Unscripted Moment From ‘Saturday Night Live’ Goes Viral
During the ‘Weekend Update’ segment, Ego Nwodim played Ms. Eggy while making jokes about the recent news that comedienne
Amber Ruffin would not be performing at the upcoming White House Correspondents’ Dinner, as reported by the
NPR.
Roomies, as you know, the event has, in part, become known for its roasts and gags, but Ruffin’s removal from the line-up gave Ms. Eggy an idea. Nwodim’s character said she’d want to replace Ruffin’s position before sharing some of the jokes she’d make if she were to receive the call.
While addressing the crowd, Nwodim asked, “These men ain’t what?” But it was the response that left her gagging. The audience shouted, “Sh**!”
The unscripted moment left Nwodim wide-eyed for a couple of seconds while her co-stars Michael Che and Colin Jost were chuckling behind a news desk.
“We finna get fined for that?” Ego Nwodim joked. “Lorne gone be mad at y’all,” referring to Lorne Michaels, who’s the creator of the show.
Nwodim got back in character and finished the rest of the segment, though she had to contain her giggles along the way.
