Saturday Night Live Season 50 Premiere: Ashley Padilla playing Joann from JOANN Fabric and Crafts
Saturday Night Live Season 50 premiered its latest episode with many entertaining performances, hosted by Oscar-winning actress Mikey Madison. The show featured various segments featuring artists, including Marcello Hernández, Bowen Yang, Joe Jonas, and more.
One of the segments featured Ashley Padilla as Joann from JOANN Fabrics and Crafts. She was there to announce her store closure, which made her very sad.
"I wish I were here under better circumstances. I'm so sorry," she said.
As the host told her it was okay, she replied:
"It's not okay closing a Joann's in sub-urbs is like closing a planned parenthood in a college town. Women will die."
Further in the show, Joann mentioned that she didn't know where they went "wrong" since Joann had everything. Her comedy continued as she noted that every cashier at Joann's was a retired nurse whose description was quite descriptive.
"Last year was our best year yet. We made $4,000," Joann revealed.
She recalled being the boss for the past 80 years, and she had never stopped working. She then stated her working schedule. It included checking that they always had Halloween stuff, sweeping the dust into a pile and spreading it back, power sniffing a permanent marker, and driving back home.
Witnessing her performance, fans couldn't stop laughing as they took to the social media platform X to applaud her performance. Some fans also commented about the "permanent marker sniffing" thing.
