SNL’s Roast of Meghan Markle: Comedy or Controversy?
The Wales Family's 2023 Christmas Card has caused quite a stir among Royal fans.
The picture-perfect Prince and Princess of Wales, alongside their adorable trio, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, have captured the hearts of many.
However, SNL's Colin Jost couldn't resist pointing out a questionable detail in the black and white card, turning it into a punchline at Meghan Markle's expense.
Jost humorously quipped that the Christmas photo released by the Royal Family featured a bad Photoshop job where Prince Louis' finger appeared to be missing.
He added, “This is sweet.
Meghan Markle said she has a finger they can use if they need it.”
Ouch!
The joke was accompanied by a pixelated picture of Meghan seemingly making an offensive gesture with her middle finger, hilariously juxtaposed with the Wales Christmas Card.
This isn't the first time Meghan and Harry have been the target of SNL's jokes.
Earlier this year, the couple faced mockery over their attendance at King Charles' coronation.
Comedian Michael Shee playfully portrayed Meghan as being offered £15 an hour to attend the coronation, accompanied by a cheeky image of her dressed in a maid's outfit.
SNL seems to have no reservations when it comes to poking fun at the Duchess of Sussex.
But SNL isn't the only one taking aim at Meghan and Harry.
Animated satire shows like South Park and even Family Guy have joined the party.
South Park mocked the couple's alleged demands for privacy, while Family Guy suggested that their multi-million dollar deal with Netflix is a result of their pursuit of influence, one of the few ways they can earn money post-royalty.
The question arises: should Meghan Markle be offended or take it all in stride?
Comedy has a long history of pushing boundaries and making light of even the most sensitive subjects.
However, Meghan has been a frequent target, and this latest roast on SNL adds another layer to the ongoing saga of the Sussexes in the spotlight.
As we dissect the comedic jabs and controversies surrounding Meghan Markle, it's important to remember that humor often walks a fine line between satire and offense.
The royal family, SNL, South Park, and even Family Guy have all contributed to the narrative, turning Meghan and Harry into recurring characters in their comedic repertoire.
In conclusion, the SNL roast is just another chapter in the book of Meghan Markle's journey through the world of public scrutiny.
As the laughter echoes and the controversies continue, one can't help but wonder: will Meghan find a way to laugh along, or will the jokes become an unwelcome backdrop to her life post-royalty?
