He gives me Ryan Reynolds vibes where he's attractive and confident, yet super approachable. Can't wait to see more from Simu

“I’m not Spider-Man… I’m Shang-Chi bitch!”

This man is an icon already.

His charisma is through the roof. Great guy, hope he blows tf up

I STILL REMEMBER HIM FROM WONG FU PRODUCTIONS. ASIAN BACHELORETTE WAS MY FAVORITE

[ScenicFights]

Simu Liu is fantastic in Shang-Chi and I'm looking forward to watching his career closely. He was great on SNL. "I'm Shang-Chi, Bitch!"

[MontanaMoorehead]

Aww. I really liked his monologue a lot. That was really cute and funny.

[ShenanK]

He was great in Kim's Grocery, too. So happy that Simu Liu is getting more exposure through Marvel!

Him: "I'm also the first Chinese host on SNL"
Me: "He is?!"
Him: " . . .To be the fourth Chinese host on SNL"
Me: "Ah. 😊"

this couldn’t have happened to a better person i’m so happy for him

[KB-kmjt]

What an inspiration for my son! This brought tears to my eyes to now see that so many Chinese-American kids will be positively impacted by what he is doing! Finally, Hollywood is making room for Asian talent. All the best to Simu!! Shang-chi was so awesome to watch, the cast, the leading role, the script, so good, and this monologue was sweet and badass all at the same time!! Congrats Simu!!! 🎉🍾🎊🎈

I cannot believe that it was trending in China that people thought SImu was "too ugly to be a Chinese superhero". Homeboy is GORGEOUS. On top of that, hilarious, charming charisma and an amazing personality? He's the whole package! Wish him an amazing career in the future ❤️

I’ve never seen any host on this show speak their lines as smoothly and effortlessly as Simu!! This guy is incredible

[NakedFormula]

“Thanks for getting back to me” Oh, he’s precious. I’m glad Trevor was right!

[popebender]

I love this man. He deserves the world, seriously.

[natalieleui]

I’ve been a lifelong fan of SNL & I can honestly say that Simu CRUSHED IT!! Will definitely need a repeat of him as a host someday!

[hamtoriz]

"I'm not Spiderman. I'M SHANG CHI BITCH!" god i love this man.

[sabatasmia]

"I'm Shang Chi BITCH!!!", the perfect comeback from my #BabyDadySimuLiu

This guy was a natural at an SNL monologue, which for any entertainer has got to be a challenge.

Hold on why is his timing and delivery better than most comedians

That was impressive
