The latest episode of Saturday Night Live managed to make headlines for a number of reasons. Fan-favorite actor Timothée Chalamet took on hosting duties and crushed it, with his stand-out role being an A+ impression of Troye Sivan. On the other hand, the show received somewhat negative attention due to a sketch related to Britney Spears’ revelation-filled memoir, The Woman in Me. It even seemed this past weekend that the pop star’s manager blasted the skit on social media. Now, however, he’s speaking out to set the record straight on the situation.
In the SNL sketch posted to YouTube, cast member Chloe Fineman played the iconic singer, who recalled the various stars who humorously attempted to audition for the job as the narrator of the memoir’s audiobook. (In actuality, fan-favorite Michelle Williams was tapped to narrate.) Celebrities depicted in the skit include Allison Janney (Heidi Gardner), Mikey Day (Steve-O) and even Jada Pinkett Smith (Ego Nwodim). While a number of fans seemingly took to the humor, others did not. Amid that, a message from someone appearing to be Cade Hudson surfaced on Instagram, and it contained that sentiment that the long-running comedy series “isn’t funny” and is “on life support.”
