Aziz Ansari's Unexpected Surprise for Anderson

Wednesday, May 02, 2012 5:00AM

"Parks and Recreation" star Aziz Ansari joins Anderson on today's show, and surprises the host with an Anderson look-alike.

Before welcoming Anderson's double, Rene, to the stage, Ansari explained, "I know you're a busy guy, you're holding down like three jobs, so I thought you could use a little help."

Rene, who is from Las Vegas, said people approach him every day to tell him he looks like Anderson. "I take pictures with groups of tourists every single day."

He added, "My nickname on the street is 'Mini Cooper.'"

I enjoy your show but when the Aziz Ansari look alike came out I had to watch the rest of the segment to see just who Aziz Ansari was. After seeing him, the guy looked a little bit like him.

The running joke about Curtis James Jackson III ".50 cent" was funny and you are right he even called himself fitty cent and if you look up fitty cent on line you will find a lot of fitty stuff.

Keep up the good work,I do enjoy your show.
