Aimee Lou Wooden on ‘Saturday Evening Stay’ parody
Aimee Lou Wooden didn’t discover Saturday Evening Stay fairly so humorous final weekend—and he or she’s letting everybody understand it.
The White Lotus and Intercourse Schooling star took to Instagram to voice her disappointment after SNL spoofed her character from the hit HBO collection in a pre-taped sketch that, based on her, missed the mark by a mile.
The sketch, which aired Saturday evening, was principally geared toward poking enjoyable at Donald Trump and his political circle.
However within the combine, forged member Sarah Sherman portrayed a parody model of Wooden’s White Lotus character, Chelsea, full with an exaggerated accent, outsized pretend tooth, and the now-infamous line, “Fluoride? What’s that?”
Wooden, 31, didn’t keep silent.
By Sunday morning, she had shared her ideas with followers through Instagram Tales.
“I did find the SNL thing mean and unfunny xo. (Felt righteous, might delete later),” she wrote—quick, sharp, and straight to the purpose.
She adopted up with one other publish that exposed simply how disenchanted she felt, “Such a shame cuz I had such a great time watching it a couple of weeks ago. Yes, take the piss for sure — that’s what the show is about — but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?”
And in case rumors began spinning uncontrolled, Wooden cleared up one significantly bitter declare—that somebody at HBO had referred to as her ugly.
“Nobody at HBO called me ugly!!” she acknowledged.
She defined that White Lotus creator Mike White had truly championed her for the position, “It was honestly from the nicest place, but my little head goes: ‘HBO didn’t want me. And I know why HBO didn’t want me, it’s because I’m ugly,’” she mentioned, including with a mixture of sarcasm and coronary heart, “Mike had to say, ‘Please let me have the ugly girl!’”
As the net buzz grew, it seems SNL did attain out.
Based on Wooden, the present has since apologized for the sketch. No phrase on whether or not she’s forgiven them simply but, however right here’s hoping there’s not less than a extra “nuanced” punchline subsequent time.
