It’s one thing to be a guest at the White House, but the guy skated down the halls! Tony Hawk has accomplished more than any other skateboarder ever will. Although this is probably not what you’d consider his ultimate crowning achievement, he should be getting nothing but major props for it.
The Webbys were an absolute blast! It was a dream come true for me, performing for a room full of people who have created most of my favorite places to go on the web: YouTube, Failblog, The Onion, Next New Networks, New York Times, Huffington Post, and of course a little company called Twitter. To add to the excitement, Martha Stewart, Trent Reznor, Jimmy Fallon, Sarah Silverman, Cameron Diaz, Charlie Rose, and Lisa Kudrow were also in the house.
I’d really like to thank everyone at the Webby Awards for making this happen, it was an amazing experience and the show just keeps getting better.
I’m pretty sure this is the first time I’ve been interviewed on the red carpet where the host actually knew who I was without the help of a publicist. Thank goodness for the lovely Shira Lazar, best red carpet host ever.
Seth McFarlane wasn’t able to make it so I got to step in and present his award the only way I know how:
And here’s my performance, thank you Webby Awards!
