SNL controversy: Are cast members copying online creators or 'spoofing' them?

WASHINGTON (TND) — Twitter users are divided on whether a "Saturday Night Live" skit from Saturday copied a Black TikToker's viral video.

SNL cast member Egobunma Kelechi "Ego" Nwodim described the differences between "your" and "you're" against a whiteboard. The Twitter account @WatchTheLens noted on Sunday that SNL should have credited TikToker @cleotrapawest for the skit.

Cleotrapa is a 21-year-old Staten Island, N.Y. rising artist, public figure and influencer. She gained a social media presence for her rapping and comical short videos.

She posted a TikTok back in September explaining "your" versus "you're." The video also features a whiteboard that she points to while discussing the grammar for each word. WARNING: The video below contains strong language.

Twitter user @fraklikeme wrote "spoofing exaggerates or has a take on the original material. This is just plain copycatting & theft."

Another user @Kyla_Lacey mostly disagreed with @WatchtheLens, noting that SNL takes "a popular thing they see and spoof it."

The video has accumulated over one million views, 260 likes and 10,000 comments.

Cleotrapa has yet to comment publicly on the similarities, but she did re-upload a video from TikToker @lilloworldwide.
