The best episodes of “Saturday Night Live” tend to look at the sensitivity of the host, and sometimes the musical guest, drawing their talents as fuel for the large control machine. This can be even more transparent when the host is also the act of music, as Lady Gaga demonstrated when she first appearance of accommodation since 2013.
What has removed it for so long? Gaga is a natural in the series, and in this outing, she was able to use her huge voice and dance movements singing in several sketches, be funny enough to blend into the rest of the distribution, and judge not to appear in another “Joker” film.
She interpreted two high -energy musical numbers from her new album “Mayhem”, “”Abracadabra” And “Killah. “For” Abracadabra “, she wore a bright red body with an attachment to the flappy skull and found herself at the top of a stack of lying body. I will not be convinced that it was not a discreet tribute to the film”Conclave. “”
Gaga sang with Bowen Yang in two sketches, one with a couple in a restaurant Update of “Wonderful Tonight” by Eric Clapton and another on the reasons why slang like “Slay” and “Bop” should no longer be appropriate. She also sang an ode to a weight Mouse called Pip. In a sketch, she tried to sell the concept Roarin '20s funeral with Heidi Gardner and in a pair of commercial parodies, Small red glasses For women of a certain age and Oreal Easy Run Mascara This made the crying clearly visible. She was also part of a Satanic ritual in a nice restaurant triggered by a customer lying from his birthday.
Sometimes “SNL” does not use all the talents that it can from a very talented host, but this time, with Gaga, the results were impressive throughout.
Cold Open this week focused on the Screaming match Between the Secretary of State Marco Rubio (Marcello Hernández) and the so-called head of the Elon Musk Government Ministry (Mike Myers, returning) during a White House meeting. President Trump (James Austin Johnson) tries to smooth things between Rubio, whom he calls “my good little Marco” before angling his name to “Mark Ruby”. Each of the characters withdrew in internal monologues, Rubio hearing the music at the end of the episode of “Fidb Your Enthusiasm”, Trump realizing that he does not have to say everything aloud and that Musk was doing a gesture of Dr. Evil Pinky while wondering if taking a work from the government was a bad idea. “America does” bad guy “now,” implored Trump. Surprisingly, the sketch did not include a real cries between Rubio and Musk, and the impression of Elon Myers already has the impression of exceeding its welcome in only its second appearance.
The monologue of Lady Gaga started with a few jokes on the age of female pop stars (she is 38 years old, but joked that artists like Chappell Roan and Charli XCX are much older). Gaga praised her skills as an actress and owned to win a raid Award for the worst duo on the screen (“The joke is … I love to win things!”, She said); She also mentioned that the man she was engaged was created by her mother. She concluded: “I promise to act. And sing. And not to do “Joker 3!” “”
Best sketch of the night: why are ridable baggage not in more novels?
There are many reasons why this sketch could have come out of the rails for technical or live reasons: for part, it presents a real puppy. It has a lot of green effects from people who roll on a highway. He even presents a sequence with Lady Gaga and Hernández, who play young lovers, driving baggage behind the scenes and through the audience. But in one way or another, a strange sketch of a woman moving to France for the culinary school and going to the airport on ridable luggage manages to be absurd – he includes a biker gang, the sons of Samsonite – and sweet at the same time. It is an unexpected pleasure.
So good: never underestimate Pip the alegeful mouse
Many pre-filmed sketches have been presented as “a short of Dan Bulla” in sequences of shocking and caricatured violence, and it is no exception. But before he arrives, he tells the story of an intimidated little mouse by the name of Pip who goes to high school and laughed to want to participate in a weightlifting competition. Lady Gaga, as a friendly classmate, sings a very good song while Pip trains using a hot dog wiener as a heavy bag and cheese presses. “Give a cookie to a mouse and he will become lazy,” she sings, “give a challenge to a mouse, he will work like crazy.” It turns out that PIP cannot lift a lot of weight, but he can take revenge on someone who intimidated him.
Winner of the “weekend update”: Oh Lord is the (false husband of Lady Gaga
Kenan Thompson portrayed the former NBA star and current NBA star, Kendrick Perkins, but it was Mikey Day as “Lord Gaga”, the host husband of the host, who ruled “update” this week. Make word games based on Lady Gaga songs and tropes (“She married a lord. I was simply born in this way”), Lord Gaga minimized his wife's achievements and income before making implications on the very famous wife of Colin Jost, Scarlett Johansson. “Can you imagine a man whose woman earns more money than him?” Lord Gaga shouted: “What a nightmare living!”
