SNL Prepares for VP Debate Spoof, Books Queen Latifah
October 3rd, 2008
How long is this sketch going to be? I can not wait! Tina Fey is gonna kill it with her Sarah Palin debate answers. 
Saturday Night Live has royal plans for a possible vice presidential debate sketch: they’ve booked Queen Latifah to play moderator Gwen Ifill.
“If we do a VP debate sketch, Queen Latifah is lined up to play Gwen Ifill.”
Ifill moderated Thursday’s vice presidential debate between Governor Sarah Palin and Senator Joseph Biden.
Because the SNL lineup is not finalized until shortly before airtime, it’s still possible a VP debate sketch will not go live.
In addition to Latifah’s possible appearance, Saturday night’s SNL will feature host Anne Hathaway and musical guest The Killers.
