Aimee Lou Wood Says Her 'SNL' Portrayal Was 'Mean and Unfunny'
(www.rollingstone.com)
Who?
Yeah, that was kind of shitty
In a non paywalled article sounds like she was disappointed that the punchline for her character was just her teeth.
She didn't say that specifically (I think she said it was just lazy) but having watched the sketch, that's what I'm reading behind the lines.
I'd be pissed too. The sketch was otherwise really great at drawing parallels. Her character got a family guy level of joke.
It was definitely because of the teeth. However it sounds like they've apologized.
I'm confident if she had been on SNL they would have made a joke about her teeth as well, but in that case she would have been in on the joke and they could have laughed together.
Someone should tell her that it’s okay because no one actually watches SNL anyway.
Unpaywalled Link?
Maybe don’t go for a career that requires lots of strangers looking at you if you can’t handle some of them being mean.
