VIDEO: The rapping traffic reporter

Jenny must be one of those people who like to revolutionize the way they do their job. Instead of just telling the audience the traffic report in a fake voice like most broadcasters, she decided to rap it.

Yes, the traffic reporter for NBC affiliate WXII in Winston-Salem, NC channels her inner Jay Z about road congestion in this clip and that is an insult to Jay Z so I apologize to Rock-A-Fella. Jenny, bless her heart, even tries to get the moves down.

She gives looks of embarrassment to the camera even before the performance's start, so I'm not sure if this was some kind of a dare or ratings stunt. But make sure to check out the weather guy at the end when Jenny calls him a girl. That's classic. He's the best middle-market "Mr. Weatherman" archetype.

After this, we'll probably be watching Jenny on Nick Cannon's Wild 'N Out one day.

Let me tell you, Jenny's clip has nothing on the Saturday Night Live Natalie Portman rap clip with Andy Samberg and the Lonely Island guys. That was REALLY whack. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
