- Ladies and gentlemen, SW1.
We're very close to signing Paula Abdul.
It would be quite a coup.
Oh, this is it, homey.
This is the green room.
Is Madonna down here somewhere? I'm Madonna's manager.
She's on stage.
Can I help you? The man himself.
Look here, homey.
I'm Clavell.
Now I know Madonna must have mentioned me because we go way back.
My cousin Boudreau delivered some flowers to her guesthouse one time last year.
Now look here.
I heard Madonna's been in town for a week.
.
.
and she hasn't called me, you know? - Well, Madonna's very busy.
- Say what? Well, we all know how that can be.
I'm Howard Tipps III.
I manage a group called Satern.
That's with an "E.
" S-A-T-E-R-N.
Now I used to manage a group called Stratus.
Had to fire 10 horns, but we got nine left.
But here's the kicker.
We hired a brand-new bass player.
.
.
Polynesian cat from Detroit.
Funky as he wanna be.
Let me give you one of our cards.
You know, I'm fresh out.
Howard.
[Chuckling.]
Bam! All right now.
Check this out.
Don't pay any attention to the drapes and fixtures, all right? My number's here on the back, all right? I'm stayin' with Moms.
Don't call after 11:00 p.
m.
Not that you couldn't.
.
.
but it's a respect type of thing, all right? That's great.
Uh, if you'll excuse me, I'm supposed to meet Tina Turner upstairs.
Is Lil T in town, 'cause she hasn't called me, you know? Ike hasn't called either, but that's another story, another life.
- Stop it! [Chuckling.]
- Great.
Uh, see you later.
When my hair gets straighter.
[Laughing.]
Hello, Sunshine.
You know, I didn't know angels could fly so low.
Clavey, give me a shot of insulin, 'cause I'm about to go into sugar shock.
Girl, you are the sweetest thing.
Howard Tipps III.
That's spelled three-R-D.
And I'm Clavell, that's with a "C.
" Let me give you one of my calling cards.
You know, I'm fresh out.
Howard.
[Laughing.]
Bam! All right, now, check this out.
Pay no attention to that sign language stuff on the front, all right? 'Cause that's not what we're all about, okay? But, look here, not that we ain't down with the deaf.
Get it? Now, this is B.
D.
's beeper number, all right? You can call me anytime.
I don't think my husband would approve.
Bam! In reverse! [Laughing.]
Not that we're cheap or anything like that.
But it's about that whole big recycling thing, you know? Excuse me.
- Salmon! - Cakes.
Ahh! Excuse me, are you in this agent business? - Actually, I'm a film producer.
- Right.
Ain't that a blip? 'Scuse me, but we are too.

But here's the kicker.
You remember them little sea monkeys? I'm gonna bring 'em back, homey, only this time I'm puttin' little cowboy hats on 'em.
- What does that have to do with producing movies? - You don't get it, huh? We take the profits from the sea monkeys and dump 'em into our movie.
Now, look here.
Already shot the trailer.
[Both.]
Bam! Calm yourself.
This is on camcorder, but this sucker really cooks.
Now, look here.

But dig it, you put your ducats down, call it anything you want! 'Scuse me, baby.
I'm sorry.
Oh, look here, this is a problem.
The lens cap was on.

What do you say? Oh, you-you speechless? Well, let me give you the kicker.
Look here.

Now you know what that spells.
.
.

- Well, his loss, our gain.
- Dig that.
- Those are the guys.

- Oh, is the Sister in town, 'cause she hasn't called me! Look here.
You're probably here to move my Torino.
Now this key is for my crib in El Segundo.
It's in foreclosure, but that ain't nothin' but a business deal.

[Man Singing.]
[Piano.]
Children, the first act was simply wonderful, wonderful.
Just be sure to speak clearly, okay? And Edna Louise? Edna Louise, you come away from that fire alarm for the fifth time today! - Mrs.
Keegan, I cannot possibly play the sheep! - Why not? - Because I have an ocasa calack adilelaaaa phobia.
- Ooh! What's that? It's a fear of wearing a stupid old, smelly sheep costume.
.
.
when you really should have been a princess.
Okay, well, if you're not feeling well, I guess we'll just have to call your mother then.
Oh, you know something.
It's amazing! I'm cured! [Laughing.]
Parnell, there'll be no more spitting from you.
I'm not spitting! I happen to have a severe alignment problem.
.
.
that makes it difficult for me to contain my saliva.
Yeah! In other words, you've got Bucky Beaver bite! [Chittering.]
I do not, Edna! Edna Louise, you stop it! - Okay, mean old witch.
- What did you say? I said, " Whatever you wish, Your Royal Highness.
" Children, we have five more minutes, okay, so if you have to go, go now.
- Go where? - To the bathroom.
Made you look, made you stare, made you eat your underwear.
Oh, you shut up, Edna Louise.
Hey, you know what, Tammy? I'll gonna do you this big favor, see.
I'll let you be the beautiful sheep and I'll just be the dumb old princess.
- Go away evil, ugly Edna.
I don't wanna be a stupid sheep.
- Oh, yeah? - Well, I know a secret about you.
- No, you don't! - Yes, I do! - No, you don't! Yes, I do! Infinity! You're adopted! I am not! - Yes, you are! - No, I'm not.
! Yes, you are! I saw your picture on.
.
.
America's Most Adopted.
And, um, and if you go out there, the whole audience will recognize you.
.
.
and, uh, see, if you're the sheep then they won't see you.
You shut up, Edna Louise! That's not true! Hey, don't take it so hard.
- Ha ha ha, Edna.
- You.
- I told you.
- [Together.]
Nobody wants to.
.
.
You better stop.
.
.
You're never gonna.
.
.
Parnell, how many times have I told you that's impolite.
She was the one.
And you, miss, you better learn how to behave yourself.
- Whatever you say, pruneface.
- What did you say? I said, " Oh, wow, I love the human race!" Children! We have about five more minutes.
We're getting ready to start the show right now.
Please come in.
[Piano.]
Baa! Baa! [Mouths Words.]
I am the beautiful princess.
.
.
and.
.
.
and I'm adopted! Aha! You evil witch.
.
.
your plan has been foiled! And I, the true princess of the kingdom.
.
.
must come here to claim my love.
.
.
Farmer Brown.
.
.
played by Parnell.
Hey, uh, Parnell, you're on.
Way to go, Barfasaurus! - Oh, my true love.
.
.
- You're wreckin' the whole production.
Parnell, just say your lines.
I am a farmer.
.
.
and I have come to-to, uh.
.
.
- I've traveled very far.
- I've traveled very far, 'cause.
.
.
Now I must kiss the beautiful princess, Edna Louise.
Now I must kiss the beautiful prin.
.
.
Hey, I'm not supposed to say that.
- [Laughing.]
- Yuck! What'd you do that for, Edna-Pedna-big-fat-Nedna? 'Cause I'm in love with you! That's the grossest, most vomit-like thing that's ever happened.
You are a vomitore.
Yuck! I kissed a sheep! But, alas! I am not a sheep.
I am a princess in sheep's clothing.
It's a miracle! They all lived.
.
.
They all lived happily ever after.
- The end! - Edna Louise! Thank you.
Edna Louise, you come away from that fire alarm! [Alarm Ringing.]
- [Classical.]
- [Announcer.]
It's time for Buffed, Beautiful and Bitchin'.
.
.
the at-home workoutwith Vera de Milo.
[Husky Voice.]
Hi, I'm Vera de Milo.
And thanks for tuning in.
You know, before I learned how to exercise properly.
.
.
I was a poor excuse for a woman.
Just look at those unsightly lumps of lard protruding from my sternum.
I was so weak and frail back then.
I couldn't even tear a telephone book in half.
But I made that change and you can too.
So, let's get busy burning off those bothersome bazooms.
Girls, are you ready? [All.]
All righty.
- [Dance.]
- Let's start with a stretch.
.
.
and down.
Okay, now you try.
See how those big breasts just weigh them down? I'm tellin' ya, you can't float 'til you get rid of those sinkers.
And now the shoulders.
Come on, girls.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Uh-uh, that's right.
Now, this one.
Just pull it and pull it.
Really pull it.
Really.
.
.
[Bones Cracking.]
[Yelling.]
Oh, wow! That's gonna be sore in the morning, but it hurts so good.
And you know what they say.
.
.
"No pain, no gain.
" Now, before attempting any serious lifting.
.
.
I can't stress enough the importance of eating a healthy breakfast.
Of course, I prefer mine in concentrated form.
[Whinnying.]
[Nickers.]
Another advantage of my at-home workout.
.
.
is that there's no need for investing in costly weight sets.
With just a little imagination.
.
.
a few hefty household appliances will do just as well.
Deidre, the secret to a strong, flat championship chest.
.
.
is breast bombardment with maximum weight.
Are you ready? - All righty! - [Screaming, Groaning.]
That's the spirit! Show those mammaries no mercy! Hey, kids, it's time for Vera's vanity table.
You know, some women spend a lot of money on lipsticks and glosses.
.
.
to make their lips look fuller.
I say you can get the same effect naturally.
.
.
with a nice, hot curling iron.
- Watch.
- [Sizzling.]
Of course, it helps to have a high pain threshold.
But believe me, when these babies start to blister, look out Michelle Pfeiffer! Till next time.
.
.
toodle-oo.
[Rap.]
