Seven-time musical guest Kanye West has delivered some of the greatest performances in Saturday Night Live history. And Elon Musk awkwardly hosted that one time. But on “Weekend Update” this week, they were reduced to mere punchlines.
“Kanye West’s antisemitic tweets were condemned by the Black Jewish Entertainment Alliance,” Michael Che reported, before interrupting himself to add, “Just say Lenny Kravitz.”
“After Kanye West’s unhinged social media post, Elon Musk tweeted, ‘Talked to ye today & expressed my concerns about his recent tweet, which I think he took to heart,’” Colin Jost continued. “Well, that settles it.” And while that line alone got a decent laugh, he then added, “If there’s one thing we all trust Elon with, it’s successfully reading another human being’s emotional cues.”
