‘SNL50’ Weekend Update Welcomes Back Former Anchors Seth Meyers, Bill Murray; Colin Jost Jokes A-List Audience Went To Diddy’s Parties


For 'SNL50' Weekend Update hosts Colin Jost, Michael Che poked fun at the show's lor(n)e and welcomed former hosts Seth Meyers, Bill Murray.

He added that the night’s special taping was so full that some big names had to view the festivities from “Studio 8G next door, as well as from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn,” flashing an image of disgraced rapper Sean Combs on screen. Another standout was the reintroduction of Meyers, in conversation with Lorne Michaels ‘ “best friends from growing up,” portrayed by Vanessa Bayer and Fred Armisen clad in trapper hats and Canadian puffer vests. While they were initially incredibly gracious toward their old buddy — with Bayer saying she would gladly give up her organs to him after death — the two soon began whispering in fear about a bizarre incident where a less-than-kind Michaels ordered them to pack up his entire apartment for him.
