NBC isn’t as entertaining as this video of Ben Silverman warbling the blues in a locker room. It’s Ben at his fratboy best (watch the full clip here) from a charity event that Silverman attended with Rob Morrow and Fisher Stevens at the Aspen Youth Experience Celeb Ski 2008. Not sure why it’s making the email rounds now…

Ben Silverman as Sinatra! It’s so obvious!
Wonder why the town is convinced NBC is retarded…..
Oh my gosh… he needs to be flogged. HAHA
Angela Bromstad should show this to NBC higher ups haha!!
what the hell? these are the gatekeepers of hollywood? for a while there i was nervous about them but…….
Hes an alumni of WMA, so of course this is a embarrassment – what a tool – and that explains Knight Rider too
What a boondoggle of douchebaggery. The fact that all that back-slapping and time wasting ‘benefits’ some kids is so incidental.
It felt like I was watching one of the other umptillion YouTube videos posted by middle-schoolers.
Would some one please invite Silverman to a benefit for terminal cancer patients, Darfur or burn victims. Can’t wait to see what kind of hilarious riffs he would freestyle.
Actually, that might make a great new series to replace “Scrubs”. I call dibs.
ben silverman is a stud!
Wow — are you kidding me?
“Crush crush crush!” The douchebags!
Wow. Is Rob the really short guy? Did Fisher Stevens really once romance Michelle? And is the gooner crooner in charge of NBC? If so, in what capacity?
You’d think that the video would be better. But what should I expect from Ben Silverman? Keep Chuck Alive!!
It’s a good thing NBC has been #1 for the last few years or this would be really embarassing. :P
Oh. My. God.
Jews in the hood, yo’!
See kids, this is why drugs are bad for you. Just say NO!
ummm…. their collective best work in years.
I have no problem with Ben Silverman having fun, or even videotaping it and having it being posted on the web. We are living in an age where, more than ever, we are starting to see business leaders as ordinary people, doing ordinary things.
However, when inside and outside the industry, you are seen as not the most competent leader? Then a video like this does not necessarily help to repair that image.
This doesn’t hurt, but, it doesn’t help, if that makes sense.
This pilot is a go! We’ll strip it 5 nights a week at 9 o’clock!
Silverman is a total tool, but he does sorta looks hot in a towel. Still, the subtext of this video clip is both embarrassing & troubling: THIS moron…doing a cringe-worthy, faux-white-boy-whack-blues riff and mugging for the camera in some palatial country club men’s spa lockerooom…reeks of the worst kind of arrogance, ego, and sense of entitlement that defines typical Hollywood behavior. Falling upward…again.
That company has fired so many good people because of “the economy” yet people like that arrogant, egotistical druggie continue to suck the marrow out of the company and make a mockery of it. Only in “Hollywood” would this be tolerated.
It would be laughable if it was not so sad to GE shareholders like myself.
Silverman, Zuckerman, and Immelt must go.
Behold…the biggest loser!
Or not.
Didn’t watch it, don’t want to have to invest in brain bleach, thanks.
BTW I hope Dick Wolf soaks NBC for big $$$ once again.
Ben is so stoned.
How can GE have a Chairman of a division be this stupid? incompetent? Moronic? Pick your choice of words. It’s one thing that this guy cannot pick a hit show if his life depends on it, but it’s another thing entirely for this man to be screwing around having a “fratboy” time and not caring one iota for the shareholders.
I, for one, will be calling Jeff Immelt tomomorow and demanding he deal with this moron. This is why my shares are in the toilet and please don’t blame the economy again. this is absolutely ridiculos and I have had it. It’s unbelievable and not at all funny. Our company is in a shambles. We need to top managment now!
He’s just having fun and being happy.
This doesn’t seem egregious to me- he’s poking some fun at himself even. And it really doesn’t matter what Ben Silverman does- he rubbed some very important people the right way a while ago, and he is a product of nepotism as so many executives in this town are. He will always have a powerful position somewhere in the industry, so it doesn’t seem wrong for him to feel entitled to act how he likes. Sorry to disappoint those seeking his comeuppance, but mogulhood is not a meritocracy.
