Comedian and actor John Mulaney returned as Saturday evening live host with a not-so-good update on his “female hips”: he may end up needing hip replacement surgery.

Mulaney, who last hosted SNL in February 2022, when he joined the five-timer club, he joked about getting older. At 42, he’s not feeling great, he said.

“My parents chose a bad time to grow old. When I was younger, maybe I could have helped them. But I can’t do that now. I am 42. I don’t feel well either,” he said. “My brother called me in April. He says, “Mommy fell.” I fell! It hurt!”

“I also have a plaster on my hand. Older people love a band-aid on the hand,” he continued, imagining how they could all injure their hands in the same way, for example by fending off knife-wielding robbers with their palms facing them. in.

Mulaney then revealed that he has a tear in his right labrum and receives weekly physical therapy for it, along with three older women.

“We lay on mats. We press our lower back into the mats to stabilize ourselves. Then we do these little crunches to strengthen our muscles and vaginas,” he joked. “And we work very hard. We cheer each other on. You see silver hair and turquoise jewelry everywhere.”

And then the bad news: “Out of all the women in the class, the teacher singled me out and said that I would not benefit from physical therapy in the long run and that I would not even benefit from a laparoscopic procedure. and that I would eventually have to have hip replacement surgery.”

“I’m going to get my hip replaced,” he said, “and my mom is going to take me home.”
