Dana Carvey's ice cream mess with Maya Rudolph wasn't planned

guess what? And by the way – that's the ice cream moment between Dana Carvey and Maya Rudolph from last week Saturday Night Live The spoofing of the vice presidential debate on Cold Open was completely spontaneous.

Speaking in the last episode of Super fly Podcastwhich he co-hosted with David Spade, Carvey revealed the rant in which he appeared (as Joe Biden) smashing ice cream in Maya Rudolph's face (as Kamala Harris) was a spur-of-the-moment decision.

“The ice cream cone was not planned,” Carvey said. “I asked the prop master to give me an ice cream cone just to display in the fashion show. And after that air show, she gave me [a] Much larger [one]I didn't ask her.”

Near the end of the episode's October 5 premiere, Biden-Carvey crashed the viewing party hosted by Rudolph's Kamala Harris and Andy Samberg's Doug Emhoff, ending up delivering a triple scoop of vanilla ice cream directly to the actress' face; She takes it in stride and tries not to laugh or break character.

“Live, I was right in the gestures,” Carvey explained. “I thought, 'This is ice cream, you big guy.' “This is Maya's face. I didn't want to hurt her, but I just… I thought about it, and I did it within two seconds. This is to put an end to all the rumors and all the conversations.” He also did not know that he had a “big punch” on his mouth, As he told Speed.

Later in the podcast, which featured that week's host, comedian Nate Bargazzi, Carvey said he wanted his impression of Biden to be done “respectfully.” What started as a viral clip of himself on the Internet turned into a stint at his alma mater, where he was trying to “keep his… [the impression] Funny.” Previous SNL The star, who previously played George HW Bush, described the Biden parody as a mix of caricatures of Mr Magoo and the late comedian Tim Conway.

“The main thing is that he makes me laugh, and I definitely do things that he doesn't do,” he said. “He doesn't squish ice cream in faces. You know? He doesn't say, 'I can't believe it's not butter.' I do what I did to Bush I.”
