She’s back! Though Kristen Wiig left Saturday Night Live nearly 10 years ago, it’s clearly remained a special place in her heart that she’s often willing to return.
“Will, I’m so excited you’re hosting,” the Bridesmaids star, 48, told host Will Forte during the Saturday, January 22, episode, crashing his monologue. After he asked her to leave, she jokingly replied, “So, I should go? You know, I flew in for this. OK, back to North Korea, it was really hard to get out.”
Despite the Girl Most Likely actress’ excitement to return to Studio 8H, the 51-year-old California native didn’t like how she stole his spotlight. (Saturday’s episode also featured musical performances from Måneskin.)
“I am so excited to be here tonight,” Forte gushed during the segment. “This is my first time hosting SNL. I was in the cast 12 years ago with Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Andy Samberg, Jason Sudeikis and Fred Armisen.

But, look, after 12 long years, tonight is finally my turn. My time to shine. Tonight is all about me.”
After the MacGruber star completed his monologue with the assistance of next week’s host Willem Dafoe, Wiig stuck around to help complete a few sketches with her former NBC colleague. The two SNL alums joined forces as they brought back their “Jackie & Clancy” skit, playing a pair of country music singers on hand to promote their next album after a “12-year sabbatical,” referring to the twosome’s respective show exits.

“Drew Barrymore Show.”“I was really honored that Lorne Michaels offered me five minutes on the show each week to do what I do, videos and whatnot,” the Tennessee native told Barrymore, 48, of the potentially career-making opportunity. “And I had to choose because, one thing, I was going on to an established show where I would have little control.”The human crash test dummy explained that ultimately it came down to a choice between freedom and job security.“At the end of the day it’s like, ‘Am I going to go into a situation where I have no control or am I going to bet on myself and bet on my friends, and go that direction?’” he explained.Knoxville said he ultimately bet on the latter, which “could’ve been a disaster” but “luckily it worked out.” Although he quipped, “some would argue it was still a disaster.”“Jackass Forever” is currently playing in theaters nationwide, and is making a splash among audiences with critics scoring it 85% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.

Mónica Marie Zorrilla “Saturday Night Live” took aim at the growing crisis in Ukraine, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and President Biden in its cold open, which included a timely reference to the flap over Tom Brady’s retirement plans that erupted earlier in the day.The sketch began with President Biden (played by “SNL” regular James Austin Johnson) getting a briefing in the Oval Office about the tense situation in Eastern Europe and other global hot topics from trusted aides and advisors, played by Ego Nwodim, Alex Moffat and Kenan Thompson.
