In her appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallonon Tuesday night, the comedian revealed how she got legendary actress Meryl Streep to appear in the anniversary special’s "Close Encounter" sketch. She also discussed her book tour, which she embarked on last year, and proudly showed off some of the fresh vegetables she grew in her own garden.
For the show's 50th anniversary special, which aired in February of this year, McKinnon was joined by Pedro Pascal and Woody Harrelson. Midway through the sketch, Streep appears as Mrs. Rafferty, who was also abducted by the aliens, and recounts an encounter just as bizarre as her daughter's.
“A little bit, yeah. Well, they were like, 'Who would you want to be in the sketch with you?’ And I was like, ‘I don’t know, Meryl Streep,'" the 41-year-old actress admitted. “And then a few days later, they called and they were like 'Okay, so Meryl is in. Can you call Meryl and just say thank you and tell her a little bit about the sketch?'"
After leaving the sketch comedy show after its 47th season, McKinnon went on to act in many movies, including Barbie and A Minecraft Movie. She also released her first children’s book last October, with the second installment coming out next Tuesday.
