Cee Lo Green is having a moment. It's sure ain't his first, and it likely won't be his last. But it is indeed a moment. Pretty much everyone, from your weird aunt with all the cats to your little nephew who only just started walking, loves this dude and his smash hit song, "F*** You" (even if they sing the more polite version, "Forget You," like Gwyneth Paltrow did on "Glee").
In this exclusive Buzzworthy interview, Cee Lo talks about how "F*** You" came about. It's the product of a nearly yearlong collaboration with songwriters Bruno Mars and Phil Lawrence. Together the trio found that they shared not only similar musical sensibilities but similar senses of humor.
Speaking of senses of humor, Cee Lo got a laugh out of William Shatner's, um, unique cover of the hit song. The two even connected over Twitter and formed a mutual appreciation society with one another.
Cee Lo also talks about his time with the venerated hip-hop group Goodie Mob as well as his partnership with producer Danger Mouse in Gnarls Barkley.
