Kenan Thompson Confused By Morgan Wallen's Sudden 'SNL' Exit
HuffPost
"I thought maybe he had to go to the potty or something," the actor told EW.
Kenan Thompson admits he’s still confused by country singer Morgan Wallen’s sudden departure from the “Saturday Night Live” stage during the show’s closing moments this weekend.
Wallen was standing next to host Mikey Madison during the goodbyes when he said something to her before walking off the stage straight toward the camera.
A short time later, Wallen made a post to Instagram that showed a private jet with the caption, “Get me to God’s country.”
Thompson, the longest-tenured cast member in the show’s 50-year history, told Entertainment Weekly he has no clue why Wallen made the abrupt exit.
“I don’t know what goes through people’s minds when they decide to do stuff like that,” Thompson said. “I don’t know if he understood the assignment or not, or if he was really feeling a certain kind of way.”
