Cecily is the best. Everything she does is magic.

[TDDY]

Cecily is easily the best part of this skit. She keeps such a straight face and delivers everything perfectly

[tyffaneelavely]

Dwayne Johnson is freaking brilliant in this. He is hilarious and not staring down the cue cards like most guests.

[fatdadable]

"What's her name?" "MY name ..." NO, nonono, I asked HIM" killed me.

[sophie]

"how much are onion rings, like 25 cents a ring?"
"let's get 200!"
"babe no, that's like $800"

[jesusislove]

The sad part is that people like that actually EXIST in the real world o.o

[JustDavidOnline]

Cecily is by far one of the most talented members of this new cast.

[anthonybryant]

"I didn't want to, I just wanted it to end." God such an underrated line 😭

[jayspencer]

I swear nobody plays a coked-out, overly aggressive, insensitive, misogynist like Dwayne Johnson and its hilarious because in real life he literally couldn't be any farther from being any of that.

[DaftSwank]

The Rock is such an underrated actor . . . I am happy for his success and enjoy his work.

[iswear]

Being english I would normally say her accent is awful but I live in essex and fuck me it's spot on.

[t.e.burgos]

Cecily Strong should be a much bigger star. She is incredibly talented (and incredibly underrated).

[Byrvurra]

She throws out that "I'm vajazzled" line so fast literally no one in the audience caught it lol.

[harshitachaudhry]

That was the funniest english accent I've ever heard!

[m]

I used to think Dwayne Johnson couldn't act then I saw this.

[ColePhillips]

Cecily MADE this skit. More with her and that accent pls lmao

[quik_laughs]

Dwayne is actually a pretty good actor, it’s just that sometimes, he does roles that don’t show his acting talent

[girliejax]

"aye, U wanna be best friends wit dat girl?"

" Yea I really think so" 😂

[MitchellWiggs]

"I'm Gemma, I'm Vagazzled" and "I've got a song it's called Banana" killed me lol.

[mattjamison]

It's not the premise or the dialogue that makes this hilarious, it's the actor's deliveries and reactions. This must have been hard to pitch on paper but during a read through it must have became clear.
