Hilary Swank can play a troubled transsexual, no prob. And an underdog boxer? Piece of cake. But ask the two-time Oscar winner to play a parrot—like Ellen did today during a game of “Celebrity – Animal Edition”—and you get one of the more confusing, disturbing, just-plain-wrong performances I’ve ever seen. I’d describe it as a mix between a meth-addled dolphin and one of those poison-spitting dinosaurs from Jurassic Park, with just a dash of a District 9 prawn. Check out the clip, below.
So what’s the deal here? My guess: Swank probably got lost in the bird house at a zoo for six hours as child, crying her little eyes dry as the cruel birds mocked her cries for mama. Or maybe she just didn’t land a part in Paulie? Gotta be something. What are your theories, PopWatchers?

haha she definitely sucks at this game but you can’t win them all lol
ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
was that a mute elephant?
I actually watched this on TV, and it was pretty funny.
Maybe she would’ve done better if she’d pretended to be a male parrot.
