Comedian Shane Gillis will host Saturday Night Live this week, five years after he was hired and nearly immediately fired by the show.
Gillis, 36, was cast in 2019 but never appeared on an episode. A YouTube clip of his podcast captured him making jokes that were deemed anti-Asian and homophobic, and he was quickly fired. He was not replaced that season. Gillis was known for his impersonations of former President Donald Trump.
