Kamala Harris Surprises on ‘SNL’ as Maya Rudolph’s Mirror Image Before Election

Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris made a surprise appearance on ‌‘Saturday Night Live’ to give herself a pep talk just days before the U.S. presidential election.

Harris joined actress Maya Rudolph, who was impersonating her, during the show’s cold open. The two appeared as “mirror images” of each other.

Before the show, Harris was supposed to be in Detroit, Michigan, but her campaign announced her unexpected stop in New York City.

The final episode before Tuesday’s election kicked off with a parody of CNN, then shifted to a Trump rally featuring Austin Johnson as the former president.

The skit included a conversation with Rudolph as Harris, Dana Carvey as President Joe Biden, Jim Gaffigan as vice presidential pick Tim Walz, and Andy Samberg as Dough Emhoff.

Rudolph took a moment to reflect before her last campaign speech, looking into the mirror at the real Harris. “I just wish I could talk to someone who’s been in my shoes,” she said, referencing being “a black South Asian woman running for president, preferably from the Bay Area.”

The two then shared a pep talk, resolving to “end the dram-ala” and “keep Kamala and carry on-a-la.”

John Mulaney hosted the show for the sixth time, with musical guest Chappell Roan. Virginia Senator Tim Kaine also made a surprise appearance in a skit where a contestant couldn’t remember who he was.

Many U.S. politicians have guest-starred on the show, including Harris’ Republican opponent Donald Trump, who hosted in 2015. Hillary Clinton appeared on the show during her 2008 and 2016 campaigns, alongside impersonator Amy Poehler.

The first sitting president to appear on ‘SNL’ was Gerald Ford in April 1976.
