RFK Jr.’s ‘Brain Worm’ Goes Marilyn Monroe Mode Over Candidate On ‘SNL’
“Saturday Night Live” cast member Sarah Sherman called the conspiracy theorist’s body a “worm’s paradise.”
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “brain worm” (played by “SNL” cast member Sarah Sherman) wiggled like Marilyn Monroe over the independent presidential candidate in a “Weekend Update” segment mocking news of a parasite found inside his head.
The conspiracy theorist, per a recent report by The New York Times, revealed in a divorce deposition that he was dealing with memory loss and mental fog in 2010 before a doctor told Kennedy that he believed that his health issues were due to a worm that got into his brain and “ate a portion of it and then died.”
Sherman, who wore an RFK Jr. pin and waved a flag with his name on it, told “Weekend Update” co-host Colin Jost that the candidate’s body was a “worm’s paradise.”
“Not a single drop of vaccine in sight. My whole parasite posse hung out in there. Shoutout to hook worm, botfly, that fish that swims up your pee stream and my man, Tom Sandoval,” said Sherman as she mocked the “Vanderpump Rules” star, who was dubbed a “worm with a mustache” by co-star James Kennedy during the show’s Season 10 reunion.
Sherman also made a dig at Kevin Spacey’s recent RFK Jr. endorsement and joked that she ate the part of Spacey’s brain that “understood the word no” in reference to the actor facing new sexual misconduct allegations.
She later offered a message to RFK Jr. as she launched into an impression of Monroe.
“I want you back, and if you want me back, hey, meet me at the top of the Empire State Building tonight. I’ll be there wearing my Marilyn Monroe dress, singing, ‘Happy worm brain, Mr. Future President,’” Sherman said.
