Los Angeles, April 16 (NationPress) Actress Aimee Lou Wood, renowned for her role in The White Lotus, has disclosed that comedian Sarah Sherman sent her a lovely bouquet as a peace gesture following an unflattering depiction of her on the latest episode of Saturday Night Live. This episode included a parody of The White Lotus.
Wood took to her Instagram Stories to express her gratitude, posting a photo of the vibrant flower arrangement and stating, “Thank you for the beautiful flowers, Sarah Sherman.”
According to reports from Variety, the day after the SNL parody aired, Wood expressed her dissatisfaction on social media regarding the way the late-night show portrayed her character, Chelsea, in a mocking manner.
She wrote, “Such a shame because I had such a fantastic time watching it a couple of weeks ago. Yes, it’s all in good fun, but there must be a more clever, nuanced, and less cheap way to do it?”
The sketch, titled The White POTUS, primarily targeted Donald Trump and his associates amidst the turmoil in the global economy. It featured James Austin Johnson as the president, Chloe Fineman as Melania Trump, Mikey Day as Donald Trump Jr., and Jon Hamm as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Wood’s character Chelsea was the sole representation from The White Lotus in the pre-recorded segment. In a humorous moment, Hamm’s RFK, disguised as Walton Goggins' Rick, exclaimed, “I’ve been having these wild ideas, like what if we removed all the fluoride from the drinking water? What effect would that have on people's teeth?”
The camera then transitioned to Sherman’s Chelsea, who sported an exaggerated accent and oversized fake teeth.
