Readers in the US will be familiar with Saturday Night Live. For a short period back in the 1980s, we Brits had our own version, originally entitled Saturday Live, but later renamed Friday Night Live, on account of its new place in the schedules. That series ended in 1988. But it came back last Friday for a one-off special celebrating 40 years of Channel 4.
And the revival has hit the headlines, thanks to trans woman and comedian, Jordan Gray.
She sang a song whilst playing the piano in the traditional manner — with her fingers. It wasn’t a particularly funny song, but it was an energetic performance. Entertaining enough.
And then, in one quick movement, she stripped off her pink suit, Full Monty style, flashing both her breasts and her penis, and finished up playing the piano with her penis.
Disgusted
Pink News praised the “iconic” performance.
But elsewhere, many people were offended.
