The Internet Lost It Over A Photo of John Mulaney
First off, hello, hello, hellooo! My name is Emily and I’m so excited to be one of the new Dlisted writers. I’m a comedian/writer in Toronto, originally from Cobourg, Ontario (shout out to the two deeply closeted teens from that small town shrieking in delight at the mention). I love statement eyebrows, my cat Bob Sacamano, loungin’, drinkin’, and loudly making fun of things. I’m also single, which segues seamlessly into this very horny post.
Harry Styles Shaded Zayn Malik On “Saturday Night Live”
Many-nippled wonder Harry Styles was the musical guest and host of this past weekend’s Saturday Night Live, and he wasn’t bad, which is saying a lot considering what usually happens when non-actors host that show. Harry also found time to shade his old One Direction group member, Zayn Malik, in his opening monologue, and inspired many to fill Sara Lee’s Instagram comments with thirstiness. But they’re cool with it.
Michael Che Might Have Subtly Addressed The Backlash From His Caitlyn Jenner Joke
It’s Michael Che’s job to read the news on Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update segment. But for the second week in a row, he is the news. Last week, Michael Che pissed off viewers with a transphobic joke about Caitlyn Jenner. This week, he delivered a series of jokes that appeared to be self-aware of the backlash.
Michael Che Went There And Called Caitlyn Jenner “Fella” On SNL
Michael Che once again has decided to remind us that he’s still Saturday Night Live’s second most likely reason for an NBC spokesperson to work overtime on a Monday. On Saturday night, Michael Che made a joke about Caitlyn Jenner during Weekend Update. Except he didn’t call her Caitlyn, and he didn’t call her “her.” Casual transphobia? Scarlett Johansson is wondering if she picked the wrong Update host.
“Saturday Night Live” Apparently Had A Plan To Win Over Conservatives With Shane Gillis
Variety says that Saturday Night Live had a plan but it sort of completely went wrong. Yes, I’m talking about the mess that was Shane Gillis. As you know, Shane was hired to be white guy number 7 of the cast, but his life exploded when the internet brought out a podcast episode from last year of him and his friend/co-host Matt McCusker referring to Chinese people as “chinks” and lamenting their desire to learn English while in public, etc. Well, it turns out that SNL actually wanted a guy like Shane because they wanted to bring in the conservatives.
“Saturday Night Live” Has Washed Its Hands Of Shane Gillis
Well, I’ve got some good news for you. You can now go back to forgetting the name Shane Gillis. Because Shane Gillis has gone from one of the newest Saturday Night Live cast members to newly unemployed. SNL announced that Shane Gillis is now SOL because he’s not going to be a cast member anymore.
