Shatner Reads Levi Johnston's Tweets (Video)

UPDATE: Shatner appears on Thursday's Tonight Show to read Johnston's REAL quotes.

The tweets attributed to Johnston on Wednesday were "counterfeit."

_______________

In July, William Shatner was on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien reciting Sarah Palin's poetic writings on Twitter.

Shatner was accompanied by a bass and bongos, transforming Palin's tweets into Beat Poetry.

On Wednesday's Tonight Show, Shatner returned to give a dramatic reading of what Levi Johnston, the father of Sarah Palin's grandson, has written on Twitter. They were his actual tweets. They weren't altered. They were read by Shatner completely verbatim.

Set to the beat of the bass and bongos, Shatner recited the poetry of Johnston. He was able to do it without cracking a smile.

WILLIAM SHATNER: 'Maybe I'm a genius and not even know it.'

'Maybe I don't exist and it only seems like I do.'

'Maybe this is a parallel universe where I don't.'

'Anybody know where I can get some good weed?'

'I feel like I'm in a rap video every time I come here.'

'What's the deal with the taxi drivers not speaking English? Is it a law against it?'

'Is it true that fat kids never get kidnapped?'

'You know you're a celebrity when strangers want to see your penis.'

'LMAO'

That is deep.

Video.
