The popular sketch comedy show, Saturday Night Live, has had a long legacy of commercial key figures parodies brilliantly executed by the cast members. Owing to their display of sharp acting skills here, many members have found success through its vast stage, which has expanded into a full-fledged Hollywood career for members like Kate McKinnon, Kristen Wiig, Andy Sandberg, and others. And for the ones who committed straight out to it and bowed out after a good term of delivering fabulous entertainment, have carved a special place on SNL. One of them is Cecily Strong, a staple cast member on the show for a decade till 2022.

As SNL draws close to its 50th season soon, fans were in for a big surprise when they got to see Cecily Strong in her famous impersonation in the show’s latest episode. 

On May 10, SNL aired its penultimate episode, which was hosted by actor Walton Goggins, and Arcade Fire was the musical guest. During the opening, James Austin Johnson arrived on stage as Donald Trump when talking about the new tariffs and other things, and was joined by former cast member Cecily Strong, who did the fan-favorite impersonation of Jeanine Pirro, the new interim U.S. Attorney for Washington D.C., recently nominated by Trump. The audience gave Strong’s surprise cameo a hearty reception, as the crowd went wild, roaring for her.

Cecily Strong made the cold, open appearance even more enjoyable by adding the long-running gag of spitting wine on Weekend Update's Colin Jost. This was also a special Mother’s Day episode with cast members Kenan Thompson, Bowen Yang, and Marcello Hernandez sharing a Mother's Day message and were joined by their mothers onstage, following which Cecily Strong and James Austin Johnson came. This marks the first SNL appearance of the actress who left the show in 2022.

After leaving the show, Cecily Strong has had big changes in her life as the comedian recently welcomed her first child.

This week's SNL episode was Cecily Strong’s first screen presence, who five weeks ago welcomed her first child, a daughter, with her fiancé, Jack. Strong shared the news of the newest arrival in her family through Instagram on April 10, in which she wrote, "It’s been a week and a day with my beautiful squirmy baby girl." After SNL, she was seen in other projects as well, though her run on SNL is among the audience’s favourite works.

Cecily Strong worked on the show from 2012 to 2022 and currently holds the title of the longest-tenured female cast member in SNL's history. During it, she was famous and admired for many celebrities’ impersonations, including Sofia Vergara, Olivia Coleman, and her most famous one, Melania Trump. While SNL's last month skit of Donald Trump was labelled "disgusting and crude" by fans, Strong's famous Jeanine Pirro impersonation, along with James Austin's Trump, was nothing but just adored.
