When Amy Poehler and Tina Fey opened up their audience Q&A for SNL‘s 50th anniversary special, we didn’t see that Ryan Reynolds moment coming.
The comedians threw to the star-studded during the segment, which invited stars including Cher, Quinta Brunson, Bad Bunny, Keith Richards, Jon Hamm, and many more to ask the pair questions about SNL50.
When Reynolds, sitting beside his wife Blake Lively, stood up to ask something, around 1:50 in the clip above, things got awkward.
“Ryan, how’s it going?” asked Fey and Poehler.
“Great! Why, what have you heard?” responded Reynolds.
Considering the highly publicised mess that is Lively’s ongoing legal battle with It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni, it seemed a pretty risky move for SNL to hint at going there — especially considering the serious allegations within the lawsuit. And the comments online are thinking along the same lines.
