Bowen Yang on Sydney Sweeney’s “SNL” Jokes
Bowen Yang recently shared some behind-the-scenes details about Sydney Sweeney’s time on “Saturday Night Live.” According to Bowen, Sydney was all in for a bit of fun and even encouraged the writers to poke fun at her.
Embracing Humor
Bowen revealed that Sydney was super eager and “practically begging” the “SNL” team to include jokes about her appearance. She wanted to show she could laugh at herself and didn’t take things too seriously. This is pretty refreshing in an industry where people can often be overly sensitive.
The Backlash
Despite Sydney’s enthusiasm, not everyone found the jokes funny. Some viewers thought the jokes were in poor taste and felt they focused too much on her looks rather than her talent. This backlash sparked a conversation about how women are portrayed in comedy.
Setting the Record Straight
Bowen explained that Sydney’s openness made it easier for the writers to create content that she was comfortable with. It was all in good fun, and Sydney herself was on board with the jokes. This wasn’t a case of the show making fun of her without her consent.
A Positive Experience
In the end, Sydney enjoyed her time on “SNL” and appreciated the chance to show a different side of herself. Bowen emphasized that the experience was positive for everyone involved and highlighted Sydney’s great sense of humor.
It’s clear that Sydney Sweeney has a great attitude and knows how to have a good laugh, even if it’s at her own expense!
