Shane Gillis and James Austin Johnson went mono-a-mono as Donald Trump on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend, mocking the former president’s new sneaker line in a parody movie trailer called “White Men Can Trump.”In the skit — which aired amid Gillis’ sheepish return to Studio 8H after getting hired, then immediately fired from the sketch show in 2019 — the 36-year-old guest host plays an average guy named Gordon Dwyer who “can’t catch a break” in anything whether it be in love or basketball. However, things seem to change when Gillis is gifted a pair of the 45th president’s branded sneakers.

Shane Gillis, who was hired and then quickly fired from NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” in 2019 for racist, homophobic, anti-Semitic and transphobic remarks on his podcast, will host the long-running sketch show with musical guest 21 Savage.And, while the 36-year-old claims to have learned from his “offensive, hurtful, and unacceptable” on-air slurs, he continues to work cruel stereotypes into his material according to the Los Angeles Times.Still, his stand-up comedy and podcast have thrived post-firing; Gillis became particularly popular with conservative and anti-woke audiences after being let go.Now, he’s midway through a nationwide tour which includes three shows at NYC’s Radio City Music Hall on March 1-2.As of now, demand seems quite high for his live shows; at the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets for any single gig was $51 before fees on Vivid Seats.Other shows have seats starting anywhere from $60 to $267 before fees.All prices listed above are subject to fluctuation.A complete calendar including tour dates, venues and links to the cheapest tickets available can be found below.(Note: The New York Post confirmed all above prices at the publication time.

Kristen Stewart has revealed how Donald Trump’s tweets about her break-up with Robert Pattinson inspired her to come out as gay.In February 2017, Stewart hosted Saturday Night Live and took the opportunity to hit back at the then-President of the United States, who had been highly critical of her on social media.“Donald, if you didn’t like me then, you’re probably really not going to like me now,” she said during her opening monologue. “Because I’m hosting SNL and I’m, like, so gay, dude.”In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Stewart said the decision to come out on national television was a “very shoot-from-the-hip moment”, explaining that it came about after the SNL team suggested using Trump’s comments in her monologue.In Trump’s tweets, the former president accused her of cheating on her ex-boyfriend and Twilight co-star Pattinson, and encouraged him not to get back with her.“He’s mad at me for cheating on my boyfriend?” she said.
