Bill Burr tells girls to ‘whore it up a little’ in controversial post-election SNL monologue | EUROtoday

Bill Burr is dealing with criticism from viewers for jokes he made about girls in his opening monologue on Saturday Night Live’s post-election present.

Burr hosted Saturday’s (November 9) episode of the long-running NBC sketch collection days after Donald Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris within the 2024 presidential election.

“All right ladies, you’re 0 and 2 on this guy,” Burr mentioned, referring to Trump’s victories over Hillary Clinton (in 2016) and Harris. “But you learn more from your losses than your wins. Let’s get into the game tape.”

“Ladies, enough with the pantsuit. OK? It’s not working! Stop trying to have respect for yourselves,” he joked.

“You don’t win the office on policy; you gotta whore it up a little! I’m not saying go full Hooters,” he mentioned. “But find the happy medium between Applebee’s and your dad didn’t stick around. All right? You all know how to get a free drink.”

Burr continued: “I do know quite a lot of ugly girls – I imply feminists – don’t need to hear this message. But simply tease ‘em a little bit! Make a farmer feel like he has a shot. Swing a state over a little bit!”

On Twitter/X, SNL fans were quick to call the comedian out over his choice of jokes.

“Bill burr calling feminists ‘ugly women’ on the primary snl after the election has radicalized me in a degree i couldn’t presumably comprehend when i believed i had been radicalized to the very best diploma earlier this week,” one particular person wrote.

Another added: “bill burr just said on saturday night live that women need to ‘w**** it up’ to win the white house and then proceeded to tell a classic ‘feminists are ugly’ joke.

“guess we ARE going back.”

A 3rd added: “Bill Burr calling feminists ‘ugly’ and blaming Asians for spreading diseases isn’t funny.”

Elsewhere in his monologue, Burr joked about getting over the flu not too long ago. “Whenever you have the flu, like Covid, you know you always lay in bed. You try to figure out who gave it to you, just going through this Rolodex of people that coughed on you, sniffled near you, walked by an Asian or something.”

A 2021 examine discovered that anti-Asian hate speech surged by 1,662 % through the pandemic as conspiracy theories in regards to the virus’ origin have been rife.

At the start of Saturday’s episode, the complete SNL solid sarcastically praised Trump’s victory and debuted a brand new model of the previous president – “hot, jacked Trump” – to keep away from being placed on his “enemies list.”

Saturday Night Live airs on NBC on Saturdays at 11:30pm EST and on Peacock the next day.
