A "Saturday Night Live" skit based on the University of Oregon Duck football team did not leave Oregonians laughing. Taylor Lautner played the role of a made-up, Ducks backup Quarterback, Phil Pomeroy, who could not smile correctly for the camera.
According to their local news station KATU, the skit didn't tickle a funny bone.
"It wasn't funny regardless," said Duck T.J. Ward. "I'm waiting for the punch line or a joke or something. It was a little too silly for me."
No offense to any Oregonians, but they need to lighten up. Taylor is the perfect example of someone who doesn't take himself so seriously. For goodness sake, he portrayed Mikash, a foreign student who danced like Micheal Jackson, rapped and said he was gay. He then wore a mini skirt, played a girl who was on Team Edward, and kissed Robert Pattinson's picture. C'mon! Silly is funny!

This Taylor Lautner "New Moon" interview is so funny! All the questions are in French, so I didn't know what he was being asked. Taylor made strange and funny faces throughout the entire interview before giving really odd answers. I had to find out what he was being asked, so I translated all the questions for you. Enjoy!
Questions:
- How many times do you shave a week?
- How many times a day do you look in the mirror?

Taylor and Kristen Stewart have a lengthy discussion about Tay's tan:
Here are high quality screen captures of Taylor Lautner and Jenny Slate's Saturday Night Live skit where they battle Team Jacob vs. Team Edward (aka Lab Parnters).
When I watched SNL live I only paid attention to Taylor's performance, of course. But then I watched this skit again to take screen caps for ya'll, and I couldn't stop laughing at Slate!!! Her facial expressions are priceless! She has the biggest variety of stinky faces I have ever seen in one person.

Although Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift were both in New York City the week of Lautner's Saturday Night Live gig, they were not seen together in the big apple.
However, Taylor was spotted arriving at the Nashville, TN airport the following day! Coincidentally it was also Miss Swift's 20th birthday (Dec. 13). *wink*

Taylor Lautner attended a Saturday Night Live after party on December 12, 2009 in New York. He did a great job hosting the show that night!

Taylor Lautner did an amazing job on Saturday Night Live last night. I wasn't sure how funny he would be based on the SNL promos, but I was pleasantly surprised!
A few of his skits made me laugh so hard. He shows off his impressive martial arts moves in his monologue about Taylor Swift, dances, raps, and has bad hair in almost every scene. I guess he wouldn't be as funny if he was too good looking!
Watch all of Taylor's skits below. My faves are the monologue, football taping and the show choir. If I could only pick one, I think the show choir would be my number one pick.
Which Taylor skit is your favorite?
