‘SNL’: Jacob Elordi Makes Fun of ‘Saltburn’ Scene and ‘The Kissing Booth’ Remarks


Jacob Elordi made his hosting debut on Saturday Night Live, kicking off the show’s first edition of 2024.

The Euphoria actor, 26, kept his monologue brief and entertaining as he mocked his recent performance in the dark comedy film Saltburn.

“It is so exciting to be here hosting the first and, so far, best show in 2024,” he began his monologue.

Elordi joked that people would know him as Felix Catton from Emerald Fennell’s film, but “not from seeing the film, just from seeing the TikToks.”

He appeared in a controversial scene in which Barry Keoghan’s Oliver Quick stands on top of Felix’s grave. “Yeah, I was the one in the grave,” Elordi quipped.

“But if you saw the movie, thank you,” he added. “If you saw the movie with your parents, I’m sorry. And if you saw the movie with your girlfriend, you’re welcome.”

In another segment of the speech, he took aim at his The Kissing Booth remarks, which made news two months ago.

Cast member Sarah Sherman took questions from the crowd and stated that she believed his video was “absolutely gross.”

When he said Saltburn isn’t for everyone, she asked, “What the hell is a Saltburn? I’m talking about The Kissing Booth. Two people kissing on the mouth… ew!”

And the audience exploded into cheers and laughter.

In an interview with GQ in November, Elordi described the Netflix movie series as “ridiculous,” adding they are “not universal.” “They are an escape.”
