Kamala Harris wasn’t the only name to trend on Tuesday after Joe Biden announced his running mate pick. During the former vice president’s announcement, heads also turned to Maya Rudolph, who played Harris on Saturday Night Live.
“That’s spicy,” Rudolph told Entertainment Weekly about the possibility of reprising her Emmy-nominated role. Watch a clip of Rudolph as Harris below.
NBC News White House correspondent Geoff Benett reacted to Biden’s announcement, tweeting that Tuesday was a “big day for Maya Rudolph.” Also calling out the Bridesmaids and The Good Place actress’ name amid the news was George Takei, NBC News’ Kasie Hunt, Jessie Tyler Ferguson, Roxane Gay and Matthew Cherry. The official SNL twitter account even reacted to Biden’s announcement by sharing a Gif of the actress playing the California official.
Late in July, Rudolph nabbed three Emmy nominations, including one for her Kamala Harris impression on SNL.
