Mel Brooks gave us sooo much of his talent and gave so many laughter for generations to come. And right as Matthew Broderick started to sing, Mel started to cry, because he can remember every single word he wrote of his songs. And I bet Mel was thinking in the back of his head all the people whom had passed on he worked with, Gene Wilder, Zero Mostel, Peter Boyle, Marty Feldman, Madeline Kahn, all the people who brought his characters to life!!! I think that's what made him cry the most. :)

Michelle Obama has so much class, I wish she was still your First Lady. Great video, Mel is one of my heroes even though I'm 71, we share the same kind of sense of humour. Saviour it Mel because you earned it!!!

This entire tribute is perfection: first for Mel and his genius, and then to see the joy and humanity of Barack and Michelle, and just for this moment, to remember what the White House was like back then, and will, we sincerely hope, rise to that level again.

That's the daughter of Sid Caesar, a comedian. Early in his career, Mel wrote jokes for Sid. Sid was also in "History of the World Part I", so I think his daughter knows who Mel is, and is familiar with is work :)

You know you’ve made it when you get emotional looking back at all of the great things he (as in Mel Brooks) did. This man changed comedy forever and from his early beginnings from the Jewish Catskills/Borscht belt and of course his home of Brooklyn,New York his movies can’t help but make me laugh and smile. 😁🥺
