4 Videos That Prove Leslie Jones Is One Of The Funniest People On TV

Saturday Night Live cast member Leslie Jones celebrates her 50^th birthday today (September 7), and she is easily one of the funniest SNL cast members of recent memory.

In fact, her work has been so great, she’s nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy at this year’s Emmy Awards alongside Kate McKinnon and Vanessa Bayer. We know we don’t have to prove just how hilarious she is, but since it is her birthday and we look for any excuse to have a good laugh, here are four videos that prove Leslie Jones is one of the funniest people on TV.

Don’t know what our favorite part of this spoof is: Leslie’s “survival item” or the fact she kept calling Peter Dinklage by his Game of Thrones character name.

Speaking of Game of Thrones, this recent segment from Late Night with Seth Meyers is a must-watch, even if you know nothing about the HBO hit series. Leslie’s GoT episode commentary is hilarious! (Side note: Love her Def Leppard shirt.)

After experiencing a personal hack between seasons of SNL, Leslie addressed the issue on last year’s season premiere during “Weekend Update.” Honestly, this might be one of her best, most defiant moments on the show, and we just love her for it.

This popular Tonight Show bit featured Leslie alongside Keegan-Michael Key and host Jimmy Fallon, and her one-liners on Madonna will make you literally LOL.

It’s just the song playing in the background that has NSFW language, but only Leslie Jones could pull off this fun magic.
