LOLs!
Check out this hilarious interview with British comedian Ricky Gervais and Sesame Street’s Elmo. Ricky was on the set for an interview with Elmo that will air this November when Sesame Street premiers its 40th Anniversary episode.
It’s phenomenal how well the Elmo voice actor/puppeteer stays in character in the midst of all this craziness.
I JUST watched this right before coming to your site. It’s hilarious!
“Do you know what necrophilia is?”
Man, I used to do the best Elmo impersonation. Then I hit puberty.
It’s like Elmo is alive. That puppeteer is amazing!
Haha OMFG that’s too funny!
The best is when Elmo is yelling @ the lady, “Where did you lose this interview?!” Hahaaa!
Freakin’ awesome! Elmo rocked it!
Haaaa. I can’t stop watching this! What’s the little diddy they do at the end though??
“set your bigots free” I think?
set your piggies free
OMG I’ve watched this a couple of times now and it’s still bloody hilarious!
Love love love it!
what are they singing @ the end??
Very funny! My husband even muted the b-ball game to listen to the 2nd half!
You know, Elmo started really bugging me for a while, but I have found a new love for him! Hilarious!
Elmo’s puppeteer is AMAZING. I love how you can hear him almost crack up a couple of times.
Elmo and Ricky are laugh out loud hurt your tummy funny. I have always loved how witty the Muppets on Sesame Street are. It’s a GREAT show and I love that the show I grew up with is a show that my children are growing up with.
The funniest thing is that Elmo’s voice is that of a middle-aged black man. Kevin Clash is his name and he also did the voice for Baby Sinclair on “Dinosaurs”.
Up until now I have always hated Elmo. Now I love him just a little.
I still hate Elmo.
But I dig Kevin Clash.
What a great way to start my Friday off – thanks EB! :)
This is hilarious! I love how, when the puppeteer can’t stop laughing, he makes it look like Elmo is chuckling with Ricky Gervais instead of losing his cool. Good work!
WHERE DID YOU LOSE THIS INTERVIEW!?
They had way too much fun making this one! Funny stuff. More proof that Ricky is easily one of the coolest people in Showbiz.
