Celebrate Julia Child's 100th Bday With Auto-Tune & Guns N' Roses Tributes
Today would have been the 100th birthday of late cooking-on-television pioneer Julia Child, immortalized in the Meryl Streep-starring film Julie & Julia (see it now—it's awesome). But since her death in 2004 prevents her from celebrating this milestone (she'd surely have made a tasty German Chocolate cake), that leaves commemorating the event up to us. Thankfully, PBS and YouTube were more than up for the challenge.
PBS created an Auto-Tune video of Julia Child that finds TV's first foodie 'singing' "bring on the roasted potatoes" while rhythmically pounding dough to the song's beat. It's an awesome clip and you can watch it right here:
