Kristin Chenoweth has some advice to Anthony Weiner if he ever wants to become popular. The 45-year-old singer performed a parody about the New York City mayoral candidate’s ongoing sex scandal on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno Tuesday, July 30.

The petite Broadway star took the stage in a white lace mini-dress and sang a spoof about Weiner to the tune of “Popular” from the Tony award-winning musical Wicked. “You will be popular, the right kind of popular/ I’ll teach you to zip your fly, you won’t be that guy with a camera down his pants,” Chenoweth sang about the married father, 48. “I’ll teach you what tweets to tweet, something clean and sweet/ We’ll make sure you get your chance to be popular, the right kind of popular/ They’ll think you became a monk, though they’ve seen your junk/ Now you’ll play a different show, so let’s start because you have an awfully long way to go/ Long . . . well . . . “
After resigning from Congress in 2011 due to a sexting scandal, Weiner announced he was running for New York City mayor again in 2013 and claimed he was a changed man. But Weiner got caught in a second sex scandal when allegations were made that Weiner, using the alias Carlos Danger, had continued sexting after his resignation.
“They’ll be no more sexy texts with your biceps flexed,” Chenoweth sang on The Tonight Show. “Your roaming I will roam no more/ You want to be the mayor, stop acting like a big old whore.”
