Announcer: [ over slideshow of scenes from “Chicago” ] On March 7th, CIA operatives, working in conjunction with Pakistani police, apprehended Al-Quaida mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed. In his Pakistani apartment, authorities found address books, computer hard drives, and one DVD. A DVD of the movie “Chicago”. In fact, Mohammed’s apartment was littered with “Chicago” memorabilia.
[ cut to Salm Hayek ]
Salma Hayek: Hi, I’m Salma Hayek. Can I conclusively say that there is a link between Al-Quaida and the movie “Chicago”? [ hesitant ] No.. I cannot. But I can tell you that the movie “Frida” does not support terrorism.
Announcer: Fight terrorism. Vote “Frida”. Paid for personlaly by Salma Hayek, with a personal check.
Announcer: [ over slideshow of scenes from “Chicago” ] “Chicago” is dazzling. The movie of the year. 15 Golden Globes. “Chicago” is destined for Oscar gold. Or.. is it?
[ cut to Salm Hayek ]
Salma Hayek: Hello, I’m Salma Hayek. The movie “Chicago” is nominated for 13 Academy Awards. But, let’s look at the facts. “Chicago” is only 113 minutes long, while other nominated movies – for example, “Frida” – is 118 minutes long. Whats the matter, “Chicago”? Couldnt you come up with five more minutes? And, here’s what they won’t tell you about “Chicago”: a musical play with the exact same name and story.. has been running on Broadway for years! I call that.. plaigerism. So, this Oscar season, don’t vote for plaigerism; vote for “Frida”.
Announcer: “Chicago”‘s won plenty of stuff already. Vote “Frida”. Submitted for your consideration by Salma Hayek.

President George W. Bush: Thank you. Thank you. Good evening. Last week, I held a press conference to.. [ sighs ] ..discuss with the American people the.. serious matters are facing our country and our world. Some people have claimed that the questions were too soft.. and did not challenge this administration’s position concerning the use of force in Iraq. Because of this.. I’ve decided to hold another press conference, in response to my previous press conference. I have invited the most diverse and respected media outlets to join me tonight.. and I have encouraged them to ask the tough questions. [ reporters wave their arms anxiously, Bush picks one out of the crowd ] Yes.
Kathy Davis: Kathy Davis, Pineapple Growers Trade Association Weekly. As we head into war, is it safe to say that pineapples continue to be safe and delicious?

Kevin Miller: Kevin Miller, online Matchmaker dating services. Do you believe that there is someone out there for everyone, and, if so, is there a match for a man like Saddam Hussein?

Rev. Phillips: Hi. Rev. Phillips, from the Good Shephard church bulletin. Uh.. how has your faith soothed you during this trying time?
President George W. Bush: Thank you for that question, Reverand. Uh.. it is true that when in doubt, I look to the Bible for comfort and inspiration.

Nicole Haggerton: No.. you got it..
President George W. Bush: Now, let’s have some tough questions here. [ points ] Yeah. The chubby guy from “Ain’t It Cool?” News.
Aint it Cool News Guy: Hi, I have a serious question. How kick-ass is that new Matrix trailer? [ laughs ]

President George W. Bush: Well-played. I don’t think there’s anything I can add to that.
Helen Thomas: [ getting rowdy and desperate ] Mr. President!! Mr. President!! We need some straight answers! How can you justify bombing innocent Iraqis for oil! It is just outrageous..! [ chloroform is quickly covered over Helen’s mouth ]
President George W. Bush: I’m sorry, but I only have time for one last question. So, my apologies to.. Cat Fancy Magazine.. to Jumbo Word Search.. the Victoria’s Secret catalogue.. thank you all for taking time out to be here today. Uh.. yes.
Hobo: Uh, yeah.. Hobo Street News. Can I have a dollar?
President George W. Bush: Yes.
Hobo: And I have a follow-up. Can I have another dollar?
President George W. Bush: No. [ clears throat ]
Helen Thomas: Mr. President, you have not dealt with the main issue! You have yet to speak on the fact that half the people in this country do not want this war..! [ suddenly, a poison dart hits Helen’s neck ]
[ cut to Bush surrounded by his Secret Service agents. Secret Service agent over right shoulder hides a bamboo shoot in his jacket and smiles mischieviously. ]
President George W. Bush: Uh.. I couldn’t hear the last part of Helen’s question. But I do think I know what she wanted to say.. and that is, “Live, from New York, it’s Saturday Night!”

Voiceover: You knew their names, you loved their songs.. you watched them on TV.. but “Where Are They Now“?
The year was 1964, and there was only one name on everybody’s list: “The Cherylettes. Just when it seemed like the dance craze fad had run its course, this bubbly trio breathed new life back into it, with the dance known as.. “The Wiggle”.
[ cut to The Cherylettes, in black-and-white, on dance stage ]
The Cherylettes: [ singing ] “Doin’! Doin’ the Wiggle! Doin’! Doin’ the Wiggle! Doin’ doin’ doin’ doin’ Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle Doin’ Wiggle, Doin’ Wiggle, Doin’ Wiggle Doin’ The Wiggle! Hey!”
Voiceover: The pressure was on. Could The Cherylettes come up with another dance hit? At the advice of their managers, they released their next single two months later. Teenagers and critics thought the second song was.. a little rushed.
[ cut to The Cherylettes on “Hullabaloo” ]
The Cherylettes: [ singing ] “Put your heel in your palm Put your leg in the air Hold it while you bounce Then bounce it everywhere Do the Heel-Up-Jerk-Bounce! Do the Heel-Up-Jerk-Bounce!”
Voiceover: Response.. was tepid at best. Immediately, the girls went back into the studio to cut a new track. Two hours later, and $63 over budget, they thought they struck gold with their new dance single.. “Party”.
The Cherylettes: [ singing ] “Walkin’ to a party! Yeah yeah! Put your hands in two fists Yeah yeah! Swing your arms around like a windmill Close your eyes and roam around the room! Close your eyes and roam around the room Don’t forget to swing your arms like a windmill! Don’t forget to swing your arms like a windmill Don’t forget to swing your arms like a windmill!” Don’t forget to-
[ teenagers in the studio attempt to duplicate the dance moves, but end up accidentally punching one another ]
Voiceover: “Party”.. was not a hit. In the summer of 1965, Darcell – the creative force behind the group – had a nervous breakdown.
[ dissolve to Margie and Barbara reminiscing about those crazy days ]
Margie: Now, after “The Wiggle” came out, we bought wild, expensive stuff! I mean, I bought three Frigidaires! I mean, I bought each one of my cousins a house!
Barbara: Mmm. I bought a tiger.
Margie: Child, she bought a tiger!
Barbara: Mmm-hmm.
Margie: We was broke as hell. And I guess, Darcell.. she had snapped under the pressure.
Barbara: Mmm mmm mmm..
Margie: Started writing back checks and shooting at people.
Barbara: Mmm.
Margie: Oh!
Voiceover: The law caught up with Darcell in 1966. She spent a year in the state penitentiary.. for throwing a brick at Dick Clark. After her release in 1967, the girls took one more shot at dance craze mortality. But Darcell just wasn’t the same.
[ The Cherylettes appear on “The Ed Sullivan Show” ]
The Cherylettes: [ singing ] “Find yourselllllf A piece of metal! Then some wooooood For the handle! Elecrical taaaaaape Hold them together! Sharpennnnnn it Into a point, now! You’ve made yourself a shank! I’ll cut you with my shank! Shank, baby, yeah! I’ll cut you with my shank! Hooooo!”
Voiceover: It was a disastrous evening. Darcell tried to stab Ed Sullivan, live, on “The Ed Sullivan Show”. and then The Cherylettes broke up forever.
Today, Darcell Chambers resides in the New Jersey State Penitentiary, where she continues to write music.
[ dissolve to dissolve behind bars of her prison cell ]
Darcell: I told those bitches I needed some time off! But I’ve been doin’ real good since I bin in jail. See, I bin writin’ songs, like.. mmm.. let’s see, I don’t know.. “Happy Birthday”? Or, uh.. “Thriller”.. or, “The Theme to The Greatest American Hero”.. or, how ’bout “The Robot National Anthem”? [ singing ] “Robot! Nally!” [ makes shooting sound effects ]
Voiceover: Margie and Barbara.. left the music business.
[ dissolve to Margie and Barbara reminsicing again ]
Margie: I don’t miss it! I mean, The Cherylettes will always be a part of me. I keep it right here. [ puts hand over heart ] But I don’t miss a thing about it.
Barbara: You know what I miss? The money and the sex!
Margie: [ laughing ] I do miss that, too! But you was always more of a ho than me!
[ they share the laugh ]
Voiceover: Barbara.. has a new career in the fitness industry. She works as an extra in “Sweatin’ To The Oldies” videos with Richard Simmons.

Regis Philbin: That’s incredible! That’s so loud!
