START WRITING THE SCANDAL SKETCH NOW: Perhaps in response to complaints about lack of diversity in recent hires,
Kerry Washington will host SNL on November 2. Washington is the first African-American female to host since Maya Rudolph in February 2012, and the first non-alum African-American female to host since Gabourey Sidibe in April 2010.
And also, perhaps, because the show is awesome. Also excited about first time (!?) host Edward Norton the previous week, w/Janelle Monae.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see a sketch where Olivia Pope appears on the Californians .. . "tell me EVERYTHING . . ok, you take the 305 to the Santa Monica freeway . .."
ReplyDeleteThat seems really odd that Norton hasn't been a host yet. Now they just need to get Jenna Elfman and they'll have the Keeping The Faith set.
ReplyDeleteI confess I'm much more interested in Janelle Monae's performance than Kerry Washington's hosting. But my SNL threshold is VERY low.
ReplyDeleteFun fact: If you close your eyes and just listen to the voice, you cannot distinguish between Kerry Washington and Constance Zimmer.
ReplyDeleteWhoa, Janelle Monáe is performing on SNL? Awesome!
