SNL: Dionne Warwick Makes Surprise Appearance

Since Ego Nwodim has been a fixture on Saturday Night Live, she’s often parodied the legendary Dionne Warwick as the character hosted a fictional talk show. The sketches became so well known, Warwick herself even commented on it through her then-new Twitter account. Fast forward a year and out of the blue, Warwick herself pops up during Nwodim’s first Warwick sketch of this season.

“Thank you, @nbcsnl. That young lady’s impression of me was very good and who knew @BrittaniWarrick had so many jobs?” Warwick tweeted last December. In a follow-up tweet, Warwick told Nwodim that she was a star.

This was a hilarious birthday gift. Thank you, @nbcsnl. That young lady’s impression of me was very good and who knew @BrittaniWarrick had so many jobs? 😂❤️ https://t.co/CClR1Kly6C
