Taylor Swift Spoofs Kanye, Kate Gosselin On SNL (VIDEO)

First Posted: 3/18/10 Updated: 5/25/11

Taylor Swift, host of this week's 'Saturday Night Live,' didn't spend much time addressing Kanye West's stage storming incident. She made brief mention in an opening song that included all the topics she doesn't want to talk about.

"You might be expecting me to say something about Kanye and how he ran up on the stage at the VMAs," she sang. "But there's nothing more to say, 'cause everything's OK. I've got security lining the stage."

She also referenced her nasty breakup with Joe Jonas:

"You might think I'd bring up Joe Jonas, that guy who broke up with me on the phone, but I'm not gonna mention him in my monologue. Hey Joe, I'm doing real well. Tonight, I'm hosting SNL but I'm not gonna brag about that in my monologue. La la la. Ha ha ha. La la la."

Later she spoofed Kate Gosselin, complete with reverse mullet, on 'The View.'

Sorry, but that Sucked, she should be thanking Kayne, because a whole group of people in this country never heard of her until he helped her by being stupid

Actually, she has sold more albums in the last year than any artist in any genre, so despite the fact that you may not have heard of her, plenty of people have.

for those that say "she writes her own songs" .... she needs help with the lyrics... they're pretty sophmoric.­.. she's a sad second rate Avril Lavigne

I watched SNL since 1975 and I thought Taylor Swift was the best host ever. She was in most of the skits and was the musical guest. She was really funny and had sparkling stage presence. I didn't know much about her before, but now I am a fan. Plus, except for a couple of taped segments, it was LIVE.

Kanye was right though... that video was so cliche and sophmoric. i prefer deeper music and deeper symbolism in music videos....

first. I though she was funny playing Kate Gosslin, that wig was hilarious.
second, this girl should be thanking Kanye West, because I never heard of this person before and if he hadn't snatched that mic from her, she wouldn't have gotten this much press. I still could care less about her music, but her skit on SNL was funny.

I haven't watched the show yet but my guess is that if Swift didn't totally bomb like Megan Fox did, there's a movie career in her very near future. Her music audience will grow up and move on in a year or two just like it did with the 90s nu metal and boy bands. Swift is tall, willowy, cute, blonde, likeable (and thanks to Kanye West, sympatheti­c), and only 19 years old. Lots of potential there. Plus, America is in the market for a new Sweetheart­.

She should thank Kanye for all of the work she's getting.

And their skits are horrible. They are still reading the jokes. The only one who marginally memorized his lines is the guy playing Whoopi and he's funny because??.­.. Because he actually knows his lines so he can focus on delivering them in a funny way.

It really p i sses me off that they can't hire another black person to do Sherri Shepherd. Or even President Obama.

Taylor Swift CAN act! And yes the Kanye West '"thing" was a plus for her career.

Taylor Swift has to be one of the most manufactur­ed "America's Darling" that she is becoming quite nauseating­.

Kanye West upstaging her at the VMA was the best thing to ever happen to Taylor Swift's career. Before that incident, all I knew about her was that she competed in American Idol (did she win? I don't know because I don't watch that cr@p)
10:50 AM on 11/09/2009
she didn't compete on American Idol

Kanye West's behavior was very ghetto,boo­rish and disrespect­ful. End of story. It makes no difference what you think about Swift; his interrupti­on was inappropri­ate, classless and out of line.

Kanye West is one of the most original authentic people on the planet. taylor swift is NOT self made. the studio made her. Want someone who made it on their own, check out Ani DiFranco and Righteous Babe Records (her million dollar record company.)
