SNL pokes fun at Chappell Roan with Moo Deng impression

Comedian Bowen Yang appeared on "Saturday Night Live" as a baby pygmy hippo who has found fame online. "Moo Deng" spoofed singer Chappell Roan, who recently told fans she needed to take a break from the spotlight.

I didn't feel like this was being disrespectful or making fun of her, I felt it was just humorously using two hot topics as metaphors for each other.

Can’t believe people get bent out of shape over SNL skits. It means you made it! They like you if they’re making fun of you usually. And showing you can take a joke about yourself can do wonders for public perception.

This was absolutely hilarious. All you whiners have no emotions.

Who is Chapelle Roam and why should I care?

Artists being talented, creating art and entertainment is giving enough to the world.
They don't have to hug, take pictures and pretend to be comfortable with people they don't know personally.

It's not thanks to us if she's famous now, it's thanks to her talent which touched us.
People can enjoy her art and find comfort in it, they can also hate it and pass, that's the end of the story.

Tried to bite the hose from a water? 😂

Which was the most reasonable response people don’t want celebrities telling us what to do her life won’t get worse regardless of the leader

There's a ongoing epidemic of people who really thinks snl is comedy.

Why are you wasting time covering this?

[chrisg]

Put Pat back on SNL. I bet you cowards won’t.

SNL was never funny to begin with. Chappell was right, do research before voting.

Sir David Attenborough X SEVENTEEN ( Dk and Seungkwan) is one of the best things to happen this year. As a Carat and a fan of Sir David Attenborough this is wholesome ❤❤. Thank you so much BBC.

The people who thought this was making fun of chapple are unfortunately none player characters without brains :( this is so clearly not the intention and it makes me sad people are so dumb
