Debra Messing Slams ‘Saturday Night Live’ For Requesting Kim Kardashian To Host

Debra Messing is slamming “Saturday Night Live” for spearheading Season 47 with Kim Kardashian West as a host.

NBC revealed on Wednesday how Owen Wilson, Kardashian, Rami Malek and Jason Sudeikis have been announced as the first four people to kick off this upcoming season when the show returns in October — and while Messing didn’t have anything to say about the majority, she did have some words for Miss West.

But the Messing was quick to voice her disdain on Twitter just after the news was announced.

“Why Kim Kardashian? I mean, I know she is a cultural icon, but SNL has hosts, generally, who are performers who are there to promote a film, TV show, or album launch,” Messing wrote. “Am I missing something?”

While West has yet to respond to the criticism from Messing, she has been busy talking about her kids.

Recently, West admitted how her eldest daughter, North West, wishes she was an only child most days.

In an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, West spoke on her eldest’s personality. Kardashian shares daughters North, 8, and Chicago, 3, and sons Saint, 5 ½, and Psalm, 2, with Kanye West.

“You know, North, I thought she was gonna grow out of this ‘I want to be an only child’ phase….she hasn’t,” Kardashian, 40, began.

“Even to go to school, there will be times where she’s like ‘I’m not riding in the car with my brother.’ “

Kim revealed she is the “carpool mom” for school as the family has tons of friends and cousins who live in their neighborhood. She informed DeGeneres, 63, that while she tries to make carpooling fun, sometimes North makes…demands.

“I have to make it a thing where sometimes we have to take two cars because I’ve agreed to pick up so many and I have to separate the kids because she wants her own music, her own vibe, she wants to sit with her friends. So I have to trade-off.”

“North is like goth,” Kim said of her eldest. “She’s into Hot Topic and she puts like fake tattoos on her face and she listens to Black Sabbath. And she’s just like a full goth girl.”

West 40, recently admitted to Parents magazine in the September 2021 issue how she would like to work on being stricter as a mom and saying “no” to four kids 

And while she knows her weak spots, she also knows her strengths: “I’m naturally very calm, which I think translates into my parenting. I don’t get super stressed or impatient, which I think is definitely a superpower when you have three kids age 5 and under running around.”
