Megan Fox hosted tonight's premiere of the 35th season of Saturday Night Live earlier this evening on NBC (featuring musical guest U2). There were several minor references to the Transformers films throughout tonight's SNL show.
The biggest reference was one of the skits that aired toward the end of the show after the Weekend Update. In the digital shorts skit, Megan Fox's character brings home a date (Andy Samberg) for a movie night. Once their in her apartment, she introduces her date to her roommate "Optimus". Later in the skit, Megan Fox's long time boyfriend, Brian Austin Green, makes a surprise appearance as Bumblebee who has a "brief" (nude?) showdown against Optimus.
Both Optimus and Bumblebee were merely men wearing the respective role playing electronic masks from Hasbro's Transformers Revenge of the Fallen line.
The skit made use of the transforming sound from the live action films as well as the theme song from the first season of the original animated series.
SNL should post this skit on their website later this week in their Digital Shorts section.

I'm watching it and it's good so far.
Of course, I've seen the video of one of the actresses slipping a curse word and her face is priceless.

I saw the slip up.
It was funny.
The TF skit wasn't.
SNL sucks these days.
The only worthwhile thing is the Weekend Update.

That was funny, but i think they could've done way better than that. I mean ROTFL funny --the Natalie Portman gangsta rap was hilarious.

I remembered to watch this part way through and over all it just further solidified my current opinions of Megan. The two skits I watched she was first playing a blond airhead. Then she was playing a hooker. So yeah it was such an amazing display of 'acting' ability... 
I turned off the TV. I followed the link for the TF skit and was pretty much unimpressed. The funniest part was the surprise guest who played the dude wearing the Bumblebee helm. What's most funny is they managed to talk anyone at all to do that skit..

I'm starting to realize how worldly and sexually immoral Megan is. The date skit was lame and the TF skit was stupid. It was a waste of time and it wasn't really related to TF at ALL. Just some guys in a mask showing off their "guns". Waste of comedy. Seriously Megan... Are you that stooped for attention? I thought she had more values than that. Our role models suck these days.

Someone PLEASE tell me the best friend succeeds
THAT would be enough reason for me to sit through another fox movie that did not have giant effin' robots or Simon Pegg in it
