"SNL" Gets Cocky with Spade
Apparently, Saturday Night Live producers decided to let it all hang out in a recent skit.
When SNL alum David Spade returned to host the Mar. 12 episode of the show, he spoofed Owen Wilson in a skit--right down to the Royal Tenenbaums star's distinctively crooked nose.
In a relatively ballsy move, SNL staffers used a prosthetic penis to approximate Wilson's nose on Spade's face, according to trade publication Broadcasting & Cable which first sniffed out the suspect organ and has screen captures on its Website, broadcastingcable.com.
The skit in question featured a sendup of a celebrity roast of Clint Eastwood, hosted by a humorless Sean Penn (who was, in turn, impersonated by Seth Meyers).
Though a NBC spokesperson denied any knowledge of the creative makeup job, an SNL source eventually confirmed the penile implant.
"It was hilarious," the source told Broadcasting & Cable. "Owen Wilson has a bad nose, but not that bad."
The sneaky nosejob was apparently obvious only to the most dedicated of viewers. Broadcasting & Cable attributed its staff's catch to the large-screen television on which they watched the show.
However, several sharp-eyed members of the Saturday-Night-Live.com forum, a message board dedicated to discussion of the show, claimed they, too, had noticed the suspicious appendage on Spade's face.
"I totally saw that," posted a user by the name of FooboyX. "It's kind of lame."
"I definitely saw it and thought 'is anyone else seeing this?' but everyone was asleep and had no one to discuss with. Ha," posted another user under the handle alexandra the kinda good.
Wilson, who has attributed the unique shape of his nose to breaking it several times, did not comment on SNL's interpretation of his beak.
The FCC confirmed that, as of Monday, it had received no indecency complaints related to the skit.
