'SNL' Bit Goes Hilariously Off The Rails After Audience Shouts Out NSFW Word On Live TV

A "Weekend Update" segment on SNL this weekend left cast members visibly shocked after a call and response moment quickly turned south.

SNL's live studio audience hilariously surprised cast members during a spontaneous interaction in the most recent episode.

It happened during the "Weekend Update" segment when SNL ensemble member Ego Nwodim ridiculed the White House Correspondents’ Association for dropping comedian Amber Ruffin as the headliner for the correspondents' dinner on April 26.


Nwodim appeared on Weekend Update as a stand-up persona named “Ms. Eggy,” proving she'd be a worthy replacement for the dropped headliner, who had criticized Republican President Donald Trump's administration on a podcast.

Ms. Eggy demonstrated her comedic chops for the studio audience, at one point roasting political figures like Democratic New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, who made history on April 1, 2025, for giving the longest speech on the Senate floor at just over 25 hours.

Nwodim's alter ego quipped:

“Cory Booker out here with his filibuster—shoot, I’ve had my fill of busters.”

She then pointed the mic towards the audience and asked, “…Cuz, these men ain’t what?”

Without missing a beat, the crowd shouted back in unison, "Sh*t!"

Here is an uncensored clip.

Nwodim was visibly taken aback but stayed in character and responded with:

“We finna get fined for that.”

She referenced SNL creator Lorne Michaels, adding:

“Y’all gonna have to pay for that. Lorne’s gonna be mad at y’all,”

Meanwhile, "Weekend" co-hosts Colin Jost and Michael appeared dumbfounded and face-palmed, laughing over the fact that the live viewers went there.

The internet thought there was no other answer.

The audience praised Nwodim's dedicated character performance.



The White House Correspondents’ Association announced it would no longer host a comedian, citing its goal to avoid focusing on "politics of division."

In February, they had announced Ruffin, who became the first Black woman to write for a late-night talk show when she became a writer for Late Night with Seth Meyers in 2014, to host the correspondents' dinner.

She was dropped after facing backlash for comments made in late March on The Daily Beast podcast, criticizing Republican President Donald Trump's administration.

During the podcast, Ruffin said she had no intentions of slamming "both sides" of the political aisle with her jokes at the event, stating, "I care. Like, you're kind of a bunch of murderers."

“It’s bonkers that we’re still acting like things are normal,” she added.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
