Another one bites the dust.
Amid the cast shakeups at “Saturday Night Live” ahead of the Season 51 premiere, Ego Nwodim announced her exit after seven years.
On Friday, Nwodim, 37, posted on her Instagram, “the hardest part of a great party is knowing when to say goodnight. But after seven unforgettable seasons, I have decided to leave ‘SNL.’”
She thanked longtime “SNL” mastermind Lorne Michaels, 80, “for the opportunity” and thanked the cast, crew, and writers “for their brilliance, support, and friendship.”
The comedian concluded her message by writing, “Week after week on that stage taught me more than I could have ever imagined, and I will carry those memories (and that laughter) with me always.”
After a praying hands and kiss emoji, she signed off by saying, “now invite me to your weddings please!” seemingly to her fellow cast mates.
Fellow comedian Amber Ruffin replied in a comment, “Congratulations! As long as I can still watch you perform, I’m good.”
