So I by no means suffer from “Bieber Fever,” but when I saw this skit on Saturday Night Live a week or so ago I could not stop laughing. I was suprised by Justin Bieber’s slight acting ability. There’s just something funny about little Canadian Justin Bieber singing about buying his teacher some Spanx! Haha! Tina Fey was hilarious as always, but I thought I’d share this with y’all because it’s just too funny. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

This skit actually creeped me out a bit. I thought it was sick. There are teachers that really look at children in a sexual way and they take it much farther than just fantasizing about the child. During my senior year in high school a scandal broke out when one of the cheerleaders had a sexual relationship with one of the married baseball coaches. Then it turns out that the band director was having a sexual relationship with a student that he had taught since the girl was in the 6th grade. Usually Tina Fey is spot on, but again that particular skit was disturbing to me. (What creeped me out even more was the skit she did with the guy made out of brownie mix…she rips it’s chin off and stuff oozes out!)
Sadly teacher/student relationships happen a lot everywhere, but this wasn’t meant to be taken seriously. I still think it’s funny. I’m sorry that happened at your high school, but I think you should look at the skit for what it is…a joke.
I understand Martine that you think the idea of a teacher student relationship is sick. I also share that same feeling, but I think this skit that Megan has posted is insanely funny. The point of SNL is the comedic aspect and comedy at its best. SNL can get away with comedic skits about serious issues. It might help when watching SNL that you go into with a mindset that this is supposed to be light hearted. I hope that you do not hold a grudge towards SNL over it. Personally I favor the older SNL, when Chris Farley, Chris Kattan, and Jimmy Fallen generation.
