The best intro, by the way, I ever saw of an SNL host of a musical guest was Sir Patrick Stewart. Sir Patrick Stewart was introducing the musical guest, and this is how he did it. He went, "Ladies and gentleman, Salt... N-PEPAAA!", like he was surprised by Pepa.
Like minutes before, they'd been like, "We can't find Pepa anywhere!" And he's like, "If we must go on with Salt alone, we will go on with Salt alone!". And they're like, "Three, two, one," and Pepa bursts through the door and he's like, "Ladies and gentlemen, Salt - and WHAT'S THIS - PEPAAAA!!"
It was the best time. It was an innocent time, you know?
