Sydney Sweeney “practically begged” the writers of Saturday Night Live to include jokes about her breasts, according to Bowen Yang.The Euphoria star hosted the sketch show for the first time back in March, and her physical appearance was the butt of the joke for many of the segments.In an appearance on the Fly on the Wall podcast, Yang said that Sweeney was “an example of a host who came in and understood how she was being consumed and perceived already.“She came in and was like, ‘Please, everyone, make jokes about my boobs,’” he added. “She was practically begging everybody.”The actress previously addressed her SNL appearance saying she was in on the joke.“There’s so many people out there who are like, ‘Oh, she’s famous because she showed her boobs,’” she told GQ. “You just learn the system.

You can try and fight it but they just fight back. Even if you stand up for yourself, people are going to attack you for standing up for yourself.”During Sweeney’s appearance on SNL in March, one of the sketches saw her play a Hooters waitress who, despite being terrible at her job, rakes in vast amounts of tips from customers who her mesmerised by her attractiveness.In another sketch, Sweeney discovers that Yang is actually straight, and that he only pretends to be gay because it’s his “shortcut to laughs”.

The pair share a sex scene in the sketch, and Yang later revealed that his co-star turned down the option for an intimacy coordinator.During an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, Yang shared: “I was like, ‘Hey, if at any point you’re uncomfortable, we have an intimacy coordinator there.

You can tap out at any time if you’re not feeling it, like, no problem. We just want you to feel safe and secure and all that.’.
