“SNL” Gives Sneak-Peek Of Jim Carrey As Joe Biden, Maya Rudolph As Kamala Harris

S.N.L is returning tomorrow night for its first live episode since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March, and the show’s 46th season premiere has a lot of ground to cover. It looks like the sketch comedy show will be tackling one of the most pressing developments that has unfolded since the start of the show’s hiatus five months ago: Joe Biden becoming the Democratic nominee for the upcoming presidential election, with senator Kamala Harris as his running mate. 

The show dropped a teaser on their Twitter account last night, featuring Jim Carrey as Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris being portrayed by Maya Rudolph this season. The short clip depicts the two undergoing the necessary hair and makeup required for them to take on their roles, ending with them standing back-to-back as they gaze triumphantly at the camera, already perfectly embodying their characters’ signature mannerisms (the Joe Biden half-smile-smirk, Kamala’s power stance). 

Rudolph, who portrayed Harris on the show earlier on in the race in a spot-on impression, was the natural choice for the role upon Biden announcing the California senator as his Vice President. While Carrey was not necessarily the obvious choice for Biden’s role, he had long been eyeing it. Upon expressing his interest to the show’s creator/producer, Lorne Michaels, Carrey was granted the part and is predicted to deliver on all fronts.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

KYLE

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
