Druski hosted “Saturday Night Live” on Saturday night, the first digital content creator to ever host the show, and he spent his monologue laying out the only two rules the show gave him: no cussing and no whiteface. He told the crowd he could not promise to follow either one.
Then Emma Stone walked out. Druski had just told the audience he finished filming his first movie with her, and the five time host crashed the monologue to plug “The Catch,” the romantic comedy they star in together, in theaters May 21, 2027. He joked that he plays her love interest in it. She corrected him on live TV.
“I am living proof you can bet on yourself and make your dreams come true.”
Later in the show he broke the second rule too. In “Dru Can See Everything,” a spoof of the Nathan Fielder documentary “You Can See Everything,” Druski played Elizabeth Holmes himself, whiteface, blonde hair and black turtleneck, opposite Jane Wickline as Holmes and Ben Marshall as her partner Billy Evans.
Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock both showed up at the goodnights. The monologue clip the show posted passed 1.2 million views on X in about two hours, and Druski was trending in the top five in the United States before the show was even over.
The timing is not an accident. His Netflix deal was announced on November 2, and his series “Collect & Praise” with Mike Epps premieres December 1. A guy who built his name on Instagram Live just took over the biggest live stage in comedy, and he did it by breaking the only two rules they gave him.
