Aimee Lou Wood Says The "SNL" Parody Of "The White Lotus" Was "Mean And Unfunny"

If you watched this season of The White Lotus, you already know that Sex Education star Aimee Lou Wood was the show’s breakout performance this time around.

So, last night, SNL did a parody of The White Lotus called — wait for it — “The White POTUS.” Three guesses who it was about, try me.

At one point, SNL cast member Sarah Sherman appeared as a character that was very much made out to be in the guise of Aimee Lou Wood.

When Jon Hamm-as-RFK Jr. made a reference to taking fluoride out of drinking water, Sarah’s character replied through huge fake teeth, “Fluoride? What’s that?”

Obviously, the gag was a clear reference to Aimee’s teeth, a subject that she’s spoken about in the past. Unsurprisingly, she was not a fan of the portrayal.

Earlier today, Aimee took to her IG story to dispel the notion that HBO ever called her “ugly” in the casting process — and while doing so, she pointed out that she thought the SNL parody was “mean and unfunny.”

She went on to categorize HBO as “kind and supportive and never wronged me,” and SNL as “mean.”

“Such a shame, cuz I had such a great time watching it a couple weeks ago,” she said in another slide. “Yes, take the piss for sure – but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?”

She then reposted a commenter who said that much of the sketch was political satire, but she was the only person who was essentially made fun of for their looks despite having no political affiliation with anyone being parodied. “Correct,” she replied.

Another commenter criticized Sarah’s accent work, and Aimee replied, “At least get the accent right seriously. I respect accuracy even if it’s mean.”
