But Pete isn’t the only SNL cast member who said goodbye in the season 47 finale. Aidy Bryant and Kyle Mooney also took their final bows, as did Kate McKinnon, who reprised one of her most beloved characters, Mrs. Rafferty, for the show’s cold open.  

Since 2015, Kate’s character Mrs. Rafferty has been known for her hilarious alien abduction survival stories—all told in explicit detail—that are so funny they’ve made even Ryan Gosling break character in the past. 

This time was no exception as she hilariously explained being “yanked skyward by some kind of claw machine” in her underwear and eventually landing half-naked in Citi Field during a Mets game after her extraterrestrial encounter.

At the end of the sketch, Kate’s character agreed to live amongst the aliens permanently. As she boarded the ship, the actress became emotional as she gave a brief wave and shared, “Well, Earth, I love ya. Thanks for letting me stay awhile. Live from New York, it’s Saturday night.”

Possible video evidence

Cash also also said Wilson’s bicycle appeared to be stolen and police later found it about 68 feet south of the home, concealed in thick bamboo.

Police noted in the affidavit that a surveillance video showed a dark colored SUV bearing a bicycle rack stop near the home one minute after Wilson entered it. On May 12, a day after the alleged murder, U.S. Marshalls found a 2012 Jeep Cherokee bearing a bicycle rack at Strickland’s address. He told police that he lives with Armstrong and that the SUV belongs to her. 

Colin Strickland speaks out

“Moriah Wilson and I had a brief romantic relationship from late October-early November 2021 that spanned a week or so while Wilson was visiting Austin,” Strickland, 35, told The Austin American-Statesman in a statement on May 20. “At the time, she and I had both recently ended relationships. She returned to her home in California and about a month later, Kaitlin Armstrong and I reconciled and resumed our relationship. After our brief relationship in October of 2021, [Wilson and I] were not in a romantic relationship, only a platonic and professional one.”

Strickland added, “There is no way to adequately express the regret and torture I feel about my proximity to this horrible crime.” He also said he has “cooperated fully with investigators” and will “continue to do so until some form of justice is served.”

Armstrong allegedly confronted Wilson about dating Strickland

According to the affidavit, Strickland told police he has dated Armstrong for approximately three years and that they briefly ended their relationship for one to two weeks in October 2021. He said that during their breakup, he met Wilson. “Strickland advised that while he and Wilson were dating, Armstrong called Wilson on the phone, telling Wilson she was the one who was dating Strickland,” the affidavit added.

Police were alerted to Strickland because Cash told them that on the day of the alleged murder, Wilson texted her to say she planned to meet with him to go swimming. Strickland told the cops that he picked Wilson up from Cash’s apartment on his motorcycle and that after they went swimming, they had dinner and he drove them back and dropped her off at the residence without entering himself, and then he left to go home.

Strickland lied to Armstrong about his whereabouts that day, telling her in a text that he went to drop flowers off for someone, and that his phone had died, the affidavit stated. He told police that Armstrong later arrived at their house, driving the 2012 Jeep Cherokee, alone.

John Driskell Hopkins just shared some “tough news.”

The bassist for the Zac Brown Band, announced he has been diagnosed with ALS. Hopkins shared the news in a video posted to the country music group’s official YouTube channel on May 20.

“Over the past several years, I’ve noticed some balance issues and some stiffness in my hands,” he shared. “After careful analysis by some of the country’s top neurologists, I have been diagnosed with ALS.” 

ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is sometimes known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. It is a neurodegenerative disease that targets the nervous system, making muscles weaken and limiting physical function, according to the ALS Association. The effects on the brain and spinal cord can cause motor function to decrease, loss of muscle control, and loss of speech and movement. The average life expectancy is two to five years.

Although there is no cure for ALS, Hopkins, 51, remains hopeful he can continue to play for his fans for a long while.

Everything is awesome because Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger have welcomed another child together.

The adorable newborn, named Eloise Christina Schwarzenegger Pratt, was born on May 21, joining big sister Lyla Maria, 21 months. “We are so excited to announce the birth of our second daughter,” the duo wrote on Instagram May 22. “Mama and baby are doing well. We feel beyond blessed and grateful. Love, Katherine and Chris.” Chris also co-parents his son Jack, 9, with ex Anna Faris.  

The Guardians of the Galaxy actor, 42, and best-selling author, 32, confirmed that they were expecting their second child together in December 2021. On the same day, Katherine was photographed with a baby bump while out and about in Los Angeles.   

While they have both shared the most un-bear-ably adorable photos of Lyla and Jack on their respective Instagram accounts in the past, the couple have tried to protect their little ones by not publicly showing their faces online. 

It’s prom night for Deacon Phillippe.

The 18-year-old son of Reese Witherspoon and ex Ryan Phillippe suited up for the high school milestone, posting several pics to his Instagram account on May 21.

“Prom anyone??,” he captioned the snaps, which included some him posing outside on a putting green in a sleek dark grey jacket and matching trousers, light-blue button-up, skinny tie and pink flower corsage. 

He also shared a pic alongside his dad and two friends.

Reese took to the comments section to gush over the teen’s prom look, saying she loved his pink flower by way of emojis. Deacon’s older sister Ava Phillippe, 22, also commented, “looking sharp!”

Later on his Instagram Story, Deacon posted a video of him trying to sink a putt before heading to prom, writing, “Prom shot was wildly unsuccessful.”

Deacon’s big night comes seven months after Reese and Ryan—who finalized their divorce in 2008 after nine years of marriage—reunited at a restaurant to celebrate their youngest child’s 18th birthday.

Third time’s a charm: Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are married—again!

After a Las Vegas ceremony in April and an intimate courthouse wedding in Southern California on May 15, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum and the Blink-182 drummer tied the knot in a lavish outdoor ceremony in the village of Portofino in Italy on May 22, E! News has learned.

During the European nuptials, Kourtney, 43, and Travis, 46, said “I do” on a red carpeted altar at the 16th-century Castello Brown in front of friends and family, including her children Mason, 12, Penelope, 9, and Reign, 7, and Travis’ kids Landon, 18, Alabama, 16, as well as his stepdaughter, Atiana De La Hoya, 22. (Kourtney co-parents her trio with ex Scott Disick while Travis shares his kids with ex-wife Shanna Moakler. Neither of the exes attended the wedding.)

Atiana and Alabama served as bridesmaids, while Penelope was the flower girl. Reign serve as ring bearer.

Kourtney’s siblings—Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner were also in attendance. Mom Kris Jenner walked her down the aisle.

Days before flying to Italy, Kourtney and Travis legally wed in Santa Barbara, Calif., with her grandma Mary Jo “MJ” Campbell and his dad Randy Barker serving as witnesses. 

Pete’s mom, Amy Waters Davidson, echoed her son’s sentiments on her own Instagram Story a day after the show. “Thank you to everyone at SNL who were a second family to Pete,” she wrote. “Thank you to Lorne. We will never forget your support and love xoxo.” 

Before the season 47 finale, Pete penned an emotional letter to fans that was shared on his friend Dave Sirus‘ Instagram account.  

“I got to share so much with this audience and literally grow up in front of your eyes,” he wrote in part. “We were together through the good and the bad, the happiest and the darkest of times.” 

“SNL is my home. I’m so happy and sad about tonight’s show. For so many reasons I can’t explain,” he shared before jokingly adding, “Can’t wait to be back next year in a [John] Mulaney musical number.”

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker‘s star-studded wedding ceremony was one that will live on forever and ever. 

Megan Fox, fiancé Machine Gun Kelly and Barker’s Blink-182 bandmate Mark Hoppus were just a few of the many special guests who got all dressed up in their Sunday best to see Kravis exchange vows on May 22 in a lavish wedding ceremony in Portofino, Italy. 

The couple, who legally wed last weekend in California following a non-binding Las Vegas ceremony, was also joined by the entire Kardashian-Jenner family, including Kourtney’s mom Kris Jenner and her siblings Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner.

Kourtney and Travis’ blended family were also in attendance for the special day: Kourtney’s children, Mason, 12, Penelope, 9, and Reign, 7, (who she shares with ex Scott Disick), plus Travis’ kids, Landon, 18, Alabama, 16 (whose mom is Travis’ ex Shanna Moakler) and stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, 23. 

One day before the wedding ceremony, Kourtney donned another Dolce & Gabbana mini-dress, this time in black, featuring an emblem of the Virgin Mary on the front, which she accessorized with a short black veil with blue trim, long black gloves and strappy sandals. 

Kravis’ European wedding weekend was a blended family affair with Kourtney’s kids Mason Disick, 12, Penelope Disick, 9, and Reign Disick, 7, who she shares with ex Scott Disick, plus Travis’ son Landon Barker, 18, daughter Alabama Barker, 16, who he shares with ex-wife Shanna Moakler, and his stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, 23, all in attendance.

Little dress, big veil! 

All eyes were on the bride and her gorgeous wedding dress when Kourtney Kardashian walked down the aisle (with the help of mom Kris Jenner) to marry Travis Barker for the third time on May 22. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum, 43, and Blink-182 rocker, 46, tied the knot in a breathtaking, outdoor wedding in front of their friends and family in Portofino, Italy.

At the ceremony, the bride wore a white satin Dolce & Gabbana corseted mini dress that was covered in delicate, floral lace detailing on the sides, bottom and sleeves. The design was “inspired by 1960s Italian lingerie,” per British Vogue. The soft, romantic look matched perfectly with Kourtney’s long veil, which was attached to a headband as part of the Poosh founder’s simple, yet stunning updo.

At the bottom of the veil, which stretched behind Kourtney, an image of the Virgin Mary could be seen. She was also featured on the black wedding dress that Kourtney wore while grabbing lunch with Travis, who has a head tattoo of the madonna, on May 21. 

The words “Family Loyalty Respect” were also inscribed on Kourtney’s long and short veils. They are the same three words that Travis has tattooed on his forehead.
