Now that Donald Trump lost the election, Alec Baldwin is finally done playing him on Saturday Night Live. Yesterday, after filming his final episode, he wrote on social media, “It’s been fun. And thanks for watching.”
I am sure he is going to miss playing “our favorite president.” That sentence is as full of truths as the ones that come out of the sore loser’s mouth every time he speaks.
Kate McKinnon is really good at staying in character, but yesterday she lost it on Saturday Night Live. While doing a segment during Weekend Update, she just broke. Colin Jost had to stop and ask if she is OK. She said, “I am obviously not.”
She then went on to explain that she created this character to cope with all of the uncertainty with the election and COVID-19. Something we can all relate to these days.
Morgan Wallen was supposed to be performing on Saturday Night Live this week, but today they pulled the offer. The Country singer was seen partying over the weekend without a mask and kissing strangers on TikTok. That is something you can’t do during the coronavirus pandemic; and then expect to work on a set.
Wellan, from his hotel room in NYC, recorded a message of apology for his fans. “I respect the show’s decision because I know I put them in jeopardy, and I take ownership for this. I’d like to apologize to SNL, to my fans, to my team for bringing me these opportunities, and I let them down,” he said.
The musician realizes he screwed up big time. “I think I have some growing up to do. I think I lost myself a little bit. I tried to find joy in the wrong places and, I don’t know, it’s left me with less joy, so I’m going to try to work on that. I’m going to take a step back from the spotlight for a little while and go work on myself.” Then he added, “I wish I could have made country music and my fans proud this Saturday, but I respect the decision once again.”
As of today, he has not tested positive for COVID-19, but the damage has been done.
Can you imagine if DC was this tough on people who didn’t wear masks? Then maybe the president and his lackeys would not have coronavirus. Not only that, maybe we would not have cases spiraling out of control all over the country. Strange concept.
When it comes to his replacement, Variety says, as of now, they do not have one. Hopefully, they will go with Bon Jovi, who just released an album and live close to the city.
On Saturday, Saturday Night Live will be back with new episodes, and there is a new person playing Joe Biden. That person, as we know, is Jim Carrey. Now, we are getting our first look at him as the Presidential candidate. I am blown away by how much he looks like him. Not only can Carrey mimic a person’s voice, but he can also mimic their faces. He is one of the greatest talents of our lifetime.
Saturday Night Live will be back with new episodes starting on October 3rd, and will go live every Saturday night throughout the month.
We know they have their Donald Trump in Alec Baldwin, Kamala Harris in Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon as everyone else but Joe Biden. Today, we found out who be impersonating the Presidential nominee, and it is Jim Carrey.
Did you have Jim Carrey as your choice? Does he have your vote? I have been racking my brain on that one for a few weeks, and Michaels got it right again.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Carrey hosts the season premiere from 30 Rock. Talking about them going back into Studio 8H at Rockefeller Center for the first time in six months, we found out that they will have a limited audience in the studio with them. If you thought getting tickets was hard before the coronavirus pandemic, it will be nearly impossible now on.
SNL also announced that they have added three new not ready for primetime players joining the show. To read their bios, then click here!
