Mike Myers Crashes ‘SNL’ to Joke About Teslas, Swastikas and Penises
Mike Myers Makes Hilarious Appearance as Elon Musk on “Saturday Night Live”
Mike Myers stole the show during the cold open of “Saturday Night Live” by appearing as Elon Musk, President Trump’s new right-hand man. Myers, in character as Musk, addressed the recent spike in vandalism and attacks on Tesla cars and dealerships, humorously attributing the negative attention to himself.
Seeking a solution to the problem, Musk unveiled the Tesla Model V, the world’s first fully self-vandalizing electric car. With features like self-smashing headlights, self-slashing tires, and AI-powered graffiti, Musk promised a unique driving experience with customizable vandalism options.
Before Myers joined the sketch, James Austin Johnson portrayed Trump, joking about tariffs imposed on imported goods. When Myers made his entrance, wearing a cheese-shaped hat, he humorously referenced his failed attempt to buy the election in Wisconsin, poking fun at recent political events.
Johnson continued the comedic banter, highlighting the word “tariff” as a “tariffic idea” and teasing a fictional economic plan involving random numbers reminiscent of a TV show. He playfully predicted a “Make America Great Depression Again” phase before achieving wealth, adding humor to the political satire.
The sketch also took a swipe at country singer Morgan Wallen, referencing his controversial appearance on a previous episode. Johnson jokingly mentioned imposing tariffs on an uninhabited island named McDonald Island, tying in Wallen’s post-show Instagram caption in a lighthearted manner.
The cold open, hosted by Jack Black, provided viewers with a humorous take on current events and pop culture references. Myers’ portrayal of Musk added a comedic twist to the satirical sketch, showcasing his comedic talent and ability to entertain audiences.
