RuPaul on SNL: 3 sketches you have to see
The best monologues tend to fall into three categories: Incredible stand-ups doing their thing, insanely complicated production numbers, and affecting autobiography. RuPaul borrowed a bit from category one but primarily leaned on category three to deliver a funny but primarily sweet story about his journey from originally arriving in New York City to finally making it to the stage in Studio 8H.
The monologue starts off in familiar territory as RuPaul outlines the gritty nature of New York City in the pre-Giuliani days and hinting at some of the more scandalous activity that went on during those days . But primarily, RuPaul used the moment to extol the virtues of kindness and love, which is both corny as hell but also quietly revolutionary, given the anger on display in both the cold open and also “everything everywhere in 2020.” Being corny is being the opposite of cool. Being corny opens oneself up to pain and ridicule. But RuPaul was defiantly corny, and the crowd ate it up.
The cold opens themselves have their own pattern at this point: Overlong, full of cameos involving non-members of the cast, and generally “fine-if-toothless.” But the end of this particular sketch, in which Bernie Sanders acknowledges that he could stop the “BernieBros” but doesn’t particularly want to do so. The twinkle in David’s eyes betrayed aGranted, that chaos started long before Tuesday night, but the sense of increasing insanity can be traced in these political cold opens.
