Shane Gillis Apologizes After Dropping F-Bomb on SNL

Taylor Swift Makes Surprise Appearance on ‘SNL’ to Support Dakota JohnsonHorton certainly heard something during Shane Gillis’ latest SNL appearance. After the comedian raised eyebrows for dropping an F-bomb during a Dr. Seuss-themed sketch while hosting Saturday Night Live Oct. 10, he addressed his on-air mishap. As he said during the show’s goodnights, “My thanks to Rosalía, and sorry about earlier.” ICYMI, during the show—which marked Gillis’ third time hosting SNL—the 38-year-old appeared in a Dr. Seuss-themed sketch, titled “Green Eggs and Ham,” starring as a man named Zachary, who attempted to stop Sam-I-Am (Andrew Dismukes) from trying to force his dad (Mikey Day) to eat green eggs and ham. “Hey! What the hell is wrong with you?” Gillis said on the 8H stage. “My dad says he doesn’t like green eggs and ham. Drop it. Walk away.” After Dismukes’ Sam-I-Am argued that his dad “may like green eggs and ham,” Gillis replied, “Bro, it’s a non-starter.” As Gillis added before immediately realizing the fumble, “He said he doesn’t f--king—Jeez Jeez, like 'em! Whoa, no!”But the audience caught the Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast host’s blunder, laughing and cheering as a slightly embarrassed Gillis put his hand up in an apologetic wave before chuckling. And while the rest of the sketch appeared to go without a hitch, Day made sure to poke fun at Gillis’ snafu before the end. “I want you out of this house,” his character told Gillis’. “You’re a loser, and you said a bad word!” Gillis ran with it, admitting, “Yes I did.”Will Heath/NBCAnd while he later owned up to his accidental F-bomb during his goodbye segment at the end of the show, the moment didn’t steal his thunder. “Thank you guys very much,” he added. “I had a good time."

Simpson and her sister Kourtney Kardashian's PDA-heavy romance with now-husband Travis Barker. But she really took flight in an Aladdin-themed sketch that saw her kiss cast member Pete Davidson. The pair would go on to date for nine months.

Don't believe us? We have just three words for you: David. S. Pumpkins.Dana Edelson/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesJon HammHamm left audiences stunned with his considerable comedic chops when he hosted for the first time in 2008. He's has sinced followed up two more times and has had a handful of surprise cameos. From his unforgettable "Jon Hamm's John Ham" sketch—you know, lunch meat you eat on the toilet—to his live-action Ace in an adaptation of the iconic Ambiguously Gay Duo animated sketch, he's ingratiated himself with cast in a way few other hosts ever have.Will Heath/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesMelissa McCarthyThere is arguably no one on this planet more committed to their craft than the Bridesmaids legend. Case in point? The "Taste Test" sketch in her first at bat as host, back in 2011, when she covered herself in Hidden Valley ranch dressing for a gag. In less than a decade, she's already joined the infamous Five-Timers Club, and even began making semi-regular appearances a particularly enraged Sean Spicer during his brief tenure in the Trump administration.Dana Edelson/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesJustin TimberlakeNearly every celeb on this list could've become a full-time cast member on SNL, easily. And for a time there, it seemed like JT actually might. From "Omletteville," "D--k in a Box," and "Barry Gibb Talk Show" to "Mother Lover," each of Timberlake's five appearances as host made moments that permeated pop culture. And his appearance as one of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" back-up dancers alongside Bobby Moynihan and Andy Samberg? Amazing.Dana Edelson/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesSteve MartinThere are few people who have hosted SNL more than the legendary comedian—in fact, there's only one—and in his 16 stints in Studio 8H between 1976 and 2009, he created memorable characters (the "wild and crazy" Festrunk Brothers, King Tut) and delivered what would become one of the show's most heartfelt moments, honoring Gilda Radner's passing from cancer with a look back at a blissful dance the two shared through the studio.Dana Edelson/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesScarlett JohanssonNot only is ScarJo part of the SNL family thanks to her romance with Colin Jost, but the six-time host has created some indelible moments over the years since her debut in 2006. She's been on hand for whenever the show needed someone to step into Ivanka Trump's shoes, appeared in the grotesque Shud the Mermaid sketch opposite Kate McKinnon and played Lexi (daughter to Fred Armisen's Mark) as the duo hawk chandeliers, ceramic busts, marble columns and porcelain fountains in the fan-favorite sketch.Dana Edelson/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesBetty WhiteUnlike everyone else on this list (save for Kim Kardashian), the late TV icon only hosted SNL once. And, at 88 years old, she became the show's oldest host in its history. The appearance was made even more special because it was literally fan-demanded through a successful Facebook campaign after White's role in The Proposal. She's also on this list because, well, she was freaking hilarious. Our favorite sketch from the episode is this absurd one where Tina Fey's census taker tries, in vain, to get a straight answer out of White.Dana Edelson/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesDwayne JohnsonA member of the Five Timer's Club, Johnson earned his spot on this list the minute he agreed to do The Rock Obama. Enough said.Will Heath/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images via Getty ImagesAlec BaldwinWith 17 official hosting gigs on his resume and countless appearances as former President Donald Trump, Baldwin may be the only star not officially on the payroll who is more closely associated with SNL. From classics like Canteen Boy and Schweddy Balls to impressions of Tony Bennett and, yes, Trump, Baldwin has given fans so much during his many, many visits to Studio 8H.For the latest breaking news updates, click here to download the E!
