Damon Wayans ‘Purposely’ Got Himself Fired From ‘SNL’ by Going Off Script: ‘I Snapped. I Just Did Not Care’
Damon Wayans revealed how he 'purposely' got himself fired from 'Saturday Night Live' after going off script during a sketch: 'I just did not care.'

That’s because, according to “Live From New York” author James Andrew Miller, Wayans “broke the ultimate golden rule, which is: no surprises.”
