Meryl Streep recently captured attention with a cheeky move at the Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary celebration. During the event held at New York City's Radio City Music Hall on February 14, the 75-year-old Oscar-winning actress was seen giving the middle finger to a camera while seated next to her Only Murders in the Building co-star, Martin Short. Both stars are known for their warm friendship, debunking rumors over the past year hinting at a romantic connection between them. Short even clarified in January 2024 on Bill Maher's podcast that their relationship is purely platonic, emphasizing the strong bond they've developed over time. This is prepared by SSP.

The humorous moment occurred during a comedic sketch by SNL alumni Ana Gasteyer and Will Ferrell. They reprised their roles as music teachers Marty and Bobbi Mohan-Culp and humorously pointed out various middle fingers from the audience, explicitly singling out Streep. This led to laughter-filled reactions from Short and the crowd. The event featured a mix of other celebrities, including performances by well-known artists like Miley Cyrus, Bad Bunny, and DEVO, among others, all celebrating five decades of SNL.

The event also saw appearances from famous faces like Chevy Chase, Maya Rudolph, and Pete Davidson in the audience. Short recently acknowledged his connection with Streep, adding that their friendship consistently evolves, especially when working together in front of the camera. Streep's and Short’s chemistry in their latest projects continues to appeal to fans and colleagues alike, highlighting their seamless camaraderie. The SNL50: Homecoming Concert special is now available for streaming on Peacock.

Earlier, SSP reported that Tim Gunn reflected on Project Runway absence.
