Chris Kattan Says Life Changed Forever After ‘SNL’ Sketch

Chris Kattan says one 2001 skit on “Saturday Night Live” changed his life forever. In the skit, a spoof of “The Golden Girls,” Kattan choked on cheesecake and threw himself backward, hitting the ground hard. Kattan knew right away the injury was something serious but said he kept it to himself because he feared the repercussions for his career. “I went backward on my chair to sell it and I really put myself into the character,” he told Inside Edition. #InsideEdition

I got addicted to pain pills after a kidney stone surgery… they took over my life and I was poor without the ability to afford it. I can’t imagine working on a show like SNL where presumably not only could he afford it, but I would guess he was introduced people who could always get them for him… *So from his perspective, what incentive was there to ever quit or to ever seek help???* It’s easy to look down on people and impossible to know what they’re actually going through.

If President does it, it is NOT ILLEGAL Long-term use of painkillers can lead to physical dependence.

[@blondzruleall5443]

Wow, thank you Chris for being honest.

[@ashleyluttrell5704]

Chris Kattan was my absolute favorite actor when I was young he cracked me up ☺️ I had no idea this had happened to him though it’s so sad. Your still my guy, Kattan!

[@dolf5039]

Find a way to stay well... you made so many of us laugh. You’ve been a genius ... thank you so much.

[@bunnysidhu5064]

Night at Rocksberry was iconic. He is such a great actor, God bless him. When I saw the movie I was so glad that I did, just mind blown with the depths of the characters and the love they oozed. Keep Rocking Mate!!

[@dalethelander3781]

Unfortunately, the movie tanked. After the disappointing box office, there was one Butabi Brothers sketch, then Lorne Michaels pulled the characters from the show. He did that with other characters when their movies tanked. Julia Sweeny's "Pat," Molly Shannon's "Mary Catherine Gallegher," Tim Meadows' "The Ladies' Man," etc.

[@jbsatxillinois7063]

Glad he’s doing well , hope he makes some kinda of return ! His characters were really funny

[@stephaniemc9948]

He’s one of my favorites from SNL. ❤️

[@stopcheatingconsumers9779]

Man, I did not know. You can see even now around his shoulders. Hope he's not in pain.

[@omegaweapon116]

Night at the Roxbury was one of the few good movies based on an SNL sketch.... Might be the only one

[@tonyoneal5269]

He was one of my favorites from that cast.

[@destinyborrego4339]

This man is legendary. I absolutely love all his work. I hope he’s doing better these days.

[@lede1810]

I always wondered why we weren't seeing him anymore. I'm so sorry for all the troubles he had to live through. He was amazing 👌

[@rogeliomelgar5219]

He was so funny I really missed him.

[@kennethwilliams7731]

Chris was much more talented than any of the current lame cast members of today.Hope he's doing well.

[@tydish]

To me he was one of the funniest cast members at the time. His sketch portraying Steve Irwin was hilarious.

[@lawnman3638]

@Bryce Webb The 90s SNL was loaded with talent and Chris Farley was one of the greats but imo not the greatest. Maybe if he had more time to shine.

[@Washadamoak]

@Bryce Webb This is pretty funny kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ2Xf4yppb9_qbc

KENNETH WILLIAMS SNL sucks. Especially since they’ve gone political

[@zzzcocopepe]

@Bryce Webb also, SO MUCH FOR THE LOVING RIGHT.

[@MayBeMe...]

This is heartbreaking. Wishing Chris a happy life beyond ALL of the pain he has endured...His comedy genius is awesome and very much appreciated. ♥♥♥

[@mhassouneh]

I’ve always loved him and his performances.. still do 😇

[@harveydodd8803]

All those years of bobbing his head to “Baby Don’t Hurt Me” loosened his neck muscles up for that fall.

[@tammiesue4196]

I absolutely loved his SNL characters and A Night at the Roxbury. He came to Corpus Christi TX a little while back and I wanted to see him SO BADLY❤️❤️❤️. I wasn’t able to get a ticket🥺. I really do hope to see him perform someday!!!

[@mishaa7263]

watching Chris Kattan get arrested makes me really uncomfortable

[@Saturnia2014]

Why?

[@pandapanda8354]

What a great comedian! I love you Chris Kattan! So glad he survived that horrible injury.

[@DeviantMotives]

That’s so sad. Trying to do his best acting and it ruins his life 😢

[@MelinaAcosta569]

It is so easy to judge without knowing what that person is going through. I hope he recovers completely ❤

[@johnguillen68]

When I saw him in Dancing with the Stars and saw how stiff he was and not himself, I googled him to find out what happened and was shocked. I love watching him in all his movies and skits with SNL.

[@chelsbuggg90]

I love Chris Kattan! He is one of my all time favorite SNL members. I’m so sad this happened to him.
