Leslie Jones Explains Why She Doesn't Miss 'Saturday Night Live'

Leslie Jones is opening up about her time on Saturday Night Live.

While promoting her new game show Supermarket Sweep, the 53-year-old former cast member said that she does not miss being on the sketch show.

“I don’t miss it at all,” Leslie shared with Entertainment Tonight. “I miss Kenan [Thompson] but I don’t miss [it]. That job was hard, man. That job was like two jobs and very restrictive too. I wasn’t very free there.”

Leslie first joined SNL back in 2014. She shocked fans back in 2019 when she announced that she was leaving the show.

Her role on the show earned her two Emmy nods for Best Supporting Actress in 2017 and 2018.

Earlier this year, Leslie shared the one piece of advice that she would give to her younger self.
