Greetings. This is Brittani’s Video Party, where I bring some of the “best” videos from all over my internet together so we can clap, cry or deconstruct. Have you ever gotten to a video and it already has 33 million views and you wonder where the heck have you been? Well I’m here to help you so that you see it when it only has 32 million views. Aim low, world. Aim low.

In case you’d forgotten about Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move campaign, she’s been making some high profile appearances to remind you. If the Oscars didn’t give you enough of her power bang action, her Evolution of Mom Dance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon will top you off. Sidenote: I like Jimmy Fallon. I think there’s something about him that makes it obvious that for him the joke isn’t that he’s dressed as a woman. No part of the joke is about a “guy” dressed being dressed as a “girl.” It’s him dressed in character and that character just happens to be a mom. Just proof that it is in fact possible for men to make jokes about women that aren’t inherently disrespectful.
The viral video that you’ve probably seen by now but wouldn’t mind watching again. I bring you… Burning My Hair Off.
Surprisingly, that’s as sad as video party gets this week. I couldn’t have you finish your week without any sort of emotional provocation though so here is Jeremy Lin being charming and inspirational. The Last Pick is a video about helping others but also a sly eff you to his haters.
I’m going to go ahead and call it. A Lena Dunham impression is the new Zooey Deschanel impression. Feast your eyes on Lena Dunham auditioning for Zero Dark Thirty.
In this video we discovered the only people that the only people that care less about American football than Autostraddle’s editorial staff are British teenagers.
If you have a video you think everyone should see, tweet it to @bishilarious for consideration. And of course feel free to post your favorite videos from the week below.
