Will Ferrell Once Interrupted Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Closed ‘SNL’ Rehearsal as a Bit, Says Ana Gasteyer: He ‘Did Not Roll With It’ and Was ‘Very Uncomfortable’
'SNL' alum Ana Gasteyer recalled when her fellow cast member Will Ferrell interrupted Sean 'Diddy' Combs' closed rehearsal as a bit.
“Saturday Night Live” alum Ana Gasteyer reflected on her six-year stint on the show on the latest episode of Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers’ “Las Culturistas” podcast, recalling a time when her fellow cast member Will Ferrell interrupted Sean “Diddy” Combs’ closed rehearsal as part of a bit. Gasteyer told current “SNL” player Yang and Rogers that the cast at that time had several recurring bits, including one where Ferrell repurposed his Jerry Reed costume to imitate a crew member named Rob, who had recently been fired by the director of the show’s pre-taped segments. In 1998, when Combs was the show’s musical guest, Rob decided to get into some trouble when it was announced that the rapper wanted a closed rehearsal.
