Sometimes there is just so much news of which “Saturday Night Live” wants to make fun the NBC late-night sketch show needs to cram a lot of commentary into one sketch. Thankfully, earlier in Season 46 they found a way to do so with “Oops You Did It Again,” a fictional talk show hosted by Britney Spears (played by Chloe Fineman) that examines the week’s “pariahs” to determine if they’re “not that innocent.” And on the April 3 show they brought it back to weigh in on Lil Nas X, Pepé Le Pew and Rep. Matt Gaetz.

Over the weekend, Lil Nas X dropped a video for his new single “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)” full of campy visuals that include the artist sliding down to hell on a stripper pole and giving Satan a lap dance before killing him and stealing his horns. To accompany the video, he teamed up with MSCHF to release a limited-edition line of devil-themed sneakers that come complete with pentagrams and a “1 drop of human blood.”
One person who is apparently not cool with the new Satanic shoes, however? Clemson’s star quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who despite a concerted effort to remain apolitical when it come to maintaining his public persona felt compelled to weigh in on social media.
