Randi Zuckerberg, Facebook’s former marketing director and sister of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, recently channeled her inner Carly Rae Jepsen with a “Call Me Maybe” parody dubbed “Fund Me Maybe.”
She and her band Feedbomb performed the spin-off live at the ThriveGulu charity event in San Francisco, infusing Jepsen’s chart-topping song with references to the tech world and startup investors.
“Hey, I just launched this. My idea’s crazy, but here’s my startup, so fund me maybe,” belts Zuckerberg, who left Facebook in August 2011 to launch social media firm R to Z Studios (formerly named RtoZ Media).
Business Insider‘s West Coast editor Owen Thomas wrote the lyrics to “Fund Me Maybe” and made a brief appearance in the live performance.
Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” is still number 1 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart, after first appearing on top in June.
