Tenacious D recently put on their third annual Festival Supreme, and in what was undoubtedly one of the highlights of the show-slash-life as know it, Amy Poehler joined Jack Black on stage to make sweet, sweet music.
The pair covered Bette Midler‘s campy classic ‘The Rose’ and Poehler poured all her feelings into it and then some, while Black added his finest vocal harmonies.
As she once told Vulture, Amy Poehler is a really, really, really big Bette Midler fan, and even has weird dreams about her:
“So I first met Bette Midler in my head when I watched the film The Rose in 1979. And since then, her and I have been best friends, in my head. In my head, she and I travel together, we have cut an album, and we pranked George Clooney. She’s the godmother to the children of mine that she has never met, and once, Bette turned to me in a dream and said, “Amy, you are the most talented person I’ve ever met. I hate to say this, this kills me, but you’re more talented than me. God bless you and I release you to God,” and then she turned into a million doves and flew away.”
