‘Tanning Mom’ Tells Her Side Of The Story On SNL

After facing accusations that she took her five-year-old kid into a tanning bed with her, the so-called “Tanning Mom” made an appearance on “Weekend Update” to tell her side of the story. She was played by Kristen Wiig in orange makeup that actually made her look better than her real-life counterpart, and was trailed by a cloud of smoke.

She also had to pause every few minutes to gasp and sip water, since she was so dried out from tanning. Wiig held it together, even while explaining her beauty regimen, but Seth Meyers was giggling throughout, especially after Wiig showed him how she can make toast by holding a piece of bread between her thighs.
