When she randomly kissed his hand he smiled.. It was so innocent and cute!

[@gotmybootyout5793]

I’d like to think that was something she waited decades for

It was so obviously ad libbed and so fan girl! This was a really cute sketch.

[@sheilacortez8070]

The mighty bee as s teen 🐝

[@MeredithHagan]

I think the craziest part of this is that 2013 Bon Jovi is still as good-looking as 1986 Bon Jovi.

[@rodrigodecastro_]

Not that there’s much of a difference, but the skit is from 2007. Edit: According to the video description.

[@bocagoodtimes1460]

Age finally caught up with him in 2020....it’s ok he was good looking for 50 plus years...more than the rest of us lol

[@MommyOfZoeAndLiam]

To be fair those who distinctly remember 1986 Bon Jovi probably need bifocals by now. I am 41 (now in 2020) so if this was from 07 I would have been 28. I graduated highschool in 97 and in 86 I was 7 years old. I did know this 07 Bon Jovi, I believe it was the Sting, Brian Adams, BonJovi collab I Will Love You Always. While I knew the music of BonJovi and I loved Def Leppard my whole life, I had hippy parents so I listened to a lot of records with my dad like Pink Floyd, Sex Pistols, Jimi Hnerix, Janis Joplin, man I loved Joplin, got her on CD now, and my mom was a Bob Dylan girl, get this when Wall Flowers got popular she heard them and was able to pick up that Jacob Dylan was related to Bob just from his VOICE! Anyway, point is anyone who was a teen or older in the 80s who actually listed for original BonJovi probably either couldn't see him well enough on TV or can't see him well enough now on a phone to know if he looks the same lol....

[@TarynToday]

@@MommyOfZoeAndLiam you've got a point I just watched this on my phone with my reading glasses on and I was 16 in '86, it was a great time in music and funny thing this is the first time I ever saw an 80s hair, clothes everything look on YT that was literally just like me and my friends back then. I'm a little afraid to look up what Bon Jovi looks like now especially if I see on my tv and really see, kinda want to hold on to all the happy memories I can we've lost so many 80s singers and actors it's getting sad

[@pamelanowacki4168]

We must be the same age as this was me also. Bon Jovi&Cinderella was my 1st concert in Detroit,Mich. Even in my 30's&40's had a room in my house with all my Bon Jovi memoribilla. I met him twice&he even signed my shoulder&i got it tatooed&have a Bon Jovi tattoo in the middle of my back. Will ❤Bon Jovi forever but really need Ritchie back!!

[@jk6491]

I'm sort of glad this didn't happen to me. I had Axl Rose's poster on my wall, so I imagine it would have ended quite differently. He would probably have given me a ten minute lecture that sounded impressive without making any sense, broken my camera, and taken a swing at me before disappearing for 15 years.

This sketch is so great once you've read Amy Poehler's book 'Yes please'. It represents her life in a very funny way, mixing real stories/facts (such as the bedroom looking like her real one did) with humor. I can only imagine how great it must have been for the real 16 year old Amy to hear this news. Okay I can keep rambling on here, I just really admire her, and it's so amazing to see what she accomplished. For everybody who has not read her book yet, please do. It is amazing and very inspiring.

[@ILLLIKECASTLe]

I so so agree with you!!! Parks and rec is amazing! I love that show so much and Amy did such an amazing job with it.

[@beuxjmusic]

I just finished Yes Please about a week ago. I'm very thankful I came across this sketch AFTER having done so. Very nice sketch that makes me feel nostalgic myself, even though it's her life : )
