Brand new Saturday Night Live cast member Jenny Slate swore during her debut sketch for the comedy show’s fall season premiere. While the show was hosted by Meghan Fox, the Jenny Slate slip is getting all the attention—for the newbie accidentally dropped the F-bomb during her ‘Frickin Bikers’ skit with Kristen Wiig.
Apparently, this is only the third time ever that an SNL cast member has said the F-word, or cursed in any way, on the SNL stage! Slate definitely didn’t intend to swear though—you can see from they way she puffed up cheeks afterwards.
