BSFC #5 Bonus: 2 Live Crew on Donahue
Written By Brooke Suchomel
Kaykay wasn’t lying in Episode 5 about 2 Live Crew’s performance on Donahue. In fact, she may have undersold the hilarity.
We’ve preserved the audience reactions for posterity below:
“Here is 2 Live Crew. Come out here and do your thing!”
2 Live Crew come onto the Donahue stage to do their thing
Their smiles acknowledge the hilarities that are about to ensue
“WELCOOOOOOOME to the FUUUUUUUNK SHOPPPPPPP!”
It's just the Sweet Child o' Mine riff, sweetie. Calm down.
“Put your hands in the air if you like our kind of music”
“All right, now we know what kind of audience we got”
This one is totally into the Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love riff
"There's only one place where we can go / Where the price is right just to see a show"
“It's always popular with the girls and the guys”
“'Cause for all my money, it's the best buy”
“Ten dollars, two hours is the time of the stay / It's more than enough, time to slay”
Fresh Kid Ice is well aware how hilarious this is
“Each room has a bed”
“and also a sink”
“So you can wash your body so it won't stink”
seriously, these guys have never had more fun
“But be careful of the things”
“that you use”
“So you won't get arrested for sex abuse”
“So as you hit the door and the panties drop”
“Whole lot of rockin' and rollin' at the Funk Shoppppp!”
LUTHER: “Now how many of y’all ever been to a hotel, where y’all had sex in the hotel? Put your hands up”
LUTHER: “Now I know a whole lotta y’all out there lyin’”
these people are also lying to Luther
“Please come inside, make yourself at home / I want to [bleep], cause my [bleep]'s on bone"
“You sexy girl behind closed doors”
this guy is 100% in on the joke, he’s great
“You would drink my [bleep] and nothing more”
“Now spread your wings open for the flight / Let me fill you up with something milky and white”
this particular dude seems too comfortable with the lyrics for my liking
blonde Sarah Huckabee Sanders is not amused
“You will sleep like a baby”
“And in your dreams, you'll say I'm crazy / In the Funk Shopppppp!”
LUTHER: “Now how many of y’all have Penthouse magazines in your house? Put your hands in the air”
LUTHER REITERATES: “How many of y’all ever had a Penthouse magazine? Put your hands in the air”
LUTHER: ”Y’all lyin’ again, right?”
I suspect this one's husband raised his hand
“In the Funk Shop, that's where it's at / In the Funk Shop, the place to splak”
“In the Funk Shop, where all the boys go”
“In the Funk Shop, [bleep]in' all the hoes”
I hope to someday enjoy something as much as 2 Live Crew enjoyed this performance. Just look at the sheer delight on their faces
*closing Van Halen riff*
“Thank you for be [bleep]in' at the Funk Shop!“
ugh, not THIS GUY again…
Brenda Dickson is not amused
these two are ahead of their time
