Cookie Monster to Host SNL!?

Cookie Monster is campaigning to host SNL, hey it worked for Betty White! He made his own audition tape, which sad to say, is funnier than most SNL skits that don't feature Kristen Wiig. Plus saying "Om nom nom nom nom!" never gets old. Check out the video below and also his Facebook Page.

Kristen Wiig will now play every character on SNL

Will Forte has just announced he will not be returning to SNL next season leaving Kristen Wiig with the sole responsibility of carrying the entire show.

Not much was said about why he was leaving other than he was thankful for the 8 seasons he had and would be pursuing other opportunities. Perhaps he might go on to have a successful post-SNL movie career like Chris Kattan or Jimmy Fallon. One can only hope he will be replaced by an additional competent ethnic person which the show has severly been lacking since Maya Rudolph's departure. Kennan Thompson doesn't count, I said competent!
