SNL Finale: Scarlett Johansson’s Ivanka Joins Trump & Co. to Sing ‘Hallelujah’
Saturday Night Live parodied itself this weekend, beginning its Season 42 finale by satirizing last November’s “Hallelujah” performance by Kate McKinnon’s Hillary Clinton. This time around, it was Alec Baldwin’s President Donald Trump behind the piano, joined by some of his closest friends and family.

The performance was perhaps most noteworthy for a surprise cameo by Scarlett Johansson, who reprised her role as Ivanka Trump while McKinnon was busy playing Kellyanne Conway. Also among Trump’s backup vocalists: Melania (Cecily Strong), sons Eric (Alex Moffat) and Donald Jr. (Mikey Day), Sarah Huckabee Sanders (Aidy Bryant) and Grim Reaper Steve Bannon.
“I’m not giving up because I didn’t do anything wrong,” Baldwin’s Trump said at the close of the performance. “But I can’t speak for these people.”

I was in awe when ScarJo (Black Widow) shows up as Ivanka Trump in the cold open.
Did anyone else notice the little russian flag pin Baldwin is wearing, nice touch lol!
He’s been wearing it since Trump left it behind in the dressing room.
Thank God this was the finale now hopefully we do not have to endure Baldwin the entire summer
And maybe by fall we won’t have to worry about it anymore, because Trump’s presidency will be over!
By 2025 there’s a 100% chance his presidency will be over.
What are these people going to do with themselves all summer now that this season of “Republican Cosplay” has come to an end?
Stand up, sketch and movies like the cast does every year.
Are Beck and Kyle leaving too, or did they just need extra bodies for that Class of ’17 skit?
Hopefully Kyle is but beck is pretty funny.
Just read Sasheer Zamata will be gone.
Was Beck Bennet playing Mike Pence or Putin? I am guessing Pence as he had his shirt on
never mind, found the answer
Is that the last time Baldwin is going to play Trump? Will they get Darrell Hammond to play him in the fall when they come back?
It needed Melissa McCarthy’s Spicey.
