'Weird Al' Yankovic instructed the public to 'Eat It,' music videos have been ripe for mockery. And rightly so: The line between hip and hilarious is a fine one, indeed. For comedians, the rabid pursuit of cool on constant display in music videos is easy pickings. And maybe it's because comics secretly want to be pop stars, but some of the funniest material of the the past decade has been song spoofs. Here are three of my favorite funny music video parodies of the 2000s.
'Like a Boss,' the Lonely Island
In this 'Saturday Night Live' digital short, Andy Samberg is asked in a job performance review by Seth Rogen what he does in the office all day.
'Laundry Day (My Freeze Ray),' Dr. Horrible
Neil Patrick Harris plays a lovesick would-be supervillain in this charming, witty -- and more than a little creepy Web series 'Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog.'
'If You Don't Know Me by Now,' David Brent
Ricky Gervais, the master of the cringe-inducing moment, in all-white attire, billowing gauzy curtains and making love to the camera.
HAHAHAHAHAHAALAMIAO!! That's incredibly funny! Can you remember any that are worth mentioning here?
