People Are Warning Maya Rudolph Not To Do This 1 Thing As Kamala Harris On "Saturday Night Live" This Week

It’s hard to say how Saturday Night Live will riff on the election results this week, but some people have named one thing they hope the show doesn’t do.

As results in favor of President-elect Donald Trump rolled in Tuesday night, people couldn’t help but recall a similar feeling as 2016, when he prevailed over Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton — and the polarizing sketch that followed.

For those with a short memory, the first SNL episode after Trump won the 2016 election featured Kate McKinnon dressed as Clinton performing “Hallelujah.”

Tuesday night’s echoes of 2016 made some on social media wonder if Maya Rudolph, who has been portraying Vice President Kamala Harris on the long-running comedy show, would take a seat at the piano.

Rudolph was recently joined by the Democratic presidential candidate during the show’s cold open in its most recent episode.

If she is in this week’s episode, which is being hosted by Bill Burr, it will undoubtedly be top secret until 11:30 p.m. Saturday night.

HuffPost reached out to NBC to see if Rudolph will continue to portray Harris this season, but no one immediately responded.

However, many were adamant that the show not take the same approach as it did in 2016.

Others tried to forecast Rudolph choosing a more relevant tune for 2024.

Meanwhile, others were just bummed Rudolph wouldn’t get to provide comic relief on SNL for the next four to eight years.
