The websites Drudge Report and Huffington Post are reporting new "SNL" cast member Jenny Slate marked her debut by uttering the f-bomb on air during a sketch with Kristen Wiig Saturday.
Slate, a New York comedian, was performing in a biker chick skit. "You frickin' just threw an ashtray full of butts at my head. You know what, you stood up for yourself and I f***in' love you for that," Slate said to Wiig's fellow biker chick in the skit.
In the video, Slate can be seen puffing out her cheeks after the swear word, perhaps from apparent regret. The slip did not appear in the West Coast broadcast.
The New York Times says a spokeswoman for NBC's East Coast Entertainment division would have no comment. Read her bio here.
Actress Megan Fox was the host and U2 was the featured musical guest. Ryan Reynolds is the host on Oct. 3, with musical guest Lady Gaga.
