It's no secret that I'm a big fan of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, so you know I was pysched to watch him play host on SNL this weekend. And boy, did the guy come prepared. He kicked things off with a ridiculously impressive singing-and-dancing performance of "Make 'Em Laugh" from Singin' in the Rain, but my favorite skit of the night was "The Mellow Show." Hosted by Andy Samberg as Jack Johnson and featuring Bill Hader as Dave Matthews, the guys poked fun at some of the music industry's most notoriously laid-back guitar strummers.
JGL fit right in as Jason Mraz, complete with fedora. Check out the video below for even more of Gordon-Levitt's singing skills, and be sure to keep watching for a cameo by Dave Matthews himself! To see it, just read more.

I loved this one too! It and the "Say Anything" spoof at the end were my favorites. I'm a huge Dave Matthews fan (actually my profile pic was taken at one of their shows) so I really loved seeing him make fun of himself. His Ozzy was pretty much spot-on.
1Seeing that opening monologue made me love him.
2I really hope they let him host again. It's always great to have a host with a lot of energy.
3Great episode. I absolutely adore JGL too, and I was really pleased with the job he did hosting. My favorite sketch was The Mellow Show too. Hemp necklaces. Oh, and What's Up With That was awesome too. Cargo Shorts.
4I NEVER stay up for SNL and I only did because I am a big DMB fan as well and this was by far my favorite sketch!
5Hysterical! I love the mellow show skit. Vegan Cookies.
6I luv JGL, but even he could not make SNL any less awful; however, this skit was hilarious!!!!!!!! Thank God for DVR; I watched this part a couple times and thanfully fast-forwarded through the rest of the crap. JGL was really good, too!
7That went down like a frosty horchata...
JG Levitt's bare feet are priceless in the "mellow" sketch.
