Amy Adams declined raunchy SNL song to protect young Enchanted fans: 'It will be scarring for them'


Amy Adams turned down an NSFW song with the Lonely Island in order to protect young 'Enchanted' fans when she hosted 'SNL' in 2008, Andy Samberg revealed.

The comedy trio – composed of Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone, and Akiva Schaffer — explained that they’d pitched Adams the idea for a hilarious sexually explicit song when she hosted Saturday Night Live in 2008, but that she declined the offer because she didn’t want to scar fans of her film Enchanted. "I'm not gonna go into great detail about it, but it was a song that would have been a duet with me and Amy Adams, and it was very dirty," Samberg recalled of the lost sketch on a recent episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast. “Up until that point, YouTube and stuff — [it] was a year or two into it even existing and being a thing that people would be like, ‘I’m gonna watch everything with Amy Adams because I love Enchanted' and accidentally finding that proposed song.”
