The fact that they're all good singers as well shows how good the SNL casting is!

Kudos to the costume designers for this whole skit.

Kristen Wiig gives great faces in this sketch, and the way Gerard Butler whispers that one line is hilarious :D

This dress is better than the one in the actual movie

[@Bts-nd8hv]

right

[@icantfindaname4207]

true ;-;

[@bochenggu1439]

Queen of the World I seriously hope you're joking or you must have very questionable taste in fashion. The dress here looks over the top and tacky with all the superfluous embellishments and shiny material. It looks more like a cheap Halloween costume, which works for a parody show like this one. The movie dress looks so much more elegant and legit as a realistic dress you can wear to a real ball.

[@icantfindaname4207]

Bocheng Gu lol you better be joking the movie dress looks like cheap cosplay, the movie's dress is too plain and style-wise is more horrible than the original

[@orange_leaf4913]

honestly i was very very very little disappointed but i easily brushed it off about the dress's top part cuz i really like the original movie one and was really really counting on the dress to be just to-die-for-drop-dead-gorgeous. the top part of the dress I think it should be more like this cdn.emptykingdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/artwork_images_618_281193_mark-ryden.jpg

"Have fun in your ass castle." That. That is a phrase that was spoken. Out load. For millions of people to hear. I love this country.

[@videohistory722]

The follow-up is what sells it. "How did she know we call it an ass castle?"

"Out load"?

Wow! That has to be a crazy coincidence!! 😂 Thanks for noticing that!

When Belle's costume here is a thousand better than the one in the live action movie. So i left this comment only to find out everyone was already talkin about it.

[@TheDibbet]

You really think? It looks like a cheap prom dress with way too much glitter and gold.

[@owenbatalla7306]

no i think the live action is better this one looks cheap

Kristen looks perfect for every role :) She's adorable :)

[@fredgwynn8933]

Kristin Wiig is so brilliant. she ONLY RAISES HER EYEBROWS at 1:24 and the laugh that comes from me is so loud

[@blurryeyes316]

This is the live action that I want to see.

[@Pocketpeas]

Dropped the voice at 1:20 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@TimLaplaca]

One of my favorite SNL sketches, they're all perfect. They can even sing well!

[@McLeod2022]

How did I never see this before??? This is one of the best skits with amazing costume design and all perfectly done.

[@bernieburb9742]

i love her first singing line ... her voice !!!

[@MissAgentPerry]

I literally rewatch this just to hear her sing that first line :')

[@tinob.4375]

HAAHAHAAH,same here.

[@LadySoile]

Me too. Gosh she's incredible.

[@heavenlyheartbeat]

I miss SNL's more light-hearted skits.When you could forget the craziness in the world and just laugh.

[@Shzl47]

This aired in 2009 according to the description. SNL was definitely doing political sketches back then.

[@SnowDaulphin]

They seem pretty consistent with this. Lately the Weekend Update team and cold opens spend a lot of breadth on ragging on Trump.

[@conniedavis3553]

If you hear their interviews SO DO THEY. No one at ALL in the world can wait to going back to mostly just plain comedy.

[@robertjohnson8250]

Well, it didn't really help matters that Trump always made himself such an easy target... so I'm sure it will go back to being a bit more "light-hearted" now that he's gone

[@themarkofthought1901]

Alec ruined it...and now they can’t even make fun of his psychotic wife

[@Promses2Keep]

This skit had SO many unexpected zingers... "Ohhh my darling...I can _hardly_ wait for *your* transformation..." And he said that with SUCH sincerity and longing...

"I'm only attracted to other candelabras"--wasn't he really into feather dusters? "Beauty is in the eye of the candleholder"

[@Excile00]

The only SNL sketch that actually made me laugh and the way he whispers a big ass is hilarious

[@darleneyarusinsky251]

This version was even better than the original ! Love the plot twist it has me laughing throughout the whole skit !!! Gerard as the beast nailed it and his singing voice was gorgeous ! He needs too do more comedy he is hysterical especially when he calls her the beast so funny !!!!!!

[@funkyfiss]

Better costumes than the live action. And more chemistry between the actors.
