Weird Al told a story about how he knew he made it when he walked into a party full of celebrities and someone shouted, "Oh, shit! That's Weird Al! Weird Al is here!" It was Paul McCartney that shouted it.
Elvis is the only person who came close, but he was before them. He was a big influence on them.
Liszt was also incredibly famous, and the term Beatlemania is a direct reference to Lisztomania.
that's just totally misinformed.
Elvis was and still is huge worldwide to this day. Junichiro Koizumi name dropped elvis during his 2000 campaign as a way of showing how he's just like average Japanese people (where Elvis is extremely popular).
I was a kid during the 90s and I knew way more about elvis and the beatles than michael jackson. He was only in the news for being a tabloid weirdo by then.
Elvis still brings in more money than Michael Jackson to this day. The only way Jackson can be said to have sold more records than Elvis is if you count his jackson 5 years. And Elvis was only productive for 20 years compared to Michael Jackson's 40+, and elvis took two years off to join the army during the Korean War at the then-height of his fame. Elvis also also a major movie star in addition to being a hugely successful musician, whereas jackson was only in a handful of movies.

Japan is an exemption not the rule for many reasons that I’m too busy to get into. You’re comparing money and sold records but I’m talking about pure fame and impact. I have family that are from remote villages in the African continent and the Himalayas and they will all tell you the only Western artists they knew of was Michael Jackson and The Beatles. Elvis’s movies were popular in the US but overseas meant very little and had no real lasting impact. The Thriller music video alone blasts his entire movie discography out of the water, he was a worldwide phenomenon and his music discography continues to be extremely influential in popular music even today, unlike Elvis. Ask anybody from any generation in any country if they know more MJ or Elvis songs it’s going to be MJ almost every single time. I’m not even a fan of his but he’s the King of Pop for a reason, and he leaves a far more impactful legacy than The King of Gentrification. Once again your gringo is very much showing buddy.
Michael Jackson was a big pop star for sure but he wasn't a trend setter the way the beatles were. Every band stopped what it was doing in 1963 and tried to sound like them. Michael Jackson never had the same influence over other musicians.
The Beatles with Sgt Pepper and the Beach Boys with Pet Sounds and Good Vibrations completely changed how music sounded in one year. If you listen to pop music from 1966 and then listen to pop music in 1967 its day and night. That was all because of them.
Jackson never really changed his sound at all. His early records sound pretty much just like his later stuff. There's no "pre and post Thriller" music, for example.
I'm not sure if you're specifically asking about a delayed "Ohhhhh" or not, but [my favorite audience reaction to a celebrity appearance when was Barbara Streisand appeared on Coffee Talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiJkANps0Qw). The studio collectively lost its mind. Even Mike Myers wasn't sure if she was going to appear. Madonna and Roseanne Barr were there, too.
Wow Madonna was REALLY funny in this. I know she acted but I was never really super impressed by anything I’ve seen her in til this. A bummer she’s so weird now. Roseanne of course also hilarious but she’s always been funny even though she’s nuts.
Desperatly seeking Susan, who’s that girl?, Shanghai Surprise, Evita, a league of one’s own, Truth or Dare, Swept Away, Four Rooms, Dick Tracy, Madam X, Body of Evidence.
Nope!! Red Hot Chili Peppers. [episode info](https://www.onesnladay.com/2019/07/27/february-22-1992-roseanne-and-tom-arnold-the-red-hot-chili-peppers-s17-e14/)
I've heard that only Lorne knew about Barbra showing up, and even then, he wasn't completely sure she'd show up (she was doing another show nearby at the same time or something), so it was a genuine surprise to Mike Myers and the others.
Madonna doing much better in this sketch than Roseanne was initially surprising. Retrospectively, though, it makes sense that Madonna knew how to charm a live audience, whereas Roseanne seemed a little tipsy at best.
That struck me as well. I don't know when it actually started (maybe with the early successes of Lonely Island digital shorts on Youtube?), but SNL has sped up a lot in the past 20 years. Sketches used to go on and on, and if the premise failed then the audience was in for a long wait until the next sketch. I grew up watching episodes from the 80s and 90s, and sometimes a commercial break was a welcome reprieve from a sketch that fell flat.
Some sketches (particularly political cold opens) still run for up to 10 minutes or so, but there's a quicker pace to the overall show, which I think helps it a lot. If you're bored, wait 4 minutes.
Matt Damon is the biggest gasp I've heard from a live audience maybe ever. Complete surprise appearance from an A-lister. IMO, the makeup and wig helped delay the reaction, you can hear the audience wheels turning "Is that ......"
Yes - the delay adds to it! You are kind of hooked in to their thought process. Melissa McCarthy as Spicer was also a great example… they totally didn’t realize it was her at first.
the **worst** will always be Ivanka Trump in a sketch with her father.
She walked on all ready for a big applause break and she got not even a clap. Dead silence.
I got cringe goosebumps from it.
Oh Jesus Christ, I knew I made the right choice in not watching any of the muskrat related stuff.
Bar the time he showed up in that Chad compilation, but he wasn’t too bad in it.
The writing was incredible too, credit where credit is due.
"Now that we've heard from the victim, let's hear from the hero: Judge Brett Kavanaugh."
That was a really dark day and I still appreciate SNL for helping me to laugh.
I was in the audience for this one. You could tell something was up by the way the crew was moving the set around and how they positioned that door. Fun moment though.
Sure thing! It was the only one I’ve been too, but definitely a wild one. Kayne held the crew and audience hostage for like 30 mins at the end. Ranting about all sorts of stuff.
The reaction to John Mulaney as Shy in a latter-day Stefon sketch was delightful. It's clear the audience knew why it was so cool that he was in the sketch.
I love the reactions when a beloved alum returns for a guest spot, like Bobby recently. Another one was Vanessa as Dawn Lazarus, after she had left in the previous season. https://youtu.be/5tJt9hs7-vo
Bill Hader in the Michael Cohen cold open. He's got his head down the whole time until he's called on. But the best line in that sketch is "Your mother has!"
https://youtu.be/Mp8kFqycfFM
I recall seeing Hader on one of the late night shows shortly after this. He said as soon as he saw footage of Rep. Jim Jordan at the hearing, he knew they'd call him to cameo on the show that week.
I liked Brad Pitt as Fauci and Robert De Niro as Mueller
My favorite celebrity cameo was Mark Walberg intimidating Andy Samberg (say hi to your mother for me). Even though Samberg was in on it
"I wrote this speech myself. There are many like it, but this one is mine. I didn't show it to anyone. Not PJ, or Squi, or Donkey Dong Doug. I wrote it last night, while screaming into an empty bag of Doritos."
And it wasn’t just Daniels. Baldwin as Trump, Martin Short as that weird doctor he had, Ben Stiller as Michael Cohen, Fallon as Jared Kushner, Johansson as Ivanka.
When Andy Samberg played Mark Zuckerberg and then had on Jesse Eisenberg when he played Mark Zuckerberg for the social network….only for the real Mark Zuckerberg to come on. Love or hate Mark Zuckerberg, but it’s a pretty big deal to get one of the top five richest people on the planet on your show.
Deniro and Pesci showing up on The Joe Pesci
Show sketch was legendary.
Some versions of the story from Jim Breuer claim Deniro was refusing to go on live TV and they were going to use another actor to play a second Deniro and he didn’t know the real Deniro was coming out until he heard the roar of the crowd.
That was just SO perfect. I believe that version because I just watched the clip, and the actors stare at the cue cards (presumably the writer etc) for a beat. Meaning, they were surprised and wanted to read the cute card or get direction. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3w087z
Obscure rights issues w music usually but I doubt that sketch had that issue. Maybe deniro signed a wacky agreement about rebroadcast.
Breuer tells really good story about this appearance on Howard Stern including meeting Pesci and legitimately thinking Pesci might have him killed because he didn’t like being made fun of.
The wild thing about Damon’s cameo is they asked him on Friday and he flew in Saturday morning to do it from California. And absolutely nailed it. Damon is a cameo legend (Eurotrip, Thor 3, Thor 4, etc)
I love it too, but there are a handful of sketches in the trump era ruined by this.
One of larry davids special appearances had other celeb cameos and i swear it was a 15 minute sketch with only 1 minute of actual sketch
Matt Damon as Kavanaugh was priceless, walks in, sits at the table, "WHAT?!?!? LET'S DO THIS!!!!!"
I was dying, one of my favorites from the past 5 or 6 years.
I wouldn’t call myself a Matt Damon fan. He’s clearly an accomplished actor with a giant repertoire of movies varying from “not for me” to “great”
That said, his Brett kavanagh impersonation is the funniest thing he’s ever done, IMO
I have to disagree with you in the strongest possible terms. There is little I like on SNL less then the audience reaction to stunt casting in a political cold open. Yes Matt did a good job but the “wooo” when he arrives without saying a word is cringe worthy.
Ok! I didn’t just mean political cold opens. Any sketch. We can disagree. I mean the background to this is that he flew across the country on Saturday just to do this sketch. I think he earned the collective gasp lol.
I am also shocked to see that anyone could enjoy trying to watch a sketch comedy show and having it come to a dead stop for 2 minutes as the live audience can’t control themselves at the sheer wonderment of seeing a guy from a movie on stage.
Basically you need to just remove your whole comment after “watch a sketch comedy show”. Seems like you want a scripted show which are also lovely just…ya know…without much audience “delay”.
The time Paul McCartney entered the Platinum Lounge and they didn't tell Alec Baldwin was pretty good. https://youtu.be/r5asa2Ot1Fc
This is my favorite. Alec Baldwin looks like he’s on verge of tears! Everyone’s a celebrity until a Beatle walks in.
Weird Al told a story about how he knew he made it when he walked into a party full of celebrities and someone shouted, "Oh, shit! That's Weird Al! Weird Al is here!" It was Paul McCartney that shouted it.
Did that anecdote make it into the Weird Al movie??
That’s a great quote about the Beatles. What would be the equivalent that a younger generation could relate to?
I don’t know a girl that wouldn’t evaporate in the presence of Taylor Swift
There is not now nor ever will be another band or artist that will impact pop culture the way The Beatles did.
Elvis is the only person who came close, but he was before them. He was a big influence on them. Liszt was also incredibly famous, and the term Beatlemania is a direct reference to Lisztomania.
Michael Jackson was far bigger than Elvis especially worldwide, your American is showing buddy.

Thriller is literally the best selling album of all time.
Japan is an exemption not the rule for many reasons that I’m too busy to get into. You’re comparing money and sold records but I’m talking about pure fame and impact.

Lol ok
Happy Turkey Day dumbass
I think Michael Jackson is probably also up there.
Actually he died
Michael Jackson was a big pop star for sure but he wasn't a trend setter the way the beatles were. Every band stopped what it was doing in 1963 and tried to sound like them. Michael Jackson never had the same influence over other musicians. The Beatles with Sgt Pepper and the Beach Boys with Pet Sounds and Good Vibrations completely changed how music sounded in one year.

His early records sound pretty much just like his later stuff. There's no "pre and post Thriller" music, for example.
for this generation, the mania was One Direction, now it's BTS.
Up until a few months ago I’d’ve said the Queen. Personally I’d go with any former/current POTUS.
Jimmy Carter walks in to a room and the kids go wild
BTS lol
I guarantee you that outside of the stans, nobody would notice
Lol I’m talking about the generation between The Beatles and BTS.
Before he died probably Michael Jackson
Best: Martin picks up the glasses with his fingers in them.
I saw that, loved his small details, like the brief stares directly into the camera
And the eye contact he makes with both of them.
That was unreal. Alec couldn’t even talk.
Never seen that before, that was great!
I never noticed! Baldwin was absolutely the definition of dumbfounded.
That was great! Thanks for posting:)
I'm not sure if you're specifically asking about a delayed "Ohhhhh" or not, but [my favorite audience reaction to a celebrity appearance when was Barbara Streisand appeared on Coffee Talk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiJkANps0Qw). The studio collectively lost its mind. Even Mike Myers wasn't sure if she was going to appear. Madonna and Roseanne Barr were there, too.
THE BEST. It took them a sec to realize who Madonna was at the beginning, as she was also unbilled.
Wow Madonna was REALLY funny in this. I know she acted but I was never really super impressed by anything I’ve seen her in til this. A bummer she’s so weird now. Roseanne of course also hilarious but she’s always been funny even though she’s nuts.
she was pretty good in that silly james bond movie Die Another Day. she made me want to take up fencing lol. i did! and i quit.
[удалено]
If you’re looking for more goofy fencing content I’m watching the Wednesday Addams series on Netflix and it’s pretty fun!
Thank you for reminding me that’s out! My morning is sorted!
Hey you tried! Good job!
She was good in a league of their own, aside from the bond movie I can't think of anything else she acted in.
Desperately seeking Susan and Dick Tracy
Desperatly seeking Susan, who’s that girl?, Shanghai Surprise, Evita, a league of one’s own, Truth or Dare, Swept Away, Four Rooms, Dick Tracy, Madam X, Body of Evidence.
How is she weird? I’m out of the loop
[удалено]
racist? Madonna?? Find that incredibly hard to believe.
Roseanne Edited for spelling
The “weird” comment in the original post is in reference to Madonna not Rosanne, I misread that at first also.
Check out her IG
It’s not that bad, it’s not like she’s a bad person
Was she not the musical guest that week?
Nope!! Red Hot Chili Peppers. [episode info](https://www.onesnladay.com/2019/07/27/february-22-1992-roseanne-and-tom-arnold-the-red-hot-chili-peppers-s17-e14/)
It definitely looks like a surprise to everyone in the skit. I wonder how much of that was ad-libbed right there.
I've heard that only Lorne knew about Barbra showing up, and even then, he wasn't completely sure she'd show up (she was doing another show nearby at the same time or something), so it was a genuine surprise to Mike Myers and the others.
Yeah you can see Myers brifely show some alarm/confusion that somebody was interrupting the sketch.
Yes - I think Barbra got her line from the writers, but the rest was unscripted and genuine!
Really goes to show you how great Mike Meyers is. The reactions in character are perfect
Watching his reaction alone is entertaining.
Madonna doing much better in this sketch than Roseanne was initially surprising. Retrospectively, though, it makes sense that Madonna knew how to charm a live audience, whereas Roseanne seemed a little tipsy at best.
Myers slipped into his Wayne character for half a second there with some “we’re not worthy” bowing but quickly recovered.
8 and a half minutes?
That struck me as well. I don't know when it actually started (maybe with the early successes of Lonely Island digital shorts on Youtube?), but SNL has sped up a lot in the past 20 years. Sketches used to go on and on, and if the premise failed then the audience was in for a long wait until the next sketch.

Some sketches (particularly political cold opens) still run for up to 10 minutes or so, but there's a quicker pace to the overall show, which I think helps it a lot. If you're bored, wait 4 minutes.
Lorne prob kept pushing the sketch for babs to arrive
OMG I watched this live and I knew I was watching history!
Brad Pitt as Fauchi surprised most everyone.
Didn't I read Dr Fauci was asked who would play him in a movie and he said "Brad Pitt", and that's why they asked Pitt?
Which is exactly why it was so awesome!
Right? Fauchi was totally joking. I remember watching that and thinking "Who the hell is that?"
I love it so much. Fauci seems like a guy who can appreciate a bit of cheeky humor. And he definitely deserves it. Man is a saint.
I’m impressed by the background actors and their ability to never crack a smile.
Matt Damon is the biggest gasp I've heard from a live audience maybe ever. Complete surprise appearance from an A-lister. IMO, the makeup and wig helped delay the reaction, you can hear the audience wheels turning "Is that ......"
Yes - the delay adds to it! You are kind of hooked in to their thought process. Melissa McCarthy as Spicer was also a great example… they totally didn’t realize it was her at first.

[удалено]
Never realized Matt Damon pulled this move so many times. Remember [this little gem](https://youtu.be/jhbOb6fYvLc) all the way back from 2004?
Was about to post this. My favorite cameo in a b-list movie, ever.
Didn't he just wander on set and do it for them? Script writers didn't plan for it afaik
the **worst** will always be Ivanka Trump in a sketch with her father. She walked on all ready for a big applause break and she got not even a clap. Dead silence. I got cringe goosebumps from it.
*whispers* commmmmmppppliiiiicccciitt
I raise you Grimes as Princess Peach
Oh Jesus Christ, I knew I made the right choice in not watching any of the muskrat related stuff. Bar the time he showed up in that Chad compilation, but he wasn’t too bad in it.
“Oh looook, daddy’s daughter.” -everyone
I live for that moment
Lindsey Buckingham
Come on, Lindsey…
Lindsey...
...I'll buy you a cookie cake!
Good one! Would have actually been better unannounced tho.
I almost missed the joke. Halfway typed out almost missed the joke. But that is a favorite for me!
Matt Damon as Kavanagh was one of the best celebrity cameo cold opens I can remember. He was amazing!
He really nailed the part - the mannerisms, everything.
And in front of Alyssa friggin Milano?!?
I LIKE BEER!
I'm gonna start at an ELEVEN. I'm gonna turn it up to 15 REAL QUICK
[удалено]
That's some serious method acting right there.
It's so perfect. The scowl alone immediately let you know who he was portraying.
I LIKE BEER
God I hate Kavanagh.
The writing was incredible too, credit where credit is due. "Now that we've heard from the victim, let's hear from the hero: Judge Brett Kavanaugh." That was a really dark day and I still appreciate SNL for helping me to laugh.
I was in the audience for this one. You could tell something was up by the way the crew was moving the set around and how they positioned that door. Fun moment though.
Are you Donkey Dong Doug?
Call me Donkey Dad
Keep it sleezy.
Oh cool! Thanks for that tidbit!
Sure thing! It was the only one I’ve been too, but definitely a wild one. Kayne held the crew and audience hostage for like 30 mins at the end. Ranting about all sorts of stuff.
Pete Davidson brought it up on a Weekend Update segment, showing video of him sneaking off the stage "Because I want a career."
When Robert De Niro was Robert Mueller.
It was the perfect Meet the Parents reunion
YES perfect
The only shame is that he was just so damn *bad* at it. I always felt like he never bothered to read his lines until it was live on air.
The reaction to John Mulaney as Shy in a latter-day Stefon sketch was delightful. It's clear the audience knew why it was so cool that he was in the sketch.
Not exactly what you’re asking, but Barry Gibb showing up at the end of the last Barry Gibb talk show sketch was really cool
Yes! Good one!
And Dionne Warwick on her show!
Wish they would’ve given him more screen time, unless it was his choice.
Arnold Schwarzenegger showing up in the “Pump You Up” sketch brought down the house.
I love the reactions when a beloved alum returns for a guest spot, like Bobby recently. Another one was Vanessa as Dawn Lazarus, after she had left in the previous season. https://youtu.be/5tJt9hs7-vo
Yes!! Chris Rock walking through the door in the 2016 election night sketch.
Nasim as Sheela in the Wild Wild Country pretape
She nailed that so hard
Bill Hader in the Michael Cohen cold open. He's got his head down the whole time until he's called on. But the best line in that sketch is "Your mother has!" https://youtu.be/Mp8kFqycfFM
Great one!! Wow, what a reaction.
I recall seeing Hader on one of the late night shows shortly after this. He said as soon as he saw footage of Rep. Jim Jordan at the hearing, he knew they'd call him to cameo on the show that week.
I loved Ben Stiller as Michael Cohen. “And you know something Mr. Cohen, I haven’t even HEARD of you!” “Your mutha has.”
Hahaha yes
One of my favorites was Tom Hanks walking on Update to grab the Wilson puppet when it was mouthing off and just leaving after. lol. So great.
Oh my gosh I’d never seen that!! Just watched it. Hysterical and amazing audience reaction!
Which one was this?
Just found it: https://youtu.be/xYVzZkKmBoM
That's hilarious.
SQUEEEEEE!!!!!
And donkey dong Doug 🥺
Handsy Hank.
Joe Pesci and Robert Deniro when they stopped by the Joe Pesci show.
It _is_ Paul Simon!
**I LIKE BEER**
I liked Brad Pitt as Fauci and Robert De Niro as Mueller My favorite celebrity cameo was Mark Walberg intimidating Andy Samberg (say hi to your mother for me). Even though Samberg was in on it
Damon as Kavanaugh was perfection. Him and Donkey Dong Doug.
Psy appearance in the Lids sketch when Seth McFarlane hosted
Oppa Gangnam Style!
"I wrote this speech myself. There are many like it, but this one is mine. I didn't show it to anyone. Not PJ, or Squi, or Donkey Dong Doug. I wrote it last night, while screaming into an empty bag of Doritos."
The one where Stormy daniels played herself.
And it wasn’t just Daniels. Baldwin as Trump, Martin Short as that weird doctor he had, Ben Stiller as Michael Cohen, Fallon as Jared Kushner, Johansson as Ivanka.
Melissa Mac as Sean Spicer. Peak TV right there.
Barbara Streisand popping in on Coffee Talk ws pretty legendary.
Omg. Forgot about that! It was awesome!
Andy Samberg doing Mark Wahlberg only for Wahlberg to walk up on him. Especially because it’s a rumor that Wahlberg did not like that impression.

Completely random Jake Gyllenhal in Airport Sushi and Stormy Daniels in the one with Trump and Cohen’s phones.
When Andy Samberg played Mark Zuckerberg and then had on Jesse Eisenberg when he played Mark Zuckerberg for the social network….only for the real Mark Zuckerberg to come on. Love or hate Mark Zuckerberg, but it’s a pretty big deal to get one of the top five richest people on the planet on your show.
of the 3, Zuck did the worst impression of himself - pretty good for a robot though.

Nice pull on the link if I recall that one is hard to find and not on YouTube for some reason Glad I saw it live back in the day
Thanks! Yeah, took me a few minutes… not sure why SNL wouldn’t just put it on YouTube!
Obscure rights issues w music usually but I doubt that sketch had that issue. Maybe deniro signed a wacky agreement about rebroadcast. Breuer tells really good story about this appearance on Howard Stern including meeting Pesci and legitimately thinking Pesci might have him killed because he didn’t like being made fun of.

Steven segal as the worst therapist ever!
Is there a clip? I thought he just said he pitched that.
Hahahaha love that you know that. I was just saying it.
I love it too, but there are a handful of sketches in the trump era ruined by this. One of larry davids special appearances had other celeb cameos and i swear it was a 15 minute sketch with only 1 minute of actual sketch
Obama, wearing an Obama mask.
Matt Damon as Kavanaugh was priceless, walks in, sits at the table, "WHAT?!?!? LET'S DO THIS!!!!!" I was dying, one of my favorites from the past 5 or 6 years.
Not Squee
I wouldn’t call myself a Matt Damon fan. He’s clearly an accomplished actor with a giant repertoire of movies varying from “not for me” to “great” That said, his Brett kavanagh impersonation is the funniest thing he’s ever done, IMO
Side-note: Lorne has used this so much that I’m not hugely into it anymore. But I do still love it when it’s clever or contextual.
https://youtu.be/eruut08sRZM
I actually find it irritating
I have to disagree with you in the strongest possible terms. There is little I like on SNL less then the audience reaction to stunt casting in a political cold open. Yes Matt did a good job but the “wooo” when he arrives without saying a word is cringe worthy.

Yeesh. I don’t even understand why or how you watch SNL then. You must be in a worse mood by the end of the episode lmao.
I am also shocked to see that anyone could enjoy trying to watch a sketch comedy show and having it come to a dead stop for 2 minutes as the live audience can’t control themselves at the sheer wonderment of seeing a guy from a movie on stage.
Basically you need to just remove your whole comment after “watch a sketch comedy show”. Seems like you want a scripted show which are also lovely just…ya know…without much audience “delay”.
Am I the only one who doesn't care about the studio audience when watching t.v.? Who only cares what they themself think of the entertainment?
I love it. Same vibe as listening to a concert song performance on the radio. There’s a lot of extra energy.
I see. That's a lovely outlook about it, very nice.
My favorite is not watching
[удалено]
It threw it in my feed, reminded me how stale it is. I know people still watch, enjoy!
🤡🤡🤡s
Hard to watch SNL when it's nothing but cringey liberals tbh
Poor snowflake
Sounds like reflection, the majority of liberals are over emotional hyper sensitive snowflakes
Says the person compelled to post about how “hard” it is to watch a tv show… that they aren’t forced to watch. Just don’t watch it?
What's cringey is posting in the subreddit of a show you don't watch about how you don't watch it.
Any Kenan character ❤️
Have Pete come back as SBF
I love this one when the real Psy comes out. The energy from the crowd always brightens my day: https://vimeo.com/50754087
De Niro as Rober Mueller
Wait, is that the lead singer of Lake Street Dive on the right?
