SNL’s Bowen Yang Says One Host Was So Rude Multiple Cast Members Cried
Live from New York, it’s… a total jerk.
Saturday Night Live is known for bringing in A-list stars for hosts, but according to cast member Bowen Yang, the cast has had experiences with the guest stars that are no laughing matter. Including one instance where a past host reduced several people to tears while they were preparing for the week’s live show.
“This man who—or, this person, this host,” Yang began on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen’s Aug. 11 episode, opting not to name the host in question, “made multiple cast members cry on Wednesday before the table read because he hated the ideas.”
Overall, the Wicked star, who joined the cast in 2018, had one word to describe the experience: “Terrible.”
The hit show returns to NBC on Sept. 28 for its milestone 50th season, and while no upcoming celebrity guests have been announced, there’s plenty of speculation. Take, for instance, Olympian Ilona Maher, who jokingly threw her hat in the ring during a recent trip to 30 Rock for Late Night With Seth Meyers Aug. 12. As the bronze medal-winning rugby player joked on Instagram, “At NBC trying to sneak my way into hosting SNL.”
