Meryl Streep surprised everyone with her debut on 'SNL50', playing Kate McKinnon's mom and flirting with Pedro Pascal! Don't miss this epic moment!

Meryl Streep, the queen of Hollywood, officially made her much-anticipated debut on "Saturday Night Live" during the show's 50th anniversary special. Fans have been wondering when this legendary actress would finally grace the SNL stage, and she delivered in a sketch that was out of this world! Streep brought her A-game, stepping into the role of Kate McKinnon's mom in a sketch titled "Close Encounters" alongside an all-star lineup, including Jon Hamm, Woody Harrelson, and Pedro Pascal. Talk about a power-packed reputation!

In this comedic parody, Streep manages to blend her Oscar-winning skills with the ridiculousness that only SNL can muster. Kate McKinnon's quirky character, Miss Rafferty, makes a return as she recounts alien abduction stories, and oh boy, does she give the show a humorous twist with Streep by her side! While aliens may not actually exist, the chemistry between Streep and McKinnon surely had the audience wondering if extraterrestrials were laughing along with them.

But wait, it gets better! During one particularly hilarious moment, the icon herself flirted with none other than Pedro Pascal. Viewers were left in stitches as Streep flirted effortlessly, proving that even the best of us can sometimes fall under the spell of the charming star. Who would’ve thought the legendary actress had such comedic chops? With a single raised eyebrow, Meryl made sure she was not only there to play a part but also to have a bit of fun!

As the crowd roared on, Streep also had a cheeky moment where she flipped off Will Ferrell while sitting next to fellow SNL alum Martin Short. It was a testament to her lighthearted spirit and willingness to join in on the fun of live comedy. It seems Meryl Streep isn't just Hollywood royalty but also a hilarious treasure to behold! Did you know that she has been nominated for a record 21 Academy Awards? But let’s be honest, it's her comedic talent that shines just as bright as her dramatic acting skills.

In addition to her recent SNL debut, Meryl Streep holds the unique honor of being one of the most versatile actresses in history. With roles ranging from a distraught mother in "Kramer vs. Kramer" to the powerful and whimsical Miranda Priestly in "The Devil Wears Prada," Streep has shown audiences that she can do it all! And if this appearance is any indication of her comedic prowess, we can’t wait to see what she does next!
