Ego Nwodim on Her Short-Lived Basketball Career and Her Lisa from Temecula SNL Sketch | Tonight Show

[@tibaby2010]

I have watched the Lisa from Temecula sketch soooo many times, lol. “You betta cook my meat!!” 😂😂

[@dzarif7]

Cook my meat! 😂

[@trey3rob]

IT SOOOOOOOO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!

[@erikaowens1157]

HAHAHAHAHAHA I FREAKIN DIE EVERY TIME I WATCH IT!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@erikaowens1157]

“ Antonio Banderas over here, trying to get my butt!” HAHAHAHAHAHA

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

​@@erikaowens1157"...while he got Cujo living in the basement!"

[@itsmekeylolo8147]

Lisa from Temecula had me on the floor crying laughing!! It’s up there with the Debbie Downer - Disney World sketch 🤣🙌🏾

[@everythingdana9322]

Yasssssssss

[@maine2132]

I was thinking the same thing! Lol

[@armandoucles5346]

Lisa from Temecula is already an SNL ICON!!! I never laughed so hard I almost peed my pants.

[@MaxineShaw_84]

That's the best comparison 😂🎯 and what a STUNNER. 🤩

[@doublefeature]

yes some of the best breaking ever. altho i do love when Hader broke as Stefan.

[@michaelabojan4172]

Ego immediately calling him out for not speaking to her to until she was on his show is EVERYTHING😂🙌

[@tomhoefner3050]

I think she was joking.

[@snicholson8884]

​@@tomhoefner3050 I don't think so. Seeing as he quickly moved on from that. But it's okay. Because jimmy probably has so many people trying to get something from him. So it's best to just move quickly and not make eye contact.

[@shawnperico7221]

Shits crazy right?

[@fundifferent1]

I like how people can casually do that in a light hearted way. Everything I say sounds serious!

[@evangolding5520]

Why? Cuz she's black? Cook my meat... Toss my salad... Y'all need to do better...

[@ahmedsirour]

Ego is straight up hilarious, and that's well before the Lisa from Temecula bit. Any sketch where she's one of the main characters, she typically knocks out with her range, and she first had me cracking up playing Dionne Warwick, or when she played an African mother (authentic Nigerian accent, of course) alongside Daniel Kaluuya as the father. Plus, can we talk about how gorgeous she is? 😉

[@ronbarton7799]

Yes her work on the show is underrated. She's up there with Gilda Radner, Maya Rudolph, Cecily Strong ,Will Ferrell

[@22221mm]

💯 Why is she not invited for more interviews! She's absolutely incredible. Way funnier than Jimmy Fallon ever was.

[@user-zy5dp8fl8n]

Oh he tryina get some butt tonight!

[@dosvecesjaime]

I mean those legs on top of it all. She’s so gorgeous it’s almost rude.

[@rachelgilbert3164]

I still have “wile up in my socks” from the City on Lockdown stuck in my head every once in a while! 😂

[@eduardoarmenta9232]

Ego is killing it right now, every time she's leading a sketch I know is gonna be great.

[@westindian10]

Ummm....I guess....

[@henrytawnn8694]

Even when Ego pops in for a second, she owns sketches, like the new Traffic Altercation sketch. I showed that to my dad, and he kept quoting from it for hours.

[@highnoon9333]

Absolutely.

[@MissTXTee]

The Lisa in Temecula skit gets me EVERY TIME. Her "Don't think I'm giving up the butt tonight" line is so crass, but HILARIOUS!

[@cmel7841]

seriously the fact that EVERYONE broke in that sketch was the BEST. It was for sure one of the best of the season.

[@amy2561]

I see Ego….I click. She is AWESOME!!

[@kellifranklin9872]

I still watch Lisa from Temecula is absolutely hilarious! Her and Pedro Pascal and Bowen Yang were amazing and so funny!

[@KCNwokoye]

Gorgeous Ego. Love her. So talented and charming. Delightful communicator.

[@jwilliamcosby]

Ego's skin - swoon!! ❤🥰😍

[@HousnaA]

Those legs!

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Love Lisa from Temecula it one of my favorite sketch this season on SNL its was hilarious 😂.

[@jonirnmomba4130]

This woman single handedly quenched my Sudeikis naughty punishing teacher thirst… and I am HERE FOR HER.

[@DiamondEubanks]

Thisssss! I've watched that sketch an unhealthy amount of times 🤦🏾‍♀️😂

[@doublefeature]

just really glad they talked about THAT sketch. i watched it like 20 times, it's so good. don't think i'm giving up the butt tonight!!

[@Anthonyjt12]

Ballet 10 years. It shows in her grace.

[@dzarif7]

LOVED the lisa from temecula skit! 😂😂It’s my favorite one yet

[@MrTresBN]

B-more represent!! Love that Ego is getting her props and flowers. She's at the cusp. Incredibly talented performer.

[@feodilla]

Ego Nwodim is amazing. She has a great sketch with Jason Sudeikis and Loco is brilliant. Dionne Warwic with Dionne Warwic is a must seen.

[@joncumber2020]

Finally some recognition. Her ‘parent-teacher’ sketch with Sedekis is firmly placed in the SNL Hall of Fame.

[@wishingonthemoon1]

“I used to order my steak well done…got bullied out of that…” 😂

[@trentkesler7260]

She is GORGEOUS and a comedic genius.

[@ChipCain]

What a great addition she’s been! Outstanding talent.

[@lisatalev]

Love her so much! So beautiful, funny, talented and entertaining! One of my favorite cast members since she started.

[@ArgChica]

Omg all I see now is her cutting her steak and Pedro laughing 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Fabulously funny

[@rkms5606]

Cut my meat!😂

[@cloutclaudiuscharles2597]

Ego has range & I think that’s what makes her stand out from the rest of the new cast, she can be physical and also deliver her lines funny no matter the type of character

[@jasonchristopher5316]

Ego leaves me wheezing damn near every time. Lisa from Temecula is one of the funniest sketches in recent years.

[@treblenote2]

It's great to see her 'outside' of a character, 'Lisa from Temecula' was SOO funnie! LMAO !! She did a fantastic job in that skit!!!!

[@wolfie8012]

Ego is drop dead gorgeous 😍😍🥰

[@RavenclawNimbus]

She’s so beautiful! She’s one of my favorites of the 2016+ cast!

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Ego is so hilarious, and talented love her so happy to see getting the recognition she deserves😍👏🏽 🎉.

[@Mustangblack187]

🖤

[@robertnobles8189]

I can’t say enough about Eggyboom. Love her!

[@CriticalLion275]

Ego is really very funny, She really has perfect timing In sketches

[@Enzo87325]

I’m in love with this woman !

[@DogGoneDayz]

Lisa from Temecula was the best bit!! Love Ego!

[@loveinthematrix]

What a freaking ray of sunshine. A beautiful human being.

[@cmfsobl]

Ego is one of my favorites!

[@boblowney]

Lisa from Temecula and Debbie Downer does Disney are two of the best skits. Great that Jimmy and Ego are talking about it.

[@isisatlantis3168]

She looks so good, Flawless. Such a great talent.

[@sharonshin4574]

Great interview with Ego!! ❤️😎She is hilarious on SNL.

[@MubinNoor]

Hands down one of my favorite cast members. 😌

[@charlesbattee1411]

She's absolutely gorgeous 🥰

[@Match143]

I only know her as Entree P. Neur, where my Comedy Bang Bang fans at??? But that sketch was so incredibly hilarious, even with Pedro breaking non-stop.

[@charlesvann2683]

Of course her and Carl tart are the best

[@SystemFailing]

SNL is getting the CBB bump!

[@PsychicOracle]

Lisa from Temecula. Edith Puthy. And, Levanka. Legends, all. 👑

[@janissanders1156]

So happy to see Ego! ❤❤❤

[@LynneJordan11]

It's good to hear from her. she is really showing up and showing out. Love this!

[@TheTaurean]

Anytime she’s on camera I’m in tears! 🤣

[@ellierose6]

Ego's few seconds in the Waffle House last time stole the entire sketch.

[@brynneholt1990]

Loved it!

[@armandoucles5346]

When she fell of the counter halfway through I lost it 🤣🤣🤣

[@mayastill258]

Lisa from Temecula “oh he trying to get some BUTT” 😂😂😂 idk that line has me laughing so hard

[@donniee.2238]

I'm confused. In my mind she is well recognized and famous, but after looking at these comments I am realizing o believe I've only seen her on SNL KZbin clips I've seen... but she is sooooo good!

[@tyresebrinson8584]

The steak skit, the home by my self during COVID skit and the skit with Daniel K. About immigrant family need for their kids to do well. Each skit she’s amazing. I want her on the Black Lady sketch show

[@tunzlunz]

Omg Ego is from Baltimore! Omg I’m such a proud Baltimorean right now

[@tingting35]

Are we gonna ignore that she was a ballerina for ten years?

[@Paulnikon]

So gorgeous.

[@TravlingNow]

Huge Ego fan!

[@donnadunaway5670]

I loved her in this sketch!!!! I’ve shared it multiple times because it made me lol!

[@hr6334]

Love her so much ❤ she is so talented!!

[@hristopopov7345]

Wow, she's gorgeous as well, besides hilarious

[@Ktcsr17]

I grew up in Temecula and it was such a small city back then. It blew my mind it was used as part of an snl sketch 😂😂😂

[@chanelhopeful5336]

Absolutely love her ❤❤❤

[@deptofcarstereorepair]

I love Ego!! "Lisa from Temecula" was off the rails right from the beginning when Molly didn't have a glass to toast with, all the way up to the end when Bowen was gesturing to end already. One of the funniest sketches ever! along with her "Daytime Show" w Daniel Craig

[@shesheshe9389]

Lisa from Temecual was hilarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrIOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS AND when she was a sub teaching at that STEM school.."Nobody"....bust me up...

[@SleeplessInSeattle-24]

Ego is gorgeous and so talented

[@karoltowns8384]

When she plays Dionne Warwick, rolling, just rolling😂😂😂😂

[@shaungray672]

I am SO glad SNL has been using Ego more in the past 2 years. Ego is my favorite cast member outside of Keenan. Easily one of the more underrated actors on the show! Glad she is starting to shine!!!

[@michaeleverett2597]

She is SO beautiful!!

[@theronaldophotography4971]

I fell from my chair laughing so hard at one of Ego's sketches in SNL..She is a treasure on that show! Damn Hilarious.

[@zOMBieAkACris]

I honestly think Lisa from Temecula could be the next SNL movie.

[@JosChaMab]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE Ego! So freaking beautiful and hilarious!

[@Kid_Ying]

I've religiously watched SNL since I was like 10 in the mid nineties, and Lisa From Temecula is absolutely hands-down one of the top ten sketches from the show. Also love that Ego is a fellow Baltimoron.

[@MrAntd1]

I love her! She is really good and hilarious.

[@traceydavis4774]

Love Ego. Love Jimmy being salty and fake laughing after Ego called him on his crap from the jump!
