TMZ Finally Given The Porn Parody Treatment

All good things come, ha, to an end. In pop culture, canonisations are routinely bestowed by the porn industry. Meet the comedic genius that is TMSleaze, starring Ron Jeremy as Harvey Levin. Featuring Speidi, Jessica Simpson/Tony Romo, and Amy Winehouse.

Obviously, you’re about to embark into some mildly NSFW territory, though there’s no actual “action” in these teaser clips. The tributes are, quite frankly, well played, maybe with the exception of Tono Romo’s jersey reading HOMO, but hey, that’s porn for you. I’m not sure if the actors/creative team behind these clips are fully aware of the level of sharp satire they’ve embarked on: the porn industry calling TMZ sleazy is, whatever you think of the porn industry, quite the statement. I await their parody of Gawker Media with baited breath. Do enjoy, and thank you Gawker Video Deity Richard Blakeley for the tip.

In our first video, meet Messica Simpleton and Boney Homo. I think the TMSleaze reporters call them the Texas Poboys. There’s also an allusion to Terrell Owens, who’s not given a name. There’s also fried chicken involved.

In our second video, meet Lamey Swinehouse. She’s drunk and bouncing a ball on the floor and screaming about fish and chips. The paparazzi decides to leave her to her own device, deciding that “this is just sad.” Brilliant.

In our third clip, meet Spender and Hiney, from “that show…that bullshit show,” and as everyone knows “they’ve got a sex tape, or they’re going to put out a sex tape” or something. They ask Spender and Hiney if they can take shots of them, and ‘Spender’ asks them if they’re going to “be on the cover” (get it, they’re not in print?). The photog says “sure,” and they allow the TMSleaze photogs to take pictures of them. After letting them know that two other “characters” have made a sex tape—LC and Bony&mdasg;Spender and Hiney decide that they need to make a sex tape, there and on the spot. Note TMSleaze’s accurate depiction of Spencer Pratt’s creepy flesh-colored beard. Brilliant. Kudos to the porn industry, for showing the rest of us how meta satire is truly executed with brilliant colour.
