I love the Key of Awesome on Youtube and IMO they make some of the best parody videos. This is their latest one, and not their best by far, but considering the original, not really surprised.
Original
Katy Perry - E.T. ft. Kanye West
By far the worst music video I’ve seen all year. Katy was semi-ok, but Kanye (big surprise) sucks balls. Total mish-mash uber crap.

Katy Perry - E.T. ft. Kanye West PARODY! Key Of Awesome #41!
Meh! Bit crap, but considering the original…
It was actually this parody that got me thinking about a thread.
Original
Katy Perry - Firework
Feel good sort of video, and I can see the appeal for depressed Emo teens.

Parody
Katy Perry Firework Parody - The Key of Awesome #31!
This one had me rolling with laughter and beats the pants off the original IMO.
I love musical parodies. Great idea for a thread.
Shakira’s Whenever, Wherever by Mad TV
Original:
Parody:
Good God!! I weep for the future if Bieber and Rebecca Black is all that’s left…
First, I thought you got the two vids mixed up, and I mistakenly thought the original was the parody. What utter gobshite. Actually, words fail me. I don’t even want to go into a second or a third point.
Bismarck runs away in absolute HORROR!
The Shakira parody was pretty funny. And true. I never hear a word she blathers on about and all her crap sounds the same. I also realised that she seems to do the exact same dance moves in all her videos, too. Then again, I’m just watching her ass.
Original
Lady Gaga - Telephone ft. Beyoncé
What utter shite.

Parody
Lady Gaga Telephone Parody (ft Beyonce)
Way better than the original IMO, and Lauren is hotter than Lady Gaga.
Edit: I notice that Rebecca Black video has 165,717,414 views! WTF??? Fortunately, It also has 3,187,832 dislikes. But how the hell did it still manage 450,448 likes??? I see they’ve also disabled the comments. I was going to have a look what other people had written there, but it seems it must have been a shit storm. :roflmao:

Ok, this isn’t a parody, but it had me laughing my ass off!
Christina Aguilera’s Beautiful:
The spoof. Probably
NSFW
for office folk.
Here’s Weird Al doin’ palindromes. I guess the original is so famous that it’s not necessary.

:roflmao: The Rebecca Black thing is a pretty huge shit storm yea XD It pretty much redefined the word “Friday” for this generation…
The analysis is gold XD
This guy’s reaction is pretty funny too:
Not the best parody, but I do approve of making fun of James Blunt.
Good parody. 
Here’s another Shakira parody for your viewing pleasure. Personally, I just like to watch her shake her well toned Colombian ass. :lick:
Original
Shakira - She Wolf
vs
Parody
Shakira- She Wolf SPOOF
There was another really good one, but I can’t seem to find it. Bummer.
No original with this one, as it seems Weird Al is parodying just about everything Lady Gaga has done so far. Although, I guess he’s loosely parodying Born This Way, also.
Original
Lady Gaga - Born This Way

Parody
“Weird Al” Yankovic - Perform This Way

Excellent find, Icon. I like that version.
