Five Famous People You Wouldn't Think Are Funny But Actually Are

1. John Mayer – Mayer isn’t one of those snooty, full of himself celebs like that newcomer loser James Blunt. Actually, if you check out his blog (read this letter he wrote to the Smucker Peanut Butter Company) or go to a show you’ll see he’s pretty down to Earth and dare I say… funny too? He appeared in a Chappelle’s Show sketch a while back and on his VH1 show John Mayer Has a TV Show he went to one of his own concerts before the show, dressed in a bear costume, and heckled his own audience as to why they would see a John Mayer concert. He also checked into the Comedy Cellar the other week for a quick stand-up. After watching those vids you’ve got to admit it, he’s a pretty funny dude.

2. Kevin Spacey – When this creepo isn’t making some of our favorite films (The Usual Suspects and, I don’t know, K-Pax?) he’s usually showing up his awesome impersonation and impressions of other celebs. In one memorable SNL skit Spacey impersonates Christopher Walken trying out for the role of Han Solo in the original Star Wars. It’s comedy gold!







3. George Clooney – He’s been in some of the biggest films of our generation, from the Ocean’s trilogy to Three Kings and Batman and Robin. Remember when his Batman suit had nipples in that movie? That was pretty disturbing. His friends know him as quite the prankster though. One of the funniest ones I read:
George´s friend and his tiny kitten were staying with him for a couple days. One day George saw a “crap “ in the box so he scooped it out and flushed it ( the litterbox was in the bathroom ) and he continued to do this for 3-4 days . so his friend said to him “ my cat has not taken a dump in like 3 days “ so he took the cat to the vet and got it kitty exlax and the cat was going even worse yet he continued to scoop the litter , then one day George had to go to the bathroom so he went in the litter box and left it for the friend to find when he came home . when the friend came home he went into the bathroom to find the prank and said…“Oh my god kitty!” Check out some more pranks

4. Justin Timberlake – When J.T. isn’t being pumped full blast on my iPod he’s probably banging some really hot model or Cameron Diaz. But when he’s not doing that you can usually see him doing something pretty funny. From the now classic SNL Digital Short “Dick in a Box” to letting the world see Janet Jackson’s sweet areola. So even though he started tearing up like a little baby on the first Punk’d, he still can get some laughs.

5. Christopher Meloni – When he’s not totally kicking ass as detective Stabler on Law and Order SVU you can see him in some pretty funny movie roles. Remember Gene the cafeteria chef from “Wet Hot American Summer” and that weird tow truck guy from “Harold & Kumar”? Meloni nailed both those roles. Funny dude.
