Kenan Thompson Says He'd Meet Shane Gillis If He Hosts SNL Again
Kenan Thompson said at a media summit that he would sit down with Shane Gillis for a candid discussion if the comedian were to host Night Live again. Gillis' recent hosting stint sparked criticism after his monologue likened women in gym shorts to "whores," drawing condemnation from viewers, fellow comedians and SNL cast members such as Ego Nwodim. The backlash dominated coverage of the episode, and Thompson had earlier remarked that the controversy eclipsed praise for other cast members and the musical guest.
