At first when we watched this video of Black Eyed Peas’ Will.I.Am forgetting his lyrics, then reading his entire rap break off his BlackBerry, we felt embarrassed for him. But when we watched it again, we realized that the fact he doesn’t even attempt to hide what he’s trying to do is…a little awesome. The man doesn’t even look phased as he scrolls through his rhymes while performing on-stage with Stromae on the French show Taratata. You can tell he’s thinking, “Yup, just dancing with this guy in bright red knee socks while I read directly off this tiny screen. And? I chose to assume you’re staring at me with your mouth open because you love my blazer that much.” The song, “Don’t Stop The Party” is at least a new one; if Will was breaking it down to “My Humps,” “Let’s Get It Started,” or any other classic Peas song, he could have just rhymed the last word of each line and no one would have ever been the wiser.
