How does Paul Rudd [1] keep a straight face with Kate McKinnon crawling all over him? No, I'm genuinely curious because the man has succeeded where many others have failed. Rudd hosted Saturday Night Live [2]'s season finale on May 18, and participated in a skit familiar to actors Ryan Gosling [3], Brie Larson, and Liev Schreiber [4].
He joined McKinnon and Cecily Strong in a"paranormal encounters" sketch which is a fan-favourite for getting hosts to break character, but Rudd held strong. He kept his cool as McKinnon thrusted against his neck and stuck her tongue in his ears, never letting a tiny smile or chuckle betray him. Sorry, but Gosling could never [5]. Watch the full skit above to see Rudd's impressive feat — he's the only host to ever make it through without breaking [6].
