Mike Myers & Dana Carvey: Diss Kanye West At ‘SNL’ 40th Anniversary
Mike and Dana definitely know how to make Kanye smile. The SNL alumni were back at Studio 8H on Feb. 15, as the famed Wayne’s World characters and counted down the top ten things about SNL.
They said, 10. Live show — telling Kanye, who was in the audience to stay seated!. 9. Satire. 8. Saturday Night Dead — saying every year a review happens saying that the show is over. 7. Catch Phrases, 6. Musical Guests, 5. Kanye Sit Down 4. Opening Credits, 3. Aftershow orgies — quickly changing it to wigs, 2. Lorne Michaels 1.The Crew.
Kanye took the multiple disses well and was seen smiling and actually going along with the joked. At one point Mike hilariously even said that Beck had been a musical guest and was better than Beyoncé — referring to Kanye’s outburst at the Grammy Awards following Beck’s win for Best Album of The Year of Queen Bey.
As HollywoodLife.com previously reported, during his diss to Beck, Kanye said “Beck needs to respect artistry and he should have given his award to Beyoncé. And, at this point, we tired of it. Because what happens is that when you keep on diminishing art and not respecting the craft and smacking people in the face …”
Kanye and Kim Kardashian definitely took the jokes lightly — thankfully. The reality star took to her Twitter to share a pic of Kanye with Dana and Mike with the caption, “Party time excellent!!!!!”
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Are you glad Mike and Dana reunited? Should they have dissed Kanye? Did Kanye handle it well? Let us know your thoughts below!
