Live from Studio 8H, it’s Woody Harrelson!
The Champions actor, 61, hosted Saturday Night Live for the fifth time over the weekend, which gave him exclusive access to the series’ iconic Five-Timers Club.
During his opening monologue, Harrelson noted the achievement and held out his arms to receive a commemorative jacket that prior SNL hosts have been bestowed with for the feat, only to receive nothing. “No jacket? Okay,” he said, shrugging, before later holding his arms out once more during the end of his monologue in hopes of receiving the attire piece. “Still no jacket? Okay, well, we got a great show for you tonight,” he quipped.
But, at the end of the show, Harrelson was presented with the coveted item by Scarlett Johansson, a Five-Timers Club member herself. “I got you, baby!” the actress said as she handed Harrelson the jacket.
Harrelson joined an exclusive list of other stars part of SNL’s iconic Five-Timers Club — including John Mulaney, Paul Rudd and Melissa McCarthy, to name a few.
