Teller Parodies ‘Property Brothers’ on ‘SNL’ to Mock Trump’s Ballroom
Miles Teller showcased his comedic talent on Saturday Night Live (SNL) by parodying the popular home renovation show, Property Brothers, alongside co-stars James Austin Johnson and Chloe Fineman. The segment featured Teller impersonating Drew and Jonathan Scott as they transformed a ballroom for former President Donald Trump.
Comedic Portrayal of Trump by James Austin Johnson
In the SNL sketch, James Austin Johnson took on the role of Donald Trump, while Fineman played his wife, Melania Trump. The pre-recorded skit, which lasted approximately four and a half minutes, garnered significant attention, with over 225,000 views on YouTube shortly after its release.
Interior Design and Extravagance
During the sketch, the Property Brothers praised Trump’s “strong eye for interior design.” The former president humorously commented on his lavish tastes, saying, “I put these gold urns everywhere, like 100 in every room, which makes me happy.” He emphasized the importance of finding joy amid challenging global events.
Redesigning the White House
- The exterior had been revamped, turning the Rose Garden into what looked like outdoor seating at an Olive Garden.
- The renovation budget was humorously alluded to as being “between $350 million and infinity.”
- The White House features 55,000 square feet and 132 rooms.
Melania Trump, played by Fineman, chimed in, expressing the need for more space within the expansive residence. “We need a ballroom because Donald loves to dance,” she said, to which Trump humorously added, “I’m a terrific dancer. Just ask your eyes.”
Unexpected Help from Astronauts and Park Rangers
The backdrop of the renovation included government shutdowns, implying that astronauts and park rangers had been enlisted to assist with the demolition work in the East Wing. The segment concluded with a request for an MMA fight ring to be included in the plans for the ballroom area.
This SNL parody not only entertained viewers but also satirized the extravagant tendencies associated with the former president and his family. The portrayal highlighted both the absurdity and humor inherent in high-profile home renovations and political life.
