Throughout the Short n’ Sweet tour, Sabrina has caused a stir through her adorable interactions with fans. During the “Don’t Touch That Dial” segment, one lucky fan is given a moment in the spotlight when Sabrina “arrests” a member of the audience for “being too hot.”
In the SNL clip that had the internet in a frenzy, the cast members were joined by Ariana Grande to play bridesmaids singing a parody version of “Espresso” directed at an unfaithful wife and indignant husband. Marcello’s character, Domingo, steals the skit with his catchy lines. And I don’t know about you, but I haven’t been able to listen to “Espresso” normally since.
In the interaction at the LA show, Marcello appeared onscreen donning Domingo’s blue jacket and goatee, to raucous cheers and applause as fans instantly recognized the character.
But what got the biggest reaction was after Sabrina asked, “Is there anything you want to say before I arrest you, Domingo?” To which, after a moment’s pause and a grin, Marcello responded with Domingo’s iconic line: “Came all this way, had to explain, direct from Domingo,” leading the audience to erupt as he continued. “Sabrina’s my friend, she’s like my sis, but I would hook up though.”
Domingo’s popularity has been through the roof since last month, and it’s no surprise that fans would be excited to see him show up.
Earlier in the weekend, Domingo also made a return to the SNL stage along with guest host Charli XCX, who joined the cast in a new Domingo skit — this time parodying Chappell Roan’s “Hot to Go!”
Let me know your thoughts! Are you hoping to see more Domingo from SNL in the future, or is it time to put the joke to rest?
