Jimmy Fallon paid tribute to the late, great Prince on The Tonight Show Monday with a too ridiculous, totally true story about getting crushed by the Purple One in ping-pong.
Fallon detailed a back-and-forth with the musician's management, during which Prince repeatedly changed his mind about wanting to play ping-pong with the host. While Tonight set up a table just in case, Fallon cracked Prince never even looked at it — instead he delivered an outrageous performance and broke Roots guitarist Kirk Franklin's guitar.
Not long after, however, Prince issued another ping-pong challenge to Fallon,...

After watching this "banned ad" for Grey Poupon, you'll wonder why no one thought to mock the name of the fancy mustard sooner. Obvs posted this commercial for Grey Poupon, and it's got a tagline that the company would never want associated with its product. The video seems innocent enough, but then you get to the wife who spills mustard on her husband's shirt and you will never look at the condiment the same way ever again. Oh, and it's also hilarious. We can see the catchphrase catching on. Sorry 'bout that, Grey Poupon execs. You could say this is ad is basically a giant Poupon your efforts to make your mustard seem classy and elegant. What do you Poupon? We're messy...

What is it about Grey Poupon that makes it the most meme-able mustard ever? Is it the taste? The logo? The name? (It's definitely the name.) The Dijon mustard brand has already seen its iconic ads spoofed in Wayne's World. Now, the sketch-comedy group Obvs has envisioned a different campaign, one where the mustard turns its name into a verb, just like all the cool brands do. As it turns out, that's not the best strategy for Grey Poupon, for reasons that are immediately obvious. See why in the video above, and then re-watch the original (real) Grey Poupon ad below.
