It was probably inevitable — Saturday Night Live did its own interpretation of the altercation between Will Smith and Chris Rock at the Oscars. The skit did not show the slap, instead focusing on Will Smith, played by Chris Redd, who is having a conversation with a seat filler, played by host Jerrod Carmichael, during Chris Rock’s speech.

Tonight on SNL, Weekend Update‘s anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che made every Will Smith joke they’d been holding onto over the course of the past week, following the Oscar winner’s slap of Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards.

United looked dreary as Ralf Rangnick named a strange team to face Leicester with Cristiano Ronaldo and Edinson Cavani injured.

Gwyneth Paltrow, 49, the notoriously disciplined, lithe-limbed founder of the lifestyle brand, must have been tough. Not to mention how the pressure to embody the wellness principles that underpin Goop’s brand philosophy would take its toll on any mortal, especially if you haven’t grown up in Hollywood’s glare as Paltrow has.I can relate to Loehnen’s sentiment. At my core I am a comfort eater, dining like a teenager for bouts of time in a thinly veiled attempt to soothe and distract from the undulating hormones and responsibilities that plague women in midlife.
