Earlier this year, when James Franco hosted SNL, the opening monologue contained a big joke about Franco's resident advisor at Columbia and the guy's a cappella group, The Funk Tones. (That story here.) Well, SNL struck again last night! In a new segment called "We Liked It," Weekend Update anchors Seth and Amy made fun of the final presidential debate, broadcast live from Hofstra University.
SETH: "I like how the candidates always thank the host school even though we all know they have nothing better going on. What else were they going to do at Hofstra last night? Was the a cappella group going to sing?"
Pitch Perfect, out now from Gotham Books, is a behind-the-scenes look at the bizarre, inspiring, and hilarious world of competitive collegiate a cappella.
