(upbeat pop music)
- Which of these iconic Disney villain tunes
would you want to belt out at your next karaoke night?
Be Prepared, Gaston, Poor Unfortunate Souls,
Hellfire, Mother Knows Best,
or Friends on the Other Side.
Some of these are obscure.
- Very, I don't know half of 'em.
- Mother Knows Best.
- I'd go Poor Unfortunate Souls.
- I'm gonna go Poor Unfortunate Souls too.
- I like Poor Unfortunate Souls.
- I don't know any of these.
- Is Gaston, Be Our Guest?
♪ Be our guest, be our guest. ♪
- Now Gaston, do you know the song
- [Alfre And Chiwetel] From Beauty and the Beast, yeah.
- But is that's the one that's like.
♪ No, ah (vocalizing "Gaston") ♪
- Poor Unfortunate Souls.
It's my favorite. - I was gonna pick that one
Too. - You could still pick it.
- No it's all right.
(Shahadi laughs)
I think Gaston would be fun to do in front.
- Poor unfortunate--
- In front of an audience.
- Yeah, that would be.
- Oh, Friends on the Other Side.
I love it so much.
- You do?
- Yes, that is my favorite song.
- Be Prepared. (laughing)
- What is Hellfire?
♪ Hellfire doo doo doo doo ♪
That song?
♪ You're watching hellfire on the Disney channel ♪
- Question two, pick the grub you
would most like to munch on?
- Okay, I don't want to munch on any grubs.
- Would that be, (Shahadi laughing)
now the shield bug, the ant, dragonfly,
worms, grasshopper, and ladybug.
- Munch on?
- I'm going grasshopper.
- I guess I'm gonna go grasshopper too
because they seem the most like food.
- Yeah.
- Did anyone pick ladybug?
That's seems very--
- You're a sick (beeping) if you
choose to eat ladybug. - Yeah, that's cruel.
- You know, I kind of want to munch on a ladybug.
- I also go for the ladybug.
- I've already tried an ant, so I'll eat that one.
- I'll go with worms.
- Okay.
- Because I have eaten grasshopper before,
so I would munch on the grasshopper.
- It's between the ant and the dragonfly.
- Ants are good, I've had chocolate covered ants before.
- All right, let's do that one.
- I'm gonna say shield bug because it has greens,
and I feel like you are what you eat
and you gotta get your greens.
- Which adjective would your closest friends
use to describe you?
Adventurous, creative, funny,
determined, loyal or intelligent?
- I would say creative.
- Yes, same.
- Because we're the same person.
- I gotta go before you.
- Okay.
- We're gonna say what the same.
- I mean of course you're creative
because you make movies for a living.
- Yeah.
- But I think that I would be creative as well.
- You're definitely creative.
- Because I make jingles off the top of my head sometimes.
- Really?
- [JD] Oh, wow.
- So yeah.
- I'm also creative too because she's my--
because it's what she said - Yeah, no you have to.
You have to choose creative.
- I guess determined.
- I'd like to think funny,
but I know it's not the answer I want.
- I'm gonna say determined.
- I'm gonna say creative.
- I'm not adventurous.
- You're funny though.
- I'm not creative, I'm funny?
- You're so funny.
- I'm going funny.
- [Shahadi] Yeah, go with funny.
- Nice.
- Probably none of these words unfortunately (laughing).
- Definitely not loyal.
- Yeah, did you do,
(Seth and Billy laughing)
Do you have more of a bummer than you would think?
- (laughing) Yeah.
I'm strangely okay without other human interaction.
Is my choice. - Yeah exactly.
I'll go with funny.
- Oh, you're gonna choose funny?
- We are similar, Billy.
- I know, all right, I'm gonna choose funny too.
- Which character from the original film
would you most like to have as
your partner in crime? (Alfre laughing)
Shenzi, Timon, Nala, Pumbaa, Zazu, or Rafiki?
- Well, Shenzi's sitting right next to me,
so I guess I'm gonna choose wisely or I'm gonna get slapped.
(Florence laughing)
- I'll go for Rafiki because I always like good advice.
- All right, fine you didn't pick me,
I'm gonna pick Pumbaa, what do you think about that?
Hurts, doesn't it? (laughing)
- I'd go with Nala.
- Nala, yeah, nice, you know I just love Zazu,
so I'm just gonna go there.
- Timon.
Look at that. - Oh, that's nice of you.
Whereas I'm going with Shenzi.
- Good (laughing)
- Maybe Timon, I feel like he gives really good advice,
but in a bad way, but I feel like
if he used his advice for good,
he would be like a therapist or something.
- I'll go personally with Nala.
Nala is pretty tough. - That's good, yeah.
- And brave and smart.
And a good conscience. - I'm going with Rafiki.
- Who wouldn't want to hang out with Beyonce?
- When someone you love is in trouble.
Oh, wow, happens a lot. (Billy talking over Seth)
- Weirdly I live a life where that happens
on a weekly basis, yeah. (Billy laughing)
Constantly just being like, Seth, it's me.
- Someone I love is in trouble.
- It's really, I'm having a problem.
- When someone you love is in trouble,
you hurry in to help them,
assess the situation first,
call someone else for help,
run away, wait for them to ask you for help,
love? Who? What?
- [Seth And Billy] Bye.
- Love? Who? What? Bye, right? Up top. (laughing)
- I'd assess the situation first.
- Yeah, you're smart.
- I'm not sure.
- It definitely depends on the nature of the trouble.
- Are the cops after them, or--
(Alfre and Chiwetel laughing)
- I think there's some situations
when waiting for them to ask you for help
is probably a good idea, whereas other situations
where hurrying into help. - Is it emotional help?
- Is probably the better idea.
- Let's say their butt's on fire.
I'm gonna hurry in and help them.
- I'm gonna assess the situation first.
- Assess the situation.
- [Shahadi] That's exactly.
- Figure out what's going on
because if you don't know what's going on,
if you call someone to help,
you can't tell them anything.
- We're gonna assess the situation.
- I don't have the luxury.
- [Shahadi] Right.
- Ted, what, I gotta run over very--
(Shahadi laughing)
even if I fall off the cliff I got to run after them.
- I assess the situation first.
Seems like it is the most prudent.
- I think that's the most pragmatic thing to do.
- Yeah, I'm gonna go with that.
- Or run away.
Yeah, exactly. - Or just run away, bye.
- Sorry, I'm in the Lion King, (beeping).
- Which of the following locations
would you most like to go on a vacation?
A beautiful lake, an open range,
a buzzing city, an African safari,
a mountain view, or a babbling brook.
- I'm gonna say a beautiful lake
because I'm a water person.
- I'm gonna say an African safari actually.
- I'll say a buzzing city because I'm about
to go to London and Tokyo as part of the promotion for.
- Ooh.
- So I'm looking forward to it.
- I prefer the city.
- I'm gonna say Africa,
just because it's the only continent I haven't been to.
- Have you gone?
- But really, I'm gonna get there,
and I'm gonna be stressed out,
I'm gonna have allergies and stuff,
I'm probably going babbling brook.
All right, we'll do Africa.
- I've never been to Africa before,
and my mom has been. - Oh, wow.
- But I feel like I would want to go maybe.
- I think you'd like it.
- Maybe we should say safari
because of the Lion King?
- Maybe, but I actually am terrified
to go on a safari and would never want to.
- Oh, wow, all right.
- I actually would, it's the one thing
of all these things I haven't done,
so I'm gonna do the safari. - Oh really?
Okay. - I've been to brooks.
You've been to brooks.
- I've been on a brook.
I've been in a buzzing city.
I am a buzzing city. - You are a buzzing city.
- Beautiful lake, I'm going with that.
- I'm gonna say, just to be different,
I'm gonna say a beautiful lake.
- Do it.
- Which quote from the original film
speaks to you the most?
"Hakuna matata," "remember who you are,"
"I laugh in the face of danger."
Who said that?
"Oh yes, the past can hurt."
(laughing) "I'm surrounded by idiots."
"We are all connected."
- [Shahadi] I feel like--
- I'm surrounded by idiots.
- I'm surrounded by (laughing).
(Jon and JD laughing)
I'm surrounded by idiots is a good one.
- And I'll do we are all connected.
- I'm surrounded by idiots (laughing), not you.
- No, I like we are all connected.
- Excluding all of you. (Florence laughing)
- I really like in the movie
when Beyonce said, "I laugh in the face of danger."
- Yeah, that was great.
- I thought that was a great moment,
and I'm gonna choose that one.
- I'm gonna go with I'm surrounded by idiots.
- Okay, great (laughing).
- I'm surrounded by idiots (laughing).
- I'm gonna go with hakuna matata.
- So we'll just fill in our answer.
- And finally, for no particular reason at all,
pick a Beyonce music video. (person laughing)
Crazy in Love, Partition, Single Ladies Put a Ring on It,
Formation, Drunk in Love, and Run the World Girls.
- Run the World.
- I just listened to Formation and watched the video,
so I'm going with that.
- Run the World.
- Oh, really, I like Formation.
- I really enjoy Formation.
- Yeah, I'm gotta go with that too.
- I'm gonna go Formation.
- Formation, that's easy.
- So I'm gonna go with Crazy in Love.
- I gotta go way back.
I gotta go Crazy in Love.
(upbeat music)
- Who did you get?
- I got Mufasa.
- I got Scar.
- Oh, no.
- How is that possible? (Seth laughing)
Why, because I want to go to a beautiful lake?
- Yes.
- That's the only difference.
You're like Scar's gay, he wants to go to a beautiful lake.
- You chose to hang out with Shenzi also.
That was your one. - Oh, that was it.
- I got Mufasa, I'm a poised king, through and through.
I'm humble, obvs, hardworking,
unafraid to stick up for your loved ones.
You're the absolute coolest, congratulations.
- Mine says, you got Scar.
You're determined to succeed (Seth laughing)
and will let absolutely (Seth snorting)
nothing and no one get in your way.
Also, you're like-- - it's pretty accurate.
Yeah, it got both. - Really badass, that's true.
- Maybe I would say this is accurate for both of us.
Yeah. - Yeah, totally.
(Alfre laughing)
- I can barely see, I can barely look at it.
- Apparently I'm most like Scar.
- I got Mufasa.
- And I'm Simba.
- I got Mufasa.
- I got Nala. (Jon laughing)
- Good job, BuzzFeed.
- Very smart, how about we should switch maybe.
There we go. - Yeah, we should switch.
- [Shahadi] There you go.
- There we go.
- You seem like a more Mufasa type.
- [JD] Yeah, you do.
- Certainly nearer. - Definitely.
- Yes, I feel--
- I mean, you're a father.
- Yes, that's true.
- I got Scar, oh, come on.
- I got Nala.
- What, that was the smartest character.
- People listen when you speak overall
and care about what you have to say,
also, you are Beyonce.
- (laughing) That's not fair.
Mine says, "you have cholera."
(Florence laughing)
Scar, I don't know, he looks diseased.
- Is it true?
- Do I have cholera? Yes.
- Okay.
- Nala's great.
- I agree.
- She's the smartest character in the movie.
- She's the only reason Simba returns.
- But I do have to say,
I'm just not very patient.
- Oh, you're impatient, you seem patient.
You seem so grounded, you have gravitas.
- But it's because of the camera.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- But you feel the room, you exude confidence.
I feel like you could break a wine glass with your mind.
