Have you ever seen someone and been like "oh my gawdddd...I want to be bffs with themmm!"? Well I bet you have. If you haven't then, you are lying to yourself and to me and that is just mean.
So I have compiled a list of the most awesome people in the world that would be awesome to be best friends with. Maybe one day I will meet them...
1. Nick Kosir (the rapping weatherman)
If you have heard of Nick Kosir, chances are that you only know him as the rapping weatherman. Yes, I said rapping weatherman. Nick raps the weather during FOX 4's morning show "Good Day" in Texas.
So you think that sounds dumb? Well I'm sure you probably sound dumb to Nick Kosir too.
Watching other YouTube videos of Nick, one can find that he is actually the most entertaining weatherman I've ever seen (maybe even better than Al?).
What you don't know about him is that he started as a FM DJ where he won two national awards. Now he raps the weather and has a wife and a kid.
2. George Washington
Of course you want to be friends with George Washington. He was the most bad ass first president of the United States ever. Not to mention he wore wooden teeth and a powdered wig- that's Bad ass with a capital B right there. Unfortunately, good ol' George did not chop down any cherry trees. Who came up with that myth anyway? People cut down cherry trees all the time and don't lie about it. But anyway, the point of the matter is that Washington would be the most loyal, energetic, non-lying best friend around. Kind of like a dog...but better, and with a wig. He could tell you awesome stories about that one time he was awesome in the Revolutionary War. And that time he became president. And that time he crossed the Delaware. And the time he was put on the quarter AND on the dollar bill. You know, the normal stuff. I bet he'd be a good story teller too. Kind of like how grandpa's are good story tellers. So really having George Washington as a best friend would be like having a bad ass dog grandpa with a wig as a best friend.
3. Andy Samberg
Oh Andy
Samberg. What a good guy to have around. Especially if you need to come up with a clever/funny song because your life depends on it. Or if you just want to listen to his jokes. And he can cheer you up by making one of his funny faces. You'd never be sad again.
Andy joined
SNL in 2005 and is a member of the
Lonely Island comedy group. Watch their videos. Do it. But I'm sure you probably already have. So watch them again!
4. Queen Elizabeth II
She gets to wear a crown. And live in multiple castles. You'd want to be friends with her too. We could have lunch in Windsor and afternoon tea in Buckingham. She's also very old (born in 1926) so she has many, many stories. She's known many US presidents and has lived through many wars.
What you might have not realized, is that she is not just the queen of England, but the queen of the rest of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada,
Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Belize, Antigua and Barbuda, and Saint
Kitts and Nevis. However, she doesn't have that much power in these countries, as her role is mainly ceremonial.
She got to grow up as a princess, which really is ever girl's dream. Not to mention that she looks like she would be the cutest, nicest grandmother figure ever.
5. Elliot Tiber
Now, you probably do not know who this man is, unless you have seen the movie/ read the book "Taking Woodstock." The story begins with a
homeless music festival and a need for money. After the festival was kicked out of their original spot, Elliot volunteered his town of
Bethel, NY. He was going to have the festival at his family's motel, but it was too small, so the festival ended up being on a dairy farm. After Woodstock, Elliot went to LA and became an artist and a screen writer. Personally, I think Woodstock would have been awesome to go to and I would love to hear stories of someone who actually worked behind the scenes and who attended it. Sure he's kind of old and creepy looking now, but he'd still be cool.
7. Adam Levine
You probably know Adam as the lead singer in Maroon 5. He writes songs, sings, plays guitar, is funny (at least during concerts), and not to mention pretty darn attractive. He was born in 1979 and lived in LA until he went to school in New York. His original band was called Kara's Flowers. After dropping out of college, another member was added to the band and it was renamed Maroon 5.
Before becoming super famous, Adam worked as a writer's assistant on the show "Judging Amy." He also spent time writing songs about his ex-girlfriend, Jane.
He was in an SNL skit with, ironically, Andy Samberg, my other future best friend.
Adam's ex-girlfriend Jane did not contact him after Maroon 5's first CD, "Songs About Jane," became successful in 2004. It took her a few years, but as of 2007 they were friends again.
So basically, as my best friend, Adam could serenade me with songs he wrote about our friendship and his cool tattoos. What more could one want?
6. James Franco
Really, if I was best friends with James Franco I'd just keep him around because he's nice to look at.
