When it was announced back in February that Maya Rudolph would be hosting Saturday Night Live, one of the biggest questions was whether she'd be impersonating Whitney Houston, who'd died that same week.

As you know, a Whitney sketch didn't happen (though we did get that awesome Beyonce/Jay-Z/Blue Ivy bit!).

Still, we wondered whether a Whitney sketch was ever on the table. Maya Rudolph answers that question after the jump!

While we wait with fingers and legs crossed that the uncertainty surrounding Bridesmaids 2 solidifies into box office reality, there's one thing we do know for certain: Kristen Wiig + Maya Rudolph = comedy gold. It's simple maths! That's why the arrival of the hit comedy Friends with Kids on DVD is just what we needed in the Kristen Wiig drought of summer 2012 (and throughout SNL's upcoming Wiig-less season).

Want to have Friends with Kids? Then you're in luck as we're giving away the new DVD in this week's Swag Suite! For a chance to win, simply register with our website (it's free!), then head over to our Swag Suite area to complete your entry. Good luck!

In a world with a 24-hour news cycle and the ability to update followers in 140 characters every few seconds, is there such a thing as "too soon?" Saturday Night Live might test the limits of those archaic words this weekend when one of its most-uproarious veterans, Maya Rudolph, hosts the venerable show. Rumor has it that SNL writers and producers are considering writing a sketch around one of Maya's most well-known celebrity impersonations, Whitney Houston.

Those worried about rumors that a Bridesmaids sequel is moving ahead without Kristen Wiig might find relief in the just-released trailer for Friends With Kids. It's basically the same cast (and same situational rom-com formula) as the 2011 gaydored flick with a few glaring omissions: Melissa McCarthy...and humor, maybe? Watch the first official trailer for the upcoming film starring Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Jon Hamm and Chris O'Dowd, after the jump!

In an interview with a French journalist, the Bridesmaids co-stars go from talking about poop and romance, to farts and homeless people in less than two minutes. NSFW, if you work in a quiet library where you will be judged for LOLs.

Everyone can simmer down now because the inspiration for Christina Aguilera's warbling and confused rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" has been revealed as Maya Rudolph's breathtaking interpretation from SNL in 2006.

We picked Bridesmaids (starring SNL's Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph, and a shirtless John Hamm) as one of our most anticipated movies of 2011. Now, with its long-awaited first trailer, you get to see why we're so excited.

Are you as excited for Bridesmaids as we are after watching the trailer?
