Billy Eichner Interviews Pink Up In The Air

I'm a big fan of Billy Eichner and his show BILLY ON THE STREET on Fuse. Now, he's branching out of a bit from his man-on-the-street schtick to do an interview with the fabulous Pink. But since it's Billy, this is no ordinary celebrity sit-down. In fact, the entire interview takes place about 40 feet off the ground as they dangle from harnesses, as Pink likes to do lately. 

Billy consistently cracks Pink up with his odd questions and off-the-wall comments (Kelly Clarkson!). Truly funny stuff--hope to see more of these crazily honest style of interrogations on his show. Or Conan, where he is now a semi-regular as well. 

OSCARS SPECIAL! Billy Eichner Asks New Yorkers What Movie Is In Them

This year, the Oscars have a theme...."Celebrate the Movies in All of Us".  God knows what that means.  Fortunately, the Oscars actually seem to have a sense of humor about their own theming as they asked Billy Eichner to take to the streets of New York and, in his own unique way, try to find out what movies are "in" New Yorkers. The results are hilarious as usual.  And make sure you stay til the last guy at the end....amazing!!!

Billy Eichner Kills It On CONAN With Super Bowl "Interviews"

Billy Eichner, one of my favorite NYC comedians, killed it on CONAN last night as a special correspondent reporting from the Super Bowl.  He basically ran around the parking lot at Lucas Oil Field, asking hardcore football fans if they were excited about seeing Madonna.  OMG--too funny!

Billy's trademark style of being too loud and too enthusiastic worked brilliantly in the Super Bowl setting.  And his insane excitement about Madonna gets some truly incredulous looks from the diehard football fans. Even better is when he gets on the football field at the end of the game and starts asking Giants players who have just won the Super Bowl what they thought of Madonna's halftime show.

In case you hadn't heard, Billy now has his own show on the Fuse network where he runs around New York City asking people insane questions and giving them money if he approves of their answers. Definitely worth watching!

Billy Eichner Has A New Show On Fuse TV

NYC comedian and on-the-street interviewer Billy Eichner has a new show coming to Fuse TV!   He's doing a game show where he asks folks on the street pop trivia questions for money.  But to win big in  the final round he asks a question about whether you share his taste in pop culture (i.e. "What's the best Christmas movie of all time?" You'll be surprised by the answer).

Anyway, I've posted a few of Billy's videos and spoofs here before and I just think his stuff is hysterical.  I'm so glad to see his uniquely crazy brand of humor will now have a regular outlet. The trailer for the show is below and I LOL'd more than once.  Make sure you watch til the end for some insight into Nicole Kidman's career.  Only in New York, kids...

Billy Eichner Takes To The Streets For Oscar

Billy Eichner, who earlier this year did a great video parody song "Forest Hills State of Mind", is back with another video.  This one is more like his previous man on the street ambush "interviews" which are hysterical. The topic is the upcoming Oscars and the big question...Meryl vs. Sandra.  He also finds someone who, believe it or not, just doesn't know who Judi Dench is.  


If you're looking to make further sport of all things Oscar, check out his show this weekend at Joe's Pub, Saturday at 11:30pm.  I can guarantee that it will be a lot funnier than the Oscars....even with Alec and Steve.    

Forest Hills: The Stuff Jewish Dreams Are Made Of

Billy Eichner is one of my favorite downtown, gay male comedians. How's that for specific! Anyway, he has a new YouTube video up that is a hilarious rewrite of the Jay-Z song "Empire State of Mind" all about growing up Jewish in Forest Hills.  With Rachel Dratch guesting as his Alicia and an amazing cameo of Billy as a baby, I guarantee you will get your laugh on.  And you don't have to be Jewish or know what Forest Hills to enjoy it.  But as Gilda Radner once said, "it wouldn't hurt!"
