This makes me happy to hear. I know it won’t hold for long but if there’s any week we needed them to mostly put him out of mind it was this one
Did we know that Jane Wickline’s dad was a writer for Letterman and her mom was Lorne’s personal assistant? My other SNL-lovehating friend just dropped that on me like it was common knowledge haha
I knew that but only because people were saying (just the messenger here) that they had to make room for her because of nepotism so that’s why Chloe Troast got let go
Yeah I didn't know the details but I heard she's a nepo baby. I think her tiktoks are legitimately really funny tho. Maybe that hasn't translated into her snl appearances yet
If this were true it would really suck! SNL doesn’t seem to have qualms about having a bloated cast so I’ll file that away in Strictly Rumors, but damn, I’m for sure a little bitter about losing Troast so abruptly
I thought they quietly fired her because her bf was a known abuser and she was defending him/attempting to silence people about it. At least that’s what tiktok said
I’ve heard this but haven’t really looked into its validity, and also question how much the show that let people like Trump, Chapelle, and Gillis host well past their controversies would care about something that was only really known in the NY comedy scene. But yeah if her defending an abuser is true, then good riddance
Yeah I'm no expert on the issue but I don't think Lorne has any issue platforming problematic people (but fired Jenny Slate for dropping an f bomb?)
I think this is a common misconception, that happened on Jenny's first episode and she did a whole season after that. I think she's just another case of a really talented person not doing well on the show and thriving after
Chloe confirms that the host who made a cast member (her) cry was Elon after he ripped apart a sketch she stayed up all night working on https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8LDxujw/ Edit: Chloe confirms in the comments it was the Ooli sketch.
He’s such a fucking goon. That sketch he claims he pitched where he’s holding a chicken and making cock jokes just shows he has no idea what humor is.
i mean, yeah, i had the rerun on (i'm on west coast) but i fell asleep and missed Pink Pony Club, Weekend Update, and the first half of the Little Richard sketch. Thank goodness I woke up just in time for the new song.
Also, the promise of a new Chappell song had to help too. I feel like big artists rarely debut a new tune on SNL.
