Youtube, Andrew Burton/Getty ImagesAnthony Weiner's sexting antics may not have made him too popular these days, but that doesn't mean he can't get his own musical tribute.
During an appearance on The Tonight Show Tuesday, Kristin Chenoweth took dig at the embattled politician with a song parody that cheekily skewered Weiner while showcasing the pint-size actress' formidable vocal chops. (Hey, the gal's a Tony Award-winning stage vet!)
In a cheeky rendition of the Broadway ditty "Popular"—one of the signature songs from the musical Wicked, in which she starred—Chenoweth lays it on Weiner with a wink and a smile.
"You will be popular, the right kind of popular," sings the 45-year old actress as she offers her expert services in PR spin control. "I'll teach you to zip your fly / You won't be that guy with a camera down his pants."
"I'll teach you what tweets to tweet, something clean and sweet," adds Chenoweth, who, in an ironic twist, had a brief guest stint on CBS' The Good Wife, which was inspired by political sex scandals like Weiner's.
"Become a monk, though they've seen your junk / Now you'll play a different show," she belts out, before zeroing in on the kill: "So let's start 'cause you've got an awfully long way to go / Long? Well…"
Huzzah!
Of course, the actress made sure to let the politician know beforehand that she had a few things to tell him.
"#weiner I have a song of advice for you.....watch the #TonightShow @jayleno TONIGHT," she tweeted earlier in the day before giving props to Wicked's composer-lyricist, Stephen Schwartz.
"@composerstephen thank you for writing Popular. And for 'ok-ing' the Weiner song," she wrote.
Chenoweth isn't the only celeb who's giving Weiner a piece of her mind: Earlier this week, E! News caught up with The Good Wife star Julianna Margulies, who weighed in on both the politician's latest debacle and his wife, Huma Abedin, who has firmly remained by his side.
"It is the gift that just keeps on giving," the Emmy-winning actress said. "It is shocking that in our fifth season, this show is more relevant than ever. It's amazing that my character is a character that women are looking to for [an] answer as to how she feels about it."
