An amazing 'SNL' Weekend Update sits for an interview with the Titanic iceberg

Bowen Yang didn't get his "gay Passover bunny" sketch, but this is pretty hilarious too.

Saturday Night Live Weekend Update has traditionally been home to bizarre and off-the-wall interviews, but this one... this one is a winner.

Bowen Yang, who just a couple weeks ago jokingly(?) bemoaned SNL's unwillingness to let his "gay Passover bunny" sketch happen, returned to Weekend Update as the iceberg that sunk the Titanic. Playing the part like a celebrity with a checkered past, Yang icily (OK, maybe slight pun intended) informs co-host Colin Jost that he's not there to discuss "the sinking."

Why is he there, then? To promote his "hyper-pop EDM new disco fantasia" album called Music. Naturally! The normally unflappable Yang skates close to breaking a few times and really, who can blame him? This sketch is peak SNL weirdness.
