As more and more celebrities make their often awkward way down the hall at *The Jennifer Hudson Show*, Nikki Glaser took aim at the show’s backstage ritual during her appearance on *Saturday Night Live*.
The host of this weekend’s *SNL* episode appeared in a pharmaceutical sketch for “Hudsacilin,” described as “the only medication proven to cure spirit tunnel-related symptoms” experienced by guests of the syndicated talk show.
“I love Jennifer Hudson, but as an uncoordinated white woman, I felt trapped,” Glaser explained. “I tried practicing, but everything I came up with looked career-ending.”
A humorous voiceover then clarifies, “Hudsacilin works, not by taking your anxiety away, but by making you so violently ill, you have no choice but to cancel.”
As Glaser portrays herself getting sick in the bathroom, the voiceover continues, noting that Hudsacilin is “made from a gentle blend of E. coli, Influenza, C. diff, and rancid buttermilk.”
In recent months, celebrities such as Michelle Obama, Simon Cowell, Renee Rapp, Kevin Hart, and more have appeared on *The Jennifer Hudson Show*. The show’s staff line the hall from their dressing room to the stage, hyping up each guest with a personalized chant and dance—making for a memorable, albeit sometimes awkward, welcome.
