The longtime “Drag Race” host, both in and out of drag, joined musical guest Justin Bieber to give the “SNL” episode a throwback feel.
The last time RuPaul was on “Saturday Night Live,” America hadn’t even impeached its second president yet. Now the country has gone three-for-three on presidential Senate acquittals, and RuPaul has graduated from the punchline to a 1993 cross-dressing sketch titled “What’s That?” to a charming full-blown host whose studio audience is well-versed in his drag vocabulary.
The politics-heavy show sidestepped President Trump’s acquittal by the Senate, Pete Buttigieg claiming premature victory in Iowa, and other debris from the political whirlwind with its Democratic debate cold open. Moderated by George Stephanopoulos , the first debate sketch of the year brushed by the topics of the day before offering a few topical zingers spread thinly across the sprawling cast of candidates.
Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders got the best of the bunch, as David’s intense, technophobic Sanders ranted like a true “Curb Your Enthusiasm” escapee. He explained that his private jet usage is really for the other passengers’ sake, considering his frequent bathroom usage and loud chewing, and that he probably wasn’t going to do anything about his army of Bernie Bro internet trolls.
Biden had more assurances, explaining that early poll numbers shouldn’t cause any fears: “Joe Biden’s gonna do what Joe Biden does best: sneak up from behind.” Sudeikis’ slang-slinging, out-of-touch Biden closed with a meandering anecdote culminating in a left-field “Cool Runnings” reference as the former vice president claimed to have given Jamaica’s first bobsled team.
