Asked who his favorite female comics were Thursday at a Cannes Film Festival press conference, Jerry Lewis listed Cary Grant and Burt Reynolds. He then added: "I don't have any."

In 1998, Lewis famously said that watching women do comedy "sets me back a bit" and that he has trouble with the notion of would-be mothers as comedians.

Asked Thursday if he had changed his mind at all because of performers like Melissa McCarthy and Sarah Silverman, the 87-year-old Lewis said of women performing broad comedy: "I can't see women doing that. It bothers me."

Her solution? The Kiss Monitor™.

Sarah Silverman made a song with Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am? Sure, why not.

The unlikely pair teamed up for YouTube's Comedy Week to produce this incredible anthem devoted not to Mr. i.am's favored nighttime activity, partying, but instead to Silverman's: "Stay at home, order in, watch a movie and masturbate."

We follow Sarah as she doesn't go out to the club ("Like I've ever been to a club") but does what the vast majority of us do: Take it easy with some Netflix. Except she has a way better beat and production values.
