Kerry Washington was the first black woman to host NBC's live sketch comedy show "Saturday Night Live," using the gig to make fun of all the gender and racial stereotypes going again her, making for one memorable guest host.
Amongst the funniest skits the "Scandal" star participated in was the "What Does The Fox Say?" spoof titled "What Does My Girl Say?" With the help of SNL cast member Jay Pharoah, the two portrayed a couple in the skit with trust issues. Washington asks Pharoah about a girl who sent him a text message and thus the skit begins.
Washington's character let's her jealous get the best of her and it made for some great one-liners. Every time the chorus would come up, a knew "What Does My Girl Say" line was uttered, including "Who that, who that, who that b*tch?!" and "You done, you done messed up now!" to the beat of "The Fox."
At one point, Washington's jealously leads her to check Pharoah's iCloud account where she finds photos of womans' butts. She eventually comes to her senses and leaves Pharoah asking her to take him back.

SNL has recently received negative attention about the lack of black female cast members on the show. Show regulars Kenan Thompson and Pharoah have both spoken out publically about their discontent about the "lack of diversity" in the cast.
SNL used Washington's appearance to make fun of the issue in the opening skit. Washington played Michelle Obama and made a quick change to portray Oprah. The show then played a message "apologizing" to Washington for having her play every black female needed in the night's sketches.
Cast member Taran Killam then introduced six "Matthew McConaugheys" into the skit, making fun of home many white males were on the show. Reverend Al Sharpton then took to the stage to say, "What have we learned today? As usual, nothing." Sharpton then introduced the show.
