See Jack Black parody My Chemical Romance in viral SNL sketch

Fresh from his wholesome appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Jack Black has been doing the rounds on U.S. TV and just made a My Chem-inspired cameo on the latest episode of Saturday Night Live.

The actor and Tenacious D frontman appeared in a new viral sketch entitled Goth Kid On Vacation, in which a reggae duo – comprised of Kenan Thompson and Ego Nwodim – perform a song about… well… it says it all in the name, really.

Mid-song, Jack appears to suddenly add an emo flavour to the tune, channelling 2006-era Gerard Way and singing how, ‘When I was a young boy / My parents took me down to Jamaica / For my high school spring break / They said, ‘Come to the pool’ but / I stayed in the room with my graphic novels / So I could masturbate.’ Lovely…

In the video’s YouTube comments, Willis Williams writes of the experience of filming the whole thing: “I was the bassist on stage. I cannot tell you much we were cracking up filming this. We all just KEPT LAUGHING the entire day.”
