Step aside, Melissa McCarthy, Sean Spicer wants to go on “Saturday Night Live.”
The former White House press secretary is “angling” to get on the NBC comedy show where
, according to a report Thursday.
“He asked someone he knows that is close to a cast member to help him,” a source told Us Weekly. “Yes, he criticized ‘SNL’ before, but he’s changed his tune. He wants to make a cameo!”
Spicer, who resigned from the White House post last month, hasn’t been a fan of “SNL” and McCarthy’s “Spicy” performances, calling them “mean.”
“I’m a prankster, I like a good joke,” he told Sean Hannity during a Fox News interview after his July 21 resignation. “I think when it’s funny, it’s funny. Sometimes it goes from funny to mean. There’s a lot of it that was over the line. It wasn’t funny. It was stupid or silly or malicious.”
But a source close to Spicer told Page Six it couldn’t be further from the truth.
“He’s looking for more serious projects,” the source said.
