Mayor Michael Bloomberg joined the ranks of the many comedians who have spoofed SPIDER-MAN in recent months.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg's spoofed the troubled SPIDER-MAN musical at Saturday night's Inner Circle charity dinner, where the city's political reporters roast public officials. The major swooped over the stage attached to a harness and then, got stuck.
Next came a parody of MAMMA MIA called "Major Mia" which spoofed Bloomberg's life and rise to mayor. It all ended with Bloomberg going to save the city as "Spider-Mike."The theme of the charity event was "Meet the Focker-Uppers," a reference to the Ben Stiller movie as well as the debacles at the start of Bloomberg's third term as mayor.
The evening joked about the Christmas blizzard, the appointment of Cathie Black as Schools Chancellor and Bloomberg's comment about drunk Irish "people hanging out windows."
Last year, Bloomberg, Snooki, and "The Situation" all took part in the skit, "Mair: 3 Terms of Peace and Music" with the Broadway HAIR tribe.
Bloomberg's appearance at the event marked his ninth year at the annual event, which raises money for a number of causes including the Coalition for the Homeless, the Museum of the City of New York and the American Heart Association. Past performances by Bloomberg have included numbers with the Broadway casts of The Little Mermaid, Mary Poppins and Spamalot.
