & Order: Los Angeles mustache! YOU CAN PUT YOUR LAWS AND ORDERS ON MY BODY ANYTIME, COREY! Just kidding, you can't, because I'm a feminist. (You are still nice to look at, however.)
This video is possibly NSFW thanks to a catalogue of euphemisms for ladyparts. However, the most disturbing of these "euphemisms"---uttered by none other than Ray Wise---is probably "tummy pockets." />

Ever see that video of Seth Rogen doing stand-up comedy as a 13-year old? OK, great. Because, oddly, it's exactly the same as Seth Rogen now. Like he isn't that funny! Sorry! Winning, yes. Charming, yes. Funny? Sigh.
That isn't to say the man can't land some zingers.
Here he is hosting the Independent Spirit Awards! I like the Spirit Awards a lot. You can hear people eating, and it's very much more like prom. Seth Rogen curses a lot! He's really uncomfortable!
Here's a joke I liked: "I was committed to watching all your movies---that's one of the things you have to do when you host---and I made it through the first five minutes of every single one of them. And, uh, some of 'em start pretty slow! I will tell you that right now! Pretty f---king slow!"
But Rogen will be better remembered for his takedown of Chris Brown (it's at 5:25). The joke:
"I honestly bet, though, that Brett Ratner really wishes that he was organizing the Grammys, because they seem much more forgiving than the Oscars altogether. Seriously. You say a few hateful things, they don't let you within a hundred yards of the Oscars. You could literally beat the shit out of a nominee, they ask you to perform twice at the Grammys."
And as soon as he lands his punchline, check out Patricia Clarkson! She is freaking out! That woman hates Chris Brown! (Kirsten Dunst is more like "oh, my God," but Kirsten Dunst is always like that in the face of controversy, grabbing her pearls and promising whoever is sitting nearby that she completely disapproves.)
Finally, John C. Reilly's hat! Hi there, John's hat! />

Oh, also? Watch for Alison Brie (love her) and Tommy Lee. And Kevin Farley, who I did not recognize!
Lolololololololol at "I don't cry myself to sleep." The rest of these one-liners are a little too crass to list. (And by the way! Don't watch this at work!) />
