The power that Bowen Yang and Julio Torres have! What could have made Sara Lee the bread brand of choice for gays, has turned into the company slightly distancing itself.
On Saturday, Harry Styles made his solo hosting debut on
Saturday Night Live
. Directly after the showing, a skit centering on Sara Lee Bread created by Yang and Torres, went viral after the pair roped
Styles into becoming our favorite chaotic bottom
. In the sketch, the singer played a social media manager who mistakenly used the Sara Lee brand Instagram to drop emoji chains about being railed to death, as well as phrases like "wreck me daddy," in the comment sections of Instagram posts from Nick Jonas and random fashion twinks "with only 200 followers."
So what is a true fan to do with this sort of material? Be inspired by it of course.
Show viewers took to the IRL Sara Lee Instagram account to drop a deluge of horny comments themselves. A few spiced it up with phrases like "Destroy me King," and "My throat is open," all pulling reference from
SNL
. And well kids, the actual social media managers over at Sara Lee didn't know what to do!
"We didn't know about or participate in the creation of the skit so as you can imagine, waking up to all those comments threw us for a bit of a loop," a brand spokesperson told
The Advocate
. Yang had assumed (and tweeted) the company was deleting the comments as they began to disappear. "We didn't delete any comments but did temporarily hide them until we could read through and understand what happened. All comments are now visible and we will be monitoring for any that violate Instagram standards."
"While the explicit jokes in the skit do not align with Sara Lee Bread's brand, we know
SNL
pushes the envelope for laughs and are taking it all in stride," they said. Good on you!
