After cracks about Pete Hegseth, Kristi Noem and President Trump’s vendetta against CNN, Michael Che touched on the ongoing controversy at Cornell University and Ryan Murphy’s decision to bring back Glee.

Che first served up a serious note by referencing the sexual assault case at Cornell University and how “obviously we don’t want to make light of anything that happened, but it is a good time to talk about men holding other men accountable.”

As the camera panned toward to a silent Colin Jost, Che said, “Look, we all have that one friend that seems like a nice guy, but they’re definitely not.. It could be someone you’re close to, or someone you work with. Maybe you can’t prove anything. You can just look at him and tell those weird, privileged Ivy League types always got some messed up stuff going on.”

Che then turned to Jost and said, “Is there anything you want to add, Colin?”

“Stop cutting to me,” Jost responded.

Later, cast member Kam Patterson joined the desk to show his enthusiasm for the reboot of Glee. (Ryan Murphy recently said that he “just finished” a Glee reboot script). Che was a bit skeptical that Patterson is a true Gleek, despite Patterson claiming he was eager to find out if Rachel was still on Broadway and if Kurt and Blaine were still together.

But Che wasn’t convinced. “Look, I know you man. You don’t have to say yes to every day that a white writer pitches to you …. Look Kam. I’ve worked here, what, 30, 35 years. I know what this is. Two white writers came up to you in suits, pitched you an idea about Glee, and now you’re out here saying a bunch of names you’ve never heard before, right?”

Patterson admits he hasn’t and feels “pretty bad” that he “just did jazz hands on national television.”

Taylor Swift gave Dakota Johnson some pretty sweet payback for appearing in her “Patient Zero” music video: the mega-star joined the Verity actress during her opening monologue.

Perhaps it was just a birthday present for Johnson, who turns 37 on Sunday. Either way, Swift came in to yuk it up with Johnson, who used her opening moment to wax on about dating musicians.

“I went through two very public, very lame breakups with two very awesome musicians,” Johnson said about what she’s been doing since the last time she hosted SNL. This is her third appearance on the NBC show.

“It’s not my fault, though,” Johnson continued. “Some people leave concerts with merch and I leave concerts with a two and a half year relationship.”

“But I have really good friends,” she continued. “They don’t judge me for dating these men. They’re actually really supportive.”

That’s when Swift joined her on stage. Fans at home went wild.

The Verity star made her SNL debut in season 40.
