The promotional clips for Miley Cyrus' hosting gig this weekend on "Saturday Night Live" have been released, and there's finally something we're happy to report about the former "Hannah Montana" star: the girl has a sense of humor about herself!
The clip, which runs a little over one minute, features Miley interacting with "SNL" cast member Kenan Thompson. In one bit Kenan, obviously hinting at Vanessa Bayer's hilarious "The Miley Cyrus Show" sketch and its now-famous catch phrase, prods Miley to find out how she feels about hosting.
After Miley tells the camera she's hosting with musical guests The Strokes, Kenan asks, "So, what do you think, is this cool?" "Yeah, it's cool," a smiling Miley replies. Not willing to give in, Kenan begs the question, "How cool?" and Miley, doing her best Vanessa-inspired impression of herself, gives the thumbs and tells him, "It's pretty cool!" An excited Kenan exclaims, "Yes!" (...and so did we!)
Of course, the promo spot features some other funny moments, including Miley swapping voices with Kenan and doing some very impressive helicopter sounds. The whole thing concludes with Miley doing a brief disappearing act, but then pops back, much to the delight of a worried Kenan (we couldn't help but giggle at his cry, "Nooo, Miley!")
With things having been a bit rocky for Miley (and her family) in the past few weeks, it's nice to see the star having fun and being herself. Her buttoned-up look might even be able to convince a few Miley skeptics to watch this weekend. Which would be...say it with me now...pretty cool!
