Holy shit!

Mayor Rob Ford has gone Hollywood.

And no doubt he’ll be hobnobbing Sunday with celebrities on the red carpet at the Academy Awards.

“I am going to the Oscars. Its going to be fun,” Ford told the Toronto Sun as he boarded a plane Saturday heading for Los Angeles.

“I am really looking forward to it,” he added.

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Goddamn, now I have a reason to watch the Oscars.

 

[FairyD]

This is going to be the best oscar show ever. Ford more years!

 

[Daria]

ROB FORD DA GAWD

 

[Raxus]

I wonder if he is going to tackle Angelina Jolie.

 

[valkillmore]

So who gets the pre-Oscars Red Carpet interview? You KNOW he'll be fought over if he's there! The guy is a legit fucking international celebrity.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

That's a dumb idea.

But then again, so is everything else Rob Ford has done.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Congratulations to the Academy (and the press) on further enabling someone's alcoholism and drug addiction

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

Shouldn't he be working or is that what Norm Kelly is for?

Did the Academy invite him or is he someone`s guest/invitee?

Seriously.

This is disgusting and why people are treating him like a celebrity is beyond me.

 

[Boogie]

Nothing says "I don't like to be considered an international celebrity" like flying off to attend the Oscars!

 

[Emperor Bohe]

woooooooooow

 

[Phire Phox]

Prob not a good idea. He's probably going to get ripped on a ton.

 

[daizydoesit]

Will there be crack at the after party? If not, he's not going to be a happy camper.

 

[Quick]

Like he's actually busy anyway.

Shouldn't he be working or is that what Norm Kelly is for?

He's essentially mayor in title only at this point.

 

[MichaelFassbender]

Who says crack doesn't make you a winner?

 

[gutter_trash]

maybe they will keep him!

 

[Sapiens]

Apparently, Rob Ford is getting destroyed by Kimmel

For some reason, Gonzo (the muppet) is making fun of him.

 

[rocketskates]

I'll catch this and then it's on to South Park: The Stick of Truth.

 

[The Interrobanger]

Can't wait.

 

[rocketskates]

Its on!

 

[wenis]

I need to become governor or some shit and smoke some crack. I wanna go to the oscars next year!

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

So goes Canada's secret plan to ban him from returning, thus ending their long PR nightmare by trapping him here.

 

[The Lone Courier]

Ford should have taken over the Tonight Show.

My thoughts as well.

=/

 

[rocketskates]

Lol this kid.

 

[Bread]

those tweets got me hyped up for this, i didn't expect it to happen as it was reported on there.

south park can wait, this is must watch tv

 

[Tallshortman]

We don't need anymore crackheads here thanks.

 

[Bread]

oh god this video segment

he looks so uncomfortable

 

[gutter_trash]

I just died during the video segment

 

[Elwood Blues]

He's so red and sweaty.

 

[Quick]

Rob Ford came to his own stoning.

 

[rocketskates]

oh god this video segment

he looks so uncomfortable

He's looked extremely uncomfortable for the majority of this show. Dunno if he really knew what he was getting himself into lol.




Good point Jimmy! What exactly IS Gonzo??

 

[Quick]

Even Gonzo got his shot in.

 

[Dr.Acula]

My God this is rough.

 

[Gonzo The Great]

Good point Jimmy! What exactly IS Gonzo??

I'm an alien, of course. Haven't you ever watched Muppets From Space?

 

[ThirstyFly]

I'm an alien, of course. Haven't you ever watched Muppets From Space?

I hate how that movie ruined all the jokes about what Gonzo is
