This is not American Idol

So I was watching Canadian Idol last week.... Yes, I said Canadian Idol. I like the funny audition shows, okay?

Anyway, some foppish dude named Ben Mulroney hosts the show. (Never heard of him before? Yeah, same here.) He fails at it too. Watch.

What a mulron.

Of course, it was probably just a lame attempt at a joke. But it's equally likely that deep down, he desperately wants to be Ryan Seacrest. And can you blame him? Seacrest gets the fans, the fake girlfriends, and even a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. What does Mulroney get? 10 inches of snow in a remote place called Canada--is that even a real country? Also, as lame as the "Seacrest out!" catchphrase is, it sounds a lot less retarded than "Mulroney out!" I bet he cries into his pillow every night asking God why life is so unfair.

Well, life is unfair. So suck it up. That's what Seacrest would do, heh.
