Kamala Harris Delights SNL Audience In Skit With Maya Rudolph
US Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris made a memorable appearance on Saturday Night Live, joining actor and comedian Maya Rudolph, known for her spot-on impressions of Harris, in a light-hearted sketch that brought the audience to their feet.
The skit opened with Rudolph seated in a dressing room, staring into a mirror. Suddenly, her reflection turned out to be Harris herself, dressed in matching attire. The audience erupted into cheers as the real-life Vice President appeared, and the duo launched into a playful exchange full of puns based on Harris’s name. Phrases like “keep calm-ala and carry on-ala” and “kick back in our pyjama-alas and watch a rom com-ala” had the crowd laughing along.
As the sketch drew to a close, Rudolph stood up and announced she was off to “vote for us,” prompting Harris to ask hopefully, “Any chance you’re registered in Pennsylvania?” Rudolph’s quick reply—”Worth a shot”—earned another round of laughs.
The appearance showcased Harris’s sense of humour and her strong rapport with audiences, adding a dose of charm and lightness to her campaign as she heads towards the final stretch of the election season.
