'SNL' Host Ayo Edebiri Apologizes to Jennifer Lopez For Saying Her Singing Career Is "One Long Scam"

Musical guest Jennifer Lopez, host Ayo Edebiri, and Heidi Gardner during Promos in Studio 8H on Friday, February 2, 2024.

The Bear star and recent SNL host Ayo Edebiri used the Saturday Night Live stage to issue an on-air apology to musical guest Jennifer Lopez.

In a skit titled "Why'd You Say It?," host Kenan Thompson confronts contestants—including Edebiri—with their cruel, mean and otherwise snarky social media posts of days past.

After contentiously defending her online behavior, Edebiri's character finally admits that her social media presence is less than ideal.

"It's wrong to leave mean comments or post mean comments just for clout, or run your mouth on a podcast and you don't consider the impact because you are 24, and stupid," Edebiri said, alluding to comments she made about Lopez's musical career in 2020 that recently resurfaced.
