Kristen Wiig received a star-studded reception last night when she hosted “Saturday Night Live” for the fifth time allowing her to join the elite “Five-Timers Club.” “I am so happy to be back, and I am so excited because it is my fifth time hosting, so I am officially in the five-timers club,” Wiig, 50, told the excited crowd.
After taking a moment to welcome the “SNL” band, the “Palm Royale” star explained the significance of the club to the gathered audience. “So I have to say as a former cast member, it is very special being a five-timer,” Wiig said shortly before being interrupted by Paul Rudd who asks the “Bridesmaids” star if he could be part of the sketch where she gets her jacket. “Oh!

Shortly after, Paula Pell — a former writer for the comedy show — also makes an appearance. “I just think it’s so sweet that you’re so excited about getting a five-timers jacket,” Pell, 60, jokes. “They basically hand those out to everybody like free maxi pads.” At that point, Matt Damon — also donning a jacket despite only having hosted the show just twice —appeared.“Hi Kristen, First off, big fan.
