Saturday Night Live UK (SNL UK) delivers a sharp spoof targeting Kanye West, now known as Ye, following the dramatic cancellation of his Wireless Festival headline slot.
The ‘Never Have I Ever’ Sketch
In a recent episode, SNL UK cast members play the game ‘Never Have I Ever.’ One pointed line references mistakenly booking a ‘neo-Nazi’ to headline a major music festival, directly nodding to the Wireless controversy.
Wireless Festival Cancellation Details
Organizers scrapped the London event scheduled for July after UK authorities banned Ye from entering the country. The Home Office revoked his electronic travel authorization over antisemitic remarks.
Ye was set to perform as the headliner across all three days. In response, he issued a statement expressing willingness to meet with the UK’s Jewish community.
Broader Satirical Targets
The sketch extends its bite with Emma Sidi portraying Melania Trump. She mocks her recent denial of any personal ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
