Overview
- Aimee Lou Wood will host SNL UK on May 2 with musical guest MEEK, and a new promo shows her suspecting the cast hid fake teeth before they reveal stick-on mustaches and hand her one.
- In the clip, Wood nods to “the whole thing in America with the teeth” and says she wants to wipe the slate clean, then ends the sketch with a hug from the SNL UK cast.
- Her concern traces back to April 2025 when SNL in the U.S. spoofed The White Lotus and cast member Sarah Sherman wore oversized fake teeth for Wood’s character during a fluoride joke.
- Wood called that portrayal “mean and unfunny” and said it punched down, while Sherman later said she felt terrible, reached out, and sent flowers.
- Wood has said she received apologies over the incident, though outlets differ on whether a formal show or network apology happened, and SNL UK’s self-referential promo leans into reconciliation while acknowledging boundaries in satire.
