#SNL
Madonna doing ‘I’m not worthy’ to Streisand while sitting next to Meyers is just fantastic. And it was a spontaneous reaction.
One of the all-time greatest SNL moments. The reactions by Myers, Madonna and Roseanne--priceless!
Yeah, because they had no idea she would show up. She was giving a show across the street at Radio City and wanted to give everyone a surprise since 30 Rock is just a short walk from where she was. Even the crowd went nuts. Amazing that they all were able to somewhat stay in character after that.
Agreed, what a classic moment!
Because they were real
Like butta
and today Roseanne is a crazy Trump freak
Madonna actually has good comedic timing. She was just rarely offered the right roles. Barbra's appearance here is legendary. She was so fond of this skit that she had Mike bring the character on tour with her.
If you find an old Will & Grace where Madonna plays a roommate...a natural at comedy, what blows my mind is she was offered the role of Trinity in The Matrix before Carrie Ann Moss.
I've long thought that Madonna cannot let her guard down, is too self conscious in roles to embrace her characters, thus comes off stiff. And, that this is the best acting I've seen her perform, by far.
Madonna was so great on Will and Grace
She was great in Desperately Seeking Susan bc she didn't gaf whatsoever. Then she got worldwide and started taking herself a bit too seriously. I can't even watch Evita. What a joke to upraise that person.
But yeah for a sec she was a cool chic
The funny part is that Roseanne looks better than Madonna now, and was the only actual Jew on that show.
What's funny is Barbara Streisand wasn't scheduled to appear. She just happened to be in her car near the studio, and asked the driver to stop, and made it before the skit was over. Their shocked reaction is genuine. The magic of live TV.
Heidi Fedor great story 😁😁😁
Are you sure? That would be too much coincidence.
yup. true story. she was in the area for something on her end and knew of this skit. awesome right?
7:21 look at Mike's double take that was genuinely a surprise to him
Heidi Fedor 😅😂🤣🤣
I remember watching this live when it was aired in 1992. What at surprise! It was (and remians) priceless.
Completely agree, and if it’s true that Barbra just appeared randomly and that they weren’t expecting it, then that’s even more amazing🤩🤩🤩
P.S. Hi Shane, my name’s Shayne too, you have a cool name dude😉
That last 60 seconds....amazing. Madonna and Roseanne freaking out. I have to watch it again and again. Fuhget about Myers.
It was like butta!
Same! I was 14 and didn’t get the hoopla then. As a 46 year old I now realize what an iconic moment this was. Pure television magic.
I said “no big whoop” so often after this
The improvized ''I can die now'' from Myers is genious!
It’s like buddah.
Madonna is genuinely star struck by Streisand, her reaction is very sweet!
Madonna sucks what is wrong with you clones?
I caught that too. When she starts doing the bowing to royalty thing and then her ongoing reaction, you can tell she’s sincerely excited and my guess is at that phase of her fame Madonna didn’t get starstruck very easily.
It's a "Wayne's World" moment ("We're not worthy!").
Rosanne passes out!
Way back in the 80's when Madonna was shooting to the top, many established stars and singers would diss her and her singing abilities. This was around the time Mick Jagger publicly said she had a voice like Minnie Mouse on helium. Madonna said in an interview she'd met Barbra Streisand and she had been really nice to her, and just said, "go for it kid". At that time she was possibly the only major talent to be supportive of her....
The look on Mike's face when he sees her off stage...classic. one if the best surprise cameos ever
i know right, he just see's her coming in on the side and for a split second was totally stunned
Did he not know she was going to appear?
@@Dreamskater100 No. Lorne invited Barbra to surprise them!
Even better, the REAL Linda Richman (Myers mother-in-law) was also in the audience that night.
I love his double take
I remember this episode, and Barbra's cameo was everything! And on a sidenote, ironically I think this was one of Madonna's best "acting" appearances ever, seemingly comfortable with her comedic delivery and humor in this skit.
True indeed!
still not very good, but probably her best.
You need to watch Who’s That Girl?
Mamala......😅
It's the coolest thing listening to her diss herself.
Love Madonna, but this is the BEST acting she's EVER done!
True ,and I feel bad lol that she dissed herself
@@synia9053 not at all, that's the very heart of satire. Being able to laugh at Yourself.
Joseph Lim True but Madonna was terrific in “Evita”
Desperately Seeking Susan would like a word.
DJ MIXER Relax. It is called “self-deprecating humor”-it is often the funniest.
The best acting Madonna has ever done. One of my favorite moments from SNL.
Have you ever seen the film Evita?
She didn't really act in Evita. It was a long-form music video, so she was perfectly suited for it.
hutch I thought she was great in a league of there own.
She also didn't act in Desperately Seeking Susan, but she was lots of fun in it.
Nintendo Fan She did shes a great actor but her movies arnt box office hits and she should try horror that might actually work for her to get ppl talking about her in movies
Madonna's timing, expressions, body language, reactions to her cast mates, and vocal delivery were all perfect...what a shame Hollywood never effectively tapped into her comedic genius....she could have been a major enduring industry talent.
She is a MAJOR ENDURING INDUSTRY TALENT!
Who’s that girl ❤️❤️❤️
Methinks she wasn’t interested in acting. She did a few and focused on her music instead.
This is a classic. After Barbra appears, Roseanne was outta her mind, shaking Madonna and collapsing back into the couch. A stick of butta. This skit blew everyone's mind!
Roseanne shook her so hard, Madonna started to lose her wig-you can see her using her hand to keep it on.
@@davidthaler7018 - thank you Roseanne. 😘
Madonna did very well I'm suprzed I didn't think she was a ggo actress with movies she's done so far 😅
As a Jew I can tell you...this is not a stereotype lol. Those ladies are fabulous
😂😂😂😂😂
....lottttttta ‘Boca/bedazzler’ pantsuits/tracksuits in my ‘hood...right next to Boca...;)
@BADAZZTHANG whoa there, easy, big fella...
@BADAZZTHANG LMAO
@BADAZZTHANG WE WUZ KANGZ
This is the most natural I have seen Madonna letting her guard down. Even when she is acting she tends to be someone acting upon an act if that makes sense. This skit was hilarious! They all look wonderful!
Same thoughts exactly
Madonna is a great comedic actor and is perfect in this role, bouncing off these two…… especially Mike Myers
In hind sight it's become very apparent that Madonna has always wanted to pretend to be Jewish
You're right. It is like everything she does is an act. For a couple seconds here she actually seems real.
That was a thousand years ago when she was still very much her own self, before she even bought her first record contract by paying the studio. Two things stick to my mind when it happened, then it's her not really being in touch or looking like she's in touch with reality , it's when Madonna does country and also I'm thinking her daughter making an appearance with Terry Mugler on all fours. full circle. Malcolm McLaren Vogue
I should show this to my teenage son... after all these years, I still say "like buttah" and "I'm a little verklempt, talk amongst yourselves" and he has no idea why, lol.
Sounds like my youngest daughter. I say the catch phrases from before she was born or after she was born, but, was a baby or little and she has no idea what I'm talking about, and gets pissed and says who cares what people said in the stone ages! Horrible child :)!
TheresaCarol me too!
Oh man I do too! Mike Meyers brought a whole cool level to Yiddish! Even my mother, God rest hah soul, started saying "I'm verklempt!"
Haha yes share the magic! My Mom and I used to quote this skit all the time. I was around 9 when I watched it with her lol
That's so cute.
As much as I hate to admit it, Madonna was actually really good. It made me verklempt.
"actually"
She was, wasn't she?
Roseanne…. Not so much
Roseanne only knows how to be roseanne
Rick Davis - And did you get shpilkiss in your connectigizoids? (sp)
Seriously, it took me a minute to figure that out. But loved it!
I was in high school when this came out. One of my friends called me and said, "your mom is on SNL!"
I turned on the TV and cried from laughing! This was how we spoke at home and still do!
Nichole Lowther - You are so lucky!
This was my dads mom. She grew up in Brooklyn. My dad was born in Arizona and never had the accent but my grandma sure did. She passed in 2005 but I can still do her accent and all the Yiddish she taught me. 🥺💕
Lol this is my mom too lol
@@HarleyLilo1988 years later, her job let the employees dress up for Halloween. Her team picked an SNL theme. She doesn’t know the show, so I dug through her old sweaters, added some costume jewelry, I put a hairpiece on her (by then she kept it short) and everyone thought that she wasn't wearing a costume! It was that close!
I was in kinder!
One of the best cameo walk ons in history
Agree 100%
Madonna was so good I didn't notice Barbara
One of? This is THE best ever!
Back when SNL was still good and the cameos were exciting
I was waiting for Barbra to add "All this talk about food, I'm getting hungry, girls... You got a bialy & a smear?" That would have been TREMENDOUS!
One of the best moments in SNL history, they so WERE NOT expecting Barbra to appear and their reaction was gold. Great moment. (and she's still like butta)
Suzy Lux Mike Myers was told that she might make an appearance but the others didn't. Barbra decided at the last second that she would go on.
ah, good on Mike for keeping it a secret! :)
Myers was in on it. Madonna and Roseanne were not.
This was not only one of the greatest sketches ever on SNL; it was one of the greatest moments in TV history! I was watching the show live with some friends when it happened, and we all started screaming! Madonna’s reaction is hilarious. We all reacted pretty much the way she did.
Sure you’re a man?
100%
@@DarthWaffle. Sure you're not an *sshole? Oh, too late.
This was one of the best skits. I liked how Madonna dished herself while she playing another character. Mike Myers is also great. It is so great when Barbara shows up.
I know! I actually gasp every time I hear Madonna call herself a kurve; Holy Cow.
This sketch, and the Jim Carey sketch where he pretends to be Jimmy Stewart pretending to be Jim Carey, are two of my favorite bits of meta comedy!
i love that Barbra just happened to show up unannounced! i also love Mike Myers reaction!! PRICELESS!!
I was watching this live at school, in a community room at UCSB. There were 20-30 students watching one 25" tv. (It was the 90's) I remember a few students literally screaming and I think it's because you can tell it was a genuine surprise for the cast. Time flies.
I liked how Madonna was such a good sport to even make fun of herself when a caller suggested that Barbra should do a duet with Madonna.
Madonna knows she is nothing.
@@carleavesceo709 - Oh now, let's not go too far. Madonna's a good sport, and she puts on some great concerts.
Carl Eaves YOU are nothing. Fuck you
I think Madonna did audition for her in the early days ...
@@carleavesceo709 Nasty, nasty, and nasty and so not true...!
Madonna was so good in this, the way she stayed in character. I remember it well!
Still cracking me up in 2021. Mike Myers is so talented. Great way to start the new year!!
I love Mike Myers so much lol
I remember watching this the first time it aired. I was howling with laughter. MaDonna nailed this..and Mike Meyers ..just too funny..I was tearing up ..ot was so funny..loved that Barbara surprised everyone...SNL when it was just a delight to watch..
Me too. I just jumped up outta my seat and laughed so much!!!
This is the best of the best....priceless gems they all are, Madonna Rosanne, Barbra Joan, and Mikey Myers. I love them all!
Who is MaDonna?
madonner
It's neat how Myers and Madonna are still managing to stay in character while simultaneously freaking out for real over Streisand.
retnavybrat he knew
Rosanne Barr is flippin' out!
I Know !! Just Wonderful. 😂
Mike Meyers broke character and totally went “OH MY GOD”. THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is star power.
That wasn’t breaking character. It was totally within character.
After years upon years of watching and rewatching this sketch... for some strange reason... Barbra's walk-on made me tear up! Verklempt af.
😝
Yes
That's so Prince of Tides!
I have to go and die now……
Madonna usually tanks during live skits, but she was awesome here and nailed the accent.
Yes she was awesome in this. Very convincing as a Jewish princess
Yeah, she was good, but, I thought she picked and sucked her teeth too much and moved around too much and did her hand gestures too much. She needed some moderations. She just looked like she was nervous and had a lot of 'ticks'.
@@missweatherorweathernot7870 WRONG ! Madonna was 100% PERFECT and she absolutely NAILED that drop dead funny parody, which was an instant classic !!! It was MEANT to be that far over the top. She wasn't playing Mike Myers character, she was playing another, very well known stereotype that really is that outrageous. Comedy is about reality , exaggerated to make it funny. If the reality is hilarious to begin with, then the parody has to be that much more exaggerated to show the absurdity. Your comment is just as inane as your dumb reply that "Snowbirds are canadians". Duh. Maybe buy a sense of humor. You can pick one up dirt cheap from any street vendor in NYC, because most people already have one, and those who don't, are too unfunny to know it. Stay the hell out of comedy clubs in NYC and LA, or they'll eat you alive. You seriously need an edumacation in drop dead funny parodies and caricatures of stereotypes, so you can stop ignorantly try to pick it apart, just to sound like a smartass and trying to dissect them with the scalpel of ignorance. You're not that smart and you sure as f* ck ain't funny.
She spent a long time in the new York underground scene before she hit the big time
@robert howard I remember that. My point was she was probably around enough New York yentas to absorb their accents and mannerisms to nail that skit
Too many layers of awesome to this; Madonna's curly bob wig, the mother who lives in Scottsdale, the nails, the fabulous hand gestures, Linda Richman's PERFECT roller set bouffant, LOL.
stylecollective don't they say Scarsdale not Scottsdale?
That mother is Roseanne
No it's "Scottsdale, AZ" - because she lives there for her health, most likely some retirement community located where it's warm and dry year-round.
Scottsdale is where retirees with funds go, those with not so much take their RVs/5th Wheels down to Quartzsite, AZ to play shuffleboard.
stylecollective
There reaction was real and natural when Barbara walked out onstage and said hi to everyone.I loved it.
What's really funny is that Mike Myers was so surprised by Barbara's appearance, he started to do his "I am not worthy" from Wayne's world
I also love how you can see him doing a double look when Barbra first comes up lol
It's a good thing Linda didn't hurl, because if she blew chunks, Barbra would catch and it would make her honk, starting a peristaltic spew chain.
I saw that! I love this. I didn't even find out until recently that Barbara was supposed to a surprise. I love their reactions.
I believe Mike Myers Did know that Barbara was going to be there It was Madonna and Roseanne that didn't
I don’t think anybody knew. I’ve read that Barbra was sitting with Lorne Michaels and he said, Why don’t you surprise them?
There is no way in hell they didn’t know.
This is golden gold. Still. Timeless, absolutely timeless.
this is so iconic it could never be recreated...
Too true!! Love Barbra
I grew up on the Sou- sorry, Sowth Shaw of Long Island and could not figure out WHAT WAS THE JOKE?
FACT: "Mike Meyers" is a Jewish lady named Linda who cross dresses as a Canadian and she is at LEAST three of the people on my block alone.
These days it would either be called antisemitic or cultural appropriation. I love it now and forever.
Tru dat! This skit is like buttah!
I did not expect this to be so funny, lol. Madonna actually did pretty damn good. This is awesome. Mike Myers had me cracking up! & when Barbra walked in! Ahhh!
Mike Myers doing a double take when Barbara walked out, priceless
this is absolutely hysterical, wish SNL had this material today
yeah SNL hasn't been funny in years. Except for Weekend Update
You ain't kiddin!!
More material? They have NO material. Haven't watched the show in 15 years. The "highlights" aren't even funny. I can just imagine how bad the rest of the show must be,
They do!
They can’t because everyone is such an offended snowflake these days. No one can laugh anymore at themselves or stereotypes and we’re worse off because of it. So glad I grew up back then when we used to laugh until we cried at snl. Now all the actors would be cancelled and the liberal news channels would be screaming telling everyone to never watch the show again.
Mike Myers may have done the absolute best double-take in the history of double-takes when Babs showed up...brilliant.
That's probably because it was genuine. Barbra's cameo was unscripted. She'd just happened to be in the area and pulled one on Mike Myers and subsequently the viewing audience. It was a big story back in the day.
MMT Sr and it was amazing how he stayed in character!
I know, it was and still is hilarious!
@Lost Vocals Mike Myers did NOT know she was gonna come on. Barbara very pointedly said : "So nobody knew I was gonna do it. Mike Myers knew I might come on........". You do understand the difference between "might come on " and " will come on', right? Exactly what part of " Nobody knew I was gonna do it," did you not understand??? Duh. That is precisely why he WAS TOTALLY SURPRISED and showed it ! The sketch was over at that point , and he very likely had given up thinking she was coming on at all. He's been in awe of her and was obviously totally shocked when she suddenly appeared out of nowhere at the last second. Stop trying to be a smartass, dude, his surprise was very genuine. You're making it sound like it was just an act. He was just as surprised and in shock, as the girls. Please work on your reading comprehension, and maybe buy a new pair of eyes.
Marathonracer No, he knew that she might appear, so it was not a complete surprise.
Next to Evita, this was probably Madonna’s best performance as an actress and LIVE no less, so in character, relaxed, natural, and really funny!
I liked her performance in Evita but not that one speaking part. It felt so unnatural.
The only time I ever found Madonna to be natural at acting was in Who’s That Girl. Now, the character was way over the top but she was supposed to be. Think of her as a Harley Quinn prototype.
Madonna should have worked with that director more often because he was able to get her to be an actress.
she is acting natural here
Too much sucking on her teeth business. She wanted the spotlight and I'm getting attention whore from her. It overshadowed whatever acting she did.
Yeah she's surprisingly good and I'm also a little shocked how bad Barr is though, and I'm even a fan.
give me a break
Wow Roseanne being in a skit and hugging Streisand. This was a different time lol
Wonderful performance from these three talents. Who knew Madonna was such a natural doing comedy no less. This never gets old. HILARIOUS!
Loved it! Madonna acted and talked a bit like Val, in The Nanny.
Sharona from Monk also had the same voice and hair.
Eh.. Me being a NYer, she didn't do as well as I'd have hoped... And I'm as big a Madonna fan as they are Streisand fans! lol SHE'S LIKE BUTTUH!!!!! lol
Except this came out in 1992 over a year before The Nanny premiered in the fall of 1993
@Sam Osler, he didn't say Madonna was copying Val from the Nanny. Just that they sounded alike.
And Mike sounds like Joy Behar
My senior center just added a "coffee talk" activity on the Monday morning calendar. I said coffee talk? I'll show you the original coffee talk! 😂
For those who say Madonna can't act, watch this. She's hilarious in this.
She was great in "A League of Their Own" too. 😊💟
@twilliger123 She was good for her, let's say, in my opinion.
She has her moments but can't direct for shit
@Isla Robinson Evita was FABULOUS. 💐
She was terrible in ALOTO and all her other movies but this SNL skit was good
I still watch this from time to time! What a damn great surprise!!! So good they kept Streisand's appearance a secret. Wish we had more spontaneous moments like this on TV today.
one of the best skits ever. I watched this when it happened and fell off my chair when Babs showed up.
That was so great that she showed up. Barbara is not only a fantastic singer but she's a great person too. :)
All Streisand has to do is walk across a stage and she gets a roaring applause and reception. Amazing, talented woman. She's the absolute best!
Like buttah..😊❤
Barbra Streisand is simply a phenomenal woman...love her
Can we please bring back Linda Richman back!!! We're all verklempt without her!!!!!
Christopher Zavala PLEASE!
Mike Meyers needs to be dragged out of hiding from the failure of The Love Guru.
Mike Myers would never come back to the dumpster fire snl is now
It probably won’t happen, because the media refuses to highlight Jews in any positive light whatsoever.
if that were the case why did he show up on SNL40?
Keep coming back to this; it's absolutely hilarious! Gets better and better over time too!
This is some of the best acting Madonna has done. She is relaxed and in character here. Total fab.
I saw this the night it first aired live. My reaction when Barbra appeared was just like theirs and I wasn't even on the set with them.
Me too! Somewhere I still have it recorded on a VHS tape.
Yeah, I was watching it too, the night it aired. I still get a kick out of Mike Myers PRICELESS expression on his face when Barbra Streisand walks on.
@@missweatherorweathernot7870 Yes! It was priceless!😊
I peed a little bit when Barbra came on. She's like buttuh!!
@@wil48823 me too lol
Mike Myers is GOLD. Madonna does some of her best acting in this scene. Myer’s and Madonna’s response to Streisand’s walk on cameo is fabulous. I remember watching
this live back in ‘92 and I never knew until later that Streisand’s appearance was not scheduled. It’s a SNL legendary moment for sure! I miss these SNL moments.
Yeah, this scene highlights how underrated Madonna is as an actress. She was pretty amazing in this.
It was unexpected to see Madonna blowing Roseanne out of the water in terms of comedy.
Nothing unexpected, Roseanne is awful
Totally fabulous. Madonna was a SCREAM! Who knew she was so funny!
like butter! Madonna actualy looked star struck when Babs walked on !
pat fry Like butter!
That's because she was!
She was! Barbra actually surprised all of them!
That was classic!
I LMAO @ Madonna trying to keep her wig on while Roseanne shook her in excitement!! :-P :-P
Madonna was the most profession cast member during this scene
Madonna looks like Michelle Pfifer in married to the mob.
I thought it was Shera Danese
So hawt
@@brandess13 those Calves!
Kheru Djhuti she looks like buttah

@@neilyaremchuk6798 i read that his Austin Powers success went to his head and has made him impossible to work with.
Was? Did he pass away?
Mike Meyers has crazy talent. The award for coolest cameo... Barbara Streisand
I loved this when it originally aired. Roseanne was the host, so even Madonna doing this sketch was a surprise, because she was not billed, and did nothing else on the show that night. And of course, Barbra's totally unexpected appearance is just amazing.
One of the top ten SNL skits of all time.
Madonna is so beautiful. This is a memorable one! Mike Meyers is awesome as usual.
mikes face when he sees Babs is hilarious
My 999th time viewing this skit & I never tire of it. Talk amongst yourselves. I love it!
The true and spontaneous reactions brings tears to my eyes regardless of how many times I've watched this. Mike, Madonna, Roseanne, and of coworce Bah-bra. Brilliant.
Mike Myers is so insane! I love him..& don’t you just love their look.. great talent...& very large glasses :)
The New Yawk accent!!!, I love it
Its fucking annoying
@@mecaillagladue2587 you think I don’t know people who talk like that? I talk like that! Just less extreme
This is gold, Jerry, I tell ya, GOLD!,😂
Madonna is brilliant in this.
I saw it the night it aired, sitting in my apt alone and screaming out loud when Barbra walked on the stage.
I love this skit. I think this character should have gotten at least a movie or a sitcom.
I read somewhere that they didn't even know she was there. So they were genuinely surprised.
***** Barbra was having dinner nearby and heard they were doing the sketch that night and decided to just do a last minute walk on. Their reactions are real. None of them knew she was going to walk on at the end. Lorne Michaels probably knew but no one else.
Correct. Lorne Michaels knew, his assistant knew, maybe one or two others, but nobody talked. She was literally last minute.
@@cainster I hope she includes this story in her book
I love how Mike Myers and Madonna react when Babs comes in. "We are not worthy1 We are not worthy!" ;-D
As an Italian from Brooklyn I love them!! My family is exactly like them
"THATS ALL THE TIME WE HAVE, I HAVE TO GO AND DIE NOW" - Mike Myers after seeing Barba Streisand haha
HAHA you're right! A mix of Val and Sylvia. Roseanne is Yetta
I really love Madonna in this classic clip. And I never tire of Barbra walking on in that floppy dark hat and sunglasses. Just perfect💝💝💝 And all the hand gestures and the great buffant hair and fluffy blonde wig are hysterical!!
A legitimate reaction to seeing Barbra Streisand in real life.
Melissa Ngai That’s EXACTLY what my Jewish mother/aunts/sisters would say. “I got a Cadillac; now I can die.”
To think I was in my late teens when I watched this LIVE- and now some 25 years later that's EXACTLY how my Mom is now and I am with her!
30 years now
Surprisingly, the three of them had chemistry and were funny together.
Madonna should have tried comedic roles and she probably would have had success in acting.
She did try comedy - did you see Who’s That Girl? It was awful. Desperately Seeking Susan had launched her acting career quite successfully, but then Shanghai Surprise and Who’s That Girl came along and nearly derailed her acting career. It wasn’t that she was a bad comedic actor, but rather that the movies were just terrible. That’s probably why she went for more dramatic roles after that.
@@DaveTexas
And inFunny Girl she definitely played a funny girl lol
@DaveTexas Oh my God, I love who's that girl! It reminds me of my childhood. It was 6 when that movie came out but that soundtrack was my 1st cassettes!
One of my all-time favorite SNL sketches!!!
To think Madonna declined Barbra's invite many years prior into having a duet with her. Then this! Madonna is starstruck and shows Babs lots of respect!
Day Villaruel I red up on that it was actually her label at the time that turned it down she wanted to but they said no
NEVER HAPPENED. Streisand thought about a duet on her Back to Broadway Album in 1993 -- 2 yrs after this, it was going to be madonna or bette midler, but she already was doing 2 duets on the album and opted NOT to do a third. She later recoreded the would be song with Melissa McCarthy in 2016 -- Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better.
@cyber Madonna does whatever she wants......
that never happened. this episode was in 1992. streisand sang pop from 1972 until 1984, when she announced she was 'returning to her roots' and just singing broadway and traditional. Madonna came on the scene in 1984 and became HUGE POP ICON. The music was all dance oriented, not anything streisand in her mid 40s was interested in. In 1993 it was suggested that they sing a duet - anything you can do i can do better - on streisand's back to broadway album, but it was a national enquire rumour. madonna was never asked. also by 1993 madonna was really in a career slump, her reign was over, Celine, Mariah and Houston were more in the spot like for like 2-3 yrs.
Neverending Saga ur obviously a troll. i dont do trolls! next!
That’s part of the magic of this show. Absolutely anybody can show up at any given time.
My God this is addictive. The three are brilliant and Bar makes them explode.
Bar? With that accent?
LMAO!!!! was most DEFINITELY like watching an episode of "The Nanny"! Absolutely perfect when Barbra strolled on to the set!
Mike Myers at 7:20 his reaction is the best.
Side note: he should have guest starred on The Nanny as this character, lol
Madonna did amazing in this!!!
Myers does an amazing jewish New Yorker
chikitabowow I think he based it off his mother in law!
Bilal C
His mother-in-law is Linda Richman.
Based on his mother in law.
Long Guy Land!
I was screaming at the TV when it happened. It was fantastic!
I saw this when it originally aired and I was just as shocked when Miss Streisand came on. This is one of my favorite SNL skits.
Madonna is just amazing!!! Wow!!!
Mike Myers is a comedic genius. And Madonna really stepped. Aside from Evita an A League of Their Own, this was her best performance- and live no less
One of my fav SNL skits, I still quote 'like butta' all the time lol
I remembered seeing this skit when it originally aired. One of the best SNL Skits of all time.
So do I!
This is still a classic, up there with Steve Martin's King Tut and Father Guido's "Find the Pope in the Pizza" sketch.
Mike Meyers got his jewish mother act from his real life jewish mother in law !
He LOOKS like actress,RUTH ROMAN,LOL.
I wonder how many UA-cam viewers knew Rosanne was of Jewish descent. Ironic that as a Jew, SHE was the first comedian to be censored and lynched by the anti-Trump fantaticism that took over the media upon his election.
@@MontoyaMatrix She also is one of the few Hollywood Jews who shows pride in the great nation of Israel.
@@bamabelle7075 And, oddly, only the Democrats, at the moment, are celebrating actual censorship. 1984 should not become The Brave New World. Not if I, myself, have something to say about it.
And her name was Linda Richman.
madonna's best acting performance ever!
Did one catch Madonnas character name Liz Rosenberg was her publicist name at the time?!!! 😊
I just LOVE Madonna doing comedy!!
