Emma Stone Welcomed Into ‘SNL’ Five-Timers Club by Tina Fey and Candice Bergen in Monologue
Emma Stone joined “Saturday Night Live’s” coveted Five-Timers Club this Saturday, and was welcomed into “SNL her-story” by Tina Fey and Candice Bergen during her monologue.
Fey and Bergen gifted Stone with the iconic Five-Timers Club jacket, which Stone joked had a joint in the pocket.

“That must be Woody Harrelson’s jacket,” Bergen quipped.
“There’s also a vaccine card in here,” Stone said, to which Fey responded, “Then it’s definitely not Woody’s.”
Harrelson hosted “SNL” in February and alluded to conspiracies about the COVID-19 vaccine in his monologue.
Stone’s episode was opened by Bowen Yang, who played expelled congressman George Santos and sang a parody of Elton John’s “Candle in the Wind.”
Stone currently stars opposite Nathan Fielder and Benny Safdie in Showtime’s “The Curse,” created by Fielder and Safdie. The series follows Whitney and Asher Siegel (played by Stone and Fielder), a married couple making an HGTV show about their philanthropic house flipping in the New Mexico town of Española. When Asher is “cursed” by a child, their marriage and professional relationship begin to spiral.
Stone will next be seen in Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Poor Things,” a surrealist black comedy for which she is being touted as a best actress contender. “Poor Things” also stars Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, Ramy Youssef, Christopher Abbott, Jerrod Carmichael and Margaret Qualley.
This season of “Saturday Night Live” has seen celebrity hosts Jason Momoa, Pete Davidson, Nate Bargatze and Timothée Chalamet, plus musical guests Tate McRae, Ice Spice, Foo Fighters and Boygenius. On the Oct. 21 episode, Bad Bunny pulled double duty and both hosted and performed. There has also been an influx of A-list cameos this season from such stars as Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce, Pedro Pascal, Lady Gaga, Mick Jagger, Alec Baldwin, Christopher Walken and more.
