SNL Brilliantly Parodies 'The White Lotus' With 'Black Lotus' - The Daily Beast

Between Aubrey Plaza’s hosting gig and Chloe Fineman’s dead-on Jennifer Coolidge impression, a White Lotus parody seemed inevitable on this week’s Saturday Night Live.

The pre-taped sketch began with Tanya checking into the hotel and telling Kenan Thomson’s concierge, “Oh, gosh, I forgot my credit card.

As the announcer put it, “Coming soon to HBO, Black Lotus.

The hotel’s staff similarly shut down the Michael Imperioli-esque character’s attempt to give “these hoes” a spare key to his room and warned Sarah Sherman’s version of Haley Lu Richardson’s Portia that she was definitely going to get murdered by the mysterious British stranger she just met.

And instead of playing her character Harper, Plaza took on the role of the hotel’s unhinged Latina bartender who put the dejected Albie in his place for trying to sleep with the same Italian prostitute as his father.

“Welcome to Black Lotus, bitch,” Thompson concluded.
