00:00 Melissa McCarthy surprised fans by making a cameo on SNL, flawlessly
00:04 impersonating White House press secretary Sean Spicer, and completely
00:08 stole the show. Probably one of the best impersonations that SNL has had in a long
00:12 time. Even better than Alec Baldwin as Trump. I mean, just watch for yourself.
00:18 "When I say Rocky start, I mean it in the sense of Rocky the movie because I came
00:22 out here to punch you in the face. And also I don't talk so good." And I think she surprised everyone.
00:29 She looks like him too. I mean, can we do a side-by-side comparison? Who knew that
00:33 she had it in her? Playing up on how aggressive / defensive Sean Spicer is to
00:37 the press, she even used her own podium as a weapon, not once, but twice.
00:44 And then there was the whole Jews being left out of the Holocaust Memorial Day
00:49 statement. Don't get me started with that. "You think it was anti-semitic to not even
00:53 mention the Jewish people in the statement? What are you doing?" "This is
00:58 soapy water and I'm washing that filthy lion mouth." That's exactly the response we
01:03 need and want from someone in our government. It's so funny because it's so
01:07 true, which kind of makes me feel a bit sad about our current state of affairs.
01:11 And there's a comment from Maurice Jones who seems to agree too. "The shame is this
01:15 is so close to the actual press conference that it is scary lol." And what
01:19 does Spicer think about it all? Well here's his reaction on Fox & Friends, the
01:23 only trusted name in news. "It was cute, it's funny. I'd rather us be talking about
01:28 the issues that the president is so committed to helping Americans on, but
01:31 you know, it's part of American culture." McCarthy has had a viral weekend, not
01:37 only appearing on SNL, but also a Super Bowl commercial for Kia. And McCarthy
01:40 wasn't the only one on SNL to take a jab at the White House this weekend.
01:43 Kristen Stewart also spoke out about the president's apparent hatred of her. "Now I
01:47 know what you're thinking, right? That's so crazy. The president tweeted about you
01:51 once. No, no, no. The president tweeted about me 11 times." So how spot-on was McCarthy's
01:56 impression? And should she return on SNL every single weekend? As Spicer, let us
02:01 know in the comments below. For more trends like these just go to whatstrending.com.
