10 Best Movie Star Sesame Street Visits

When stars meet the Street, who’s the bigger muppet?

Mar 15th 2009 By Total Film

9. John Goodman

What he’s teaching: We think it’s a blend of being nice when your friend wants to show you their triangle (surely one for a “don’t try this at home kids” warning) and how great triangles actually are (“I love the way they have three sides and three points. And how they catch that sun in that crazy trianguly way.”

What we actually learnt: Goodman can be both excited and very slightly creepy, especially when he keeps going on about the shapes… “How their little triangle points dance in the moonlight.” He sounds more like a serial killer than a good friend. And stripes aren’t always slimming.

  The sexual tension between Marisa Tomei and Big Bird is palpable! Hilarity!

  I know there will be a lot of people arguing about what you missed, but how could you miss the entire episode with R2-D2 and C3PO? That was a long time ago, but it's still the movie star cameo by which I measure all others.

  Obviously Richard Pryor DID care about C because it's pretty aparent that he was all Coked up atr the time. Check out the eyes and body movements. I'd say he was probable halfway through his 2nd gram when he filmed this gem.

  Funny that DeNiro's guest spot on SS is better than his last 5 movies.

  I know she's not as famous as these other people, but I just love it when Feist appeared on Sesame Street. (She's a Canadian pop musician.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fciD_II7NI She's so damn cute.

  She's not as well know, but Feist (Canadian pop star) was on Sesame Street singing her "1, 2, 3, 4" song. Soooo cute.
