She may be bitter, but Kathleen Kennedy might be a Sith Lord.

Please tell me that Kennedy's middle name also starts with a 'K' and that would just be perfect.

If she had any sense, she'd have a hearty chuckle and move on and try and pretend it never happened.



You cannot Bully Matt and Trey.
Totally. There's been a couple celebrities I can think of like this, Snookie and Lorde, probably more out there. Snookie wears it as a badge of honor and rightfully so, she was featured on South Park! What could be cooler than that?!

Even the Mormon church takes the right approach to Parker and Stone and by doing so probably see a net benefit.

I always appreciate when a celebrity has a meaningful takeaway from being featured. Russell Crowe comes to mind, he was asked about it in an interview and gave an answer full of self reflection, it was great. South Park seems to have helped him grow as a person.

I'm thinking KK doubles down and becomes a regular on the show.

To be fair Kennedy has not said anything about South Park at all, so far it's just an angry ex-employee ranting on Twitter about her

I think most celebrities have taken it in stride. Cesar Millan was one who absolutely loved it, I believe. The Lorde thing was pretty funny because they only expanded the original joke after Spin Magazine criticized them for it, while Lorde herself seemed to find it very funny from the get-go. I don't think many were dumb enough to challenge them. Streisand (although that was early in the series), Kanye, the Scientology crowd around Cruise ... sure.

The Kathleen Kennedy parody wasn't even that brutal ... there's a ton of celebrities who were ripped a lot harder on SP. I liked the Musk/Zuckerberg references when the handymen got super-rich, but that had even more potential.

Beth Chapman was another who found her portrayal quite funny.

Their portrayal of Paris Hilton was beautifully savage (lazy eye, toy dog tops itself).

How they handled Lucas and Spielberg's Indiana Jones disaster hit the nail on the head of a homerun ball.

Russell Crowe, Bono, Kanye West, Al Gore, Sally Struthers, Cesar Millan, Mel Gibson, Lorde, Phil Collins, Paris Hilton, Snooki ... all good ones.

That. Was. Hilarious.

Albeit a bit obvious for South Park, but hilarious nonetheless.

One of the very rare times in Youtube history that the comments section was a win.
