Yesterday was the season finale of Saturday Night Live. That means it was time for Michael Che and Colin Jost to write jokes for the other one.
How did it go? Scarlet Johansson was the target of one of the jokes for her husband, but she won’t be as upset as Rabbi Jill was sitting next to him as he told Jew jokes.
As bad as they were, Che is in trouble with Kendrick Lamar. The Rapper just got over his feud with Drake, and now he is in a fight with the Weekend Update co-host. I can’t wait to hear that diss track.
Which diss did you think was the worst or best, depending on how you look at it?
After Britney Spears released her autobiography, where she claimed that Justin Timberlake convinced her to abort their baby, he has been persona non grata by her friends.
Because of that, we haven’t heard much from him since then. And now it looks like he is coming out of hiding.
Today, Saturday Night Live announced that he will be the musical guest on January 27th.
Are we ready to forgive him like most did after the Janet Jackson fiasco? We shall see.
Last year, Saturday Night Live cleaned house. This year, none of the Not Ready for Primetime Players left the NBC variety show. In fact, they are getting a new member, and her name is Chloe Troast.
She will be visited by an old cast member for the season premiere on October 14th. That is because Pete Davidson, who will be promoting his standup tour, is hosting, and Ice Spice is the musical guest. The following week, Bad Bunny will do both.
The cast of season 49 are Michael Longfellow, Sarah Sherman, Punkie Johnson, Mikey Day, Ego Nwodim, Heidi Gardner, Colin Jost, Molly Kearney, Andrew Dismukes, James Austin Johnson, Marcello Hernandez, Michael Che, Bowen Yang, Cecily Strong, Kenan Thompson, Chloe Fineman, Devon Walker, and Troast.
Lorne Michael is 78 years old, and he has hinted that he plans on retiring at the end of the show’s 50th season in 2025.
So NBC has two options. They can cancel the show, or they can try it out with a new Executive Producer. And if they go with the latter option, Page Six is reporting that Tina Fey is being courted for the job.
“I would be surprised if it wasn’t her,” a source said. “Seth Meyers has his own show. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg won’t come here. Judd Apatow passed [on the job] years ago. Amy Poehler has her own stuff. Bill Hader is directing a movie. Kate McKinnon is too hot.”
Personally, I think she would be the best choice because she has an eye for talent. And that is something Michaels hasn’t had in a really long time. Plus, she is funny. Does the sketch series even remember funny?
Not only do Michael Che and Colin Jost like to tell jokes on Saturday Night Live, but they also like to play jokes on each other. Since the latest episode aired on April Fool’s Day, Che came up with the perfect way to prank his Weekend Update co-anchor.
Che told the audience not to laugh at Jost’s jokes. And they didn’t. However, someone finally yelled out, “You stink!”
Jost was totally defeated at that moment, so Che let him on the joke. He was thinking, “Am I not mic’ed? And then I was like, ‘Oh, I just suck.'”
He didn’t stop there, then told Che, “That is the meanest thing you’ve ever done to me. I’m covered in sweat.”
Don’t feel too bad for Jost. Remember, he gets to go home and get consoled by Scarlett Johansson.
And my hat is off to Che because that was awesome! I can’t wait to see Jost gets him back. Because you know he will.
