Celebrity sleepovers: treehouses, Hungry Hungry Hippos, and lots of awkwardness

Comedian Mark Malkoff is carving out an unusual career as a professional wacky-stunt-guy, most notably in his recent attempt to get thrown out of the Apple Store through a series of deviant behaviors, including bringing a pet goat inside. He’s also visited every Starbucks in Manhattan in a single day, lived in an Ikea store while his apartment was being fumigated, and lived on an AirTran jet for a month, setting a Guinness World Record in the process; but for all those impressive, weird accomplishments, he still wasn’t able to say he’s played Hungry Hungry Hippos with John Kreese or slept with Camryn Manheim’s Emmy… until now. Malkoff’s latest video for My Damn Channel sees him invading the homes—or rather, cajoling begrudging permission to enter the homes—of an odd assortment of celebrities and spending the night in an effort to save money on hotels during a visit to L.A. It’s funny, awkward, and maintains a loose definition of “celebrity”—iJustine? Kato Kaelin?—but most importantly, it reveals that Justine Bateman has a pretty sweet tree house.
