Jib-Jab is famous for its year end musical spoofs. The theme for 2009 is scandals.
The video takes on everyone from Tiger Woods to Jon and Kate.
The overriding theme is the foibles of the famous.
Tiger Woods’ wife Elin Nordegren is seen near the end of the video hitting Woods over the head with a golf club. The video producers were probably well into production when that scandal broke on the day after Thanksgiving. It wasn't given as much play as other less-famous scandals.
Disgraced South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford plays a starring role as he is seen chasing his mistress to Argentina.
The octomom Nadya Suleman is shown popping out babies as they form one of the 0’s in 2009.
Former Miss California Carrie Prejean has a starring role for her sex tape.
Bill Clinton is chided for “picking up chicks,” a reference to him helping to free the two journalists held captive in North Korea.
Michael Jackson is shown in a heaven sequence along with other notables who died in 2009.
The music in the video was the 1902 Scott Joplin classic "The Entertainer" which was given new life as the theme for the 1973 Oscar-winning film, The Sting.
