Does Aidy Bryant Have Lizzo's Juice?
by EG
Aidy Bryant takes her cue from Lizzo in a sketch that didn't make it onto last weekend's Saturday Night Live. But you can see Bryant being 100 percent if you read on for details.
Eddie Murphy made his long-awaited return to Saturday Night Live on Dec. 21, and one sketch, featuring Aidy Bryant embracing her inner Lizzo, didn't make it to the air.
The sketch (watch below) opens with castmembers Bryant, Kate McKinnon and Cecily Strong discussing Lizzo, who appeared as the musical guest. "She's so confident," says Strong. McKinnon adds, "And she embraces her raw sexual power." To which Bryant responds, "We can do that?"
Motivated by Lizzo being "100 percent that bitch" (referencing the singer's hit song "Truth Hurts"), McKinnon says to her co-star, "You just gotta know it like Lizzo does."
Bryant first tests out her new attitude on castmember Kyle Mooney after he tells her she looks good. "Yes, I damn do. I can see that you want a taste. Don't you, bitch?" she responds. "'Cause you know it's edible, it's incredible and you want to dip your whole damn chip in it. Be aware. I ain't no snack at all. In fact, baby, I'm the whole damn meal."
Bryant continues to embody her new persona when Murphy enters and compliments her work in sketches. "Bitch, I got my own show on Hulu," she responds. "I know you love this fat ass. It's iconic."
