Pete Davidson used his sudden week-off from “SNL” internet hosting duties to ship pizza to placing writers after the NBC comedy sketch present got here to an early finish because of the Writers Guild of America strike.
“Saturday Night time Reside,” which reportedly referred to as off its remaining three episodes together with one that includes present alum Davidson, was no exception and the comic put his cause for being on the strike bluntly.
“Gotta help the writers, man,” mentioned Davidson as he handed out L&B Spumoni Gardens packing containers of pizza to placing writers and their supporters in Brooklyn’s Greenpoint neighborhood on Friday.
“No exhibits with out the writers, man.”
Davidson wasn’t the one axed potential host from season 48 of “SNL.”
“Succession” actor Kieran Culkin, with musical visitor Labrinth, was scheduled to host the Might 13 present whereas “The White Lotus” star Jennifer Coolidge was set to affix musical visitor Foo Fighters on Might 20, Deadline reported.
Employees on the sketch present seem like getting paid for the episodes, in response to the publication.
