Pretty funny stuff from Saturday Night Live this weekend, as they brought on fake Bjork to represent Iceland and share her thoughts on the eruption/disruption with fake Larry King.
Larry King: “Now, let me get this straight. First, Iceland’s economy collapses, and you ruin all the banks in Europe. Now, your volcano erupts, and you ruin all the airports.”
Bjork: “That’s right. We’re a tiny rock that is destroying the world.”
Later…
Larry King: “Now, Bjork, has anything positive come out of this.”
Bjork: “Yes. Iceland is now the world’s number-one exporter of volcanic ash. Previously, our main exports were reindeer bones and giggles.”
We also get an appearance from Sir Richard Branson and lullaby to the volcano from Bjork. Well played, SNL. Almost as good as the time Bjork joined Charles Barkley on Iconoclasts.
