Woody Harrelson Delivers Jaw-Dropping COVID Vaccine Conspiracy During Chaotic SNL Monologue!

Woody Harrelson was the host of this weekend’s Saturday Night Live episode and he sure didn’t shy away from drawing attention to the act!!

The actor was on hand to host the show for the fifth time — and receive his vaunted five-timers club jacket for the achievement. However, things didn’t go quite as planned on stage during his opening monologue. And now the fallout is coming in!!

So, Woody’s opening monologue was noteworthy for a few reasons. The star donned the stage at Studio 8H to first tell fans how he was a “redneck hippie.” What he meant by that was, well, not so clear. He said he was for gun rights… but only if they were, uh, squirt guns:

“You know, the red in me thinks you should be allowed to own guns. The blue in me thinks — squirt guns. So, I’m red and blue which makes purple. I’m purple.”

The Triangle Of Sadness actor was also openly pining for his five-timers jacket during the monologue.

When he first got on stage to a roaring round of applause from the audience, he alluded to the achievement as he looked off to the side with his arms extended, waiting for a jacket to be placed upon him:

“And you know what that means…”

But nobody came out!! Awkward!

Unmoved, Harrelson pressed forward. He referenced back to the last time he hosted SNL — Thanksgiving 2019 — and how he had smoked weed before doing the show. Explaining why he did so in that ep more than three years ago, Woody said:

“The reason I like herb more than alcohol is because it makes me feel good, no hangovers and I never wake up covered in blood.”

Ummm OK?

Then, he continued to ramble on for a few minutes while the audience began to sound confused. They laughed along at points, but Woody was off on his own tangent!

And then he went for it!!! After six rambling minutes, Woody got to the point:

“So the movie goes like this: the biggest drug cartels in the world get together and buy up all the media and all the politicians and force all the people in the world to stay locked in their homes. And people can only come out if they take the cartel’s drugs and keep taking them over and over.”

There’s the COVID conspiracy — and some anti-vaccine sentiment to boot. But he wasn’t backing off it!

He concluded in a flourish:

“I threw the script away. I mean, who is going to believe that crazy idea? Being forced to do drugs? I do that voluntarily all day long.”

Damn!

Woody finally did get that five-timers jacket, by the way.

Scarlett Johansson presented it to him after he was initially tricked by a surprise delivery from Kenan Thompson to musical guest Jack White instead. Oops!
