The late night show used Melissa McCarthy — dressed in an ill-fitting suit and blonde wig — to mock the White House press secretary Saturday night.
The “Bridesmaids” actress delivered a shouted message from the lectern in the briefing room while ignoring questions about Steve Bannon’s role on the National Security Council and locking a CNN reporter in a cage.
“I know that myself and the press have gotten off to a rocky start,” McCarthy’s Spicer said. “When I say rocky start, I mean it in the sense of ‘Rocky,’ the movie, because I came out here to punch you in the face. And also I don’t talk so good.”
