Kingston finds himself buying ice cream and snapping a picture of himself together with one of his many beloveds. Basking in the slowly-fading glow of Kingston’s summer hit “Beautiful Girls...
Koenigs and his friend made a cooking show/comedy sketch, accessible from HRTV.org and Youtube.com, outlining his recipe for viewers at home. The directions: smear armpits with chunky peanut butter, rub jelly through hair, and scrub off with slices of bread.
