President Barack Obama disses Hangover III
Other | Wednesday 12th March 2014 | Nathan
Comedian Zach Galifianakis has sat across a legion of celebrities for his hit internet series ‘Between Two Ferns’ but none as powerful and more important as the President of the United States of America.
The 19th episode of ‘Between Two Ferns’, which aired on 11th March, featured a very special guest – US President Barack Obama.
The commander-in-chief immediately expressed his opinion of the comedy series – belittling it. Zach, known for antagonising his guests was not going to make an exception for the most powerful man in the world. The actor replied swiftly by telling Obama to ‘shush’ as the show was about to air. On the contrary, the un-aired footage actually aired!
The gloves came off immediately as the host and special guest exchanged unpleasantries. The comedian took a jab at Barack’s reign in power – citing that his days as the President were numbered. He then added, “It must kind of stink though that you can’t run, you know, run three times.”
Obama countered, “Actually I think it’s a good idea. If I run a third time it would be sort of like doing a third Hangover movie. It didn’t really work out very well did it?”
Ouch.
If looks could kill Obama would be six feet underground right now. The expression ‘Hangover’ trilogy actor Zach Galifianakis directed to the US President was distasteful. It confirmed that Zach was not amused in the slightest.
The 44th US President deepened the stab wound adding that Bradley Cooper carried the ‘Hangover’ movies. There was no coming back for Zach after that.
When the dust settled and the smoke had cleared, Barack Obama reigned supreme. He had defeated the baddy in his own backyard!
Well played Mr President!
