Shock jock Howard Stern told Kamala Harris that he “hates” seeing her being mocked on “Saturday Night Live” during the vice president’s appearance on his radio show Tuesday.
“I hate it. I don’t want you being made fun of,” Stern told the Democratic presidential candidate. “There’s too much at stake. I believe the entire future of this country right now … it’s literally on the line.”
But Harris, 59, said she gets a laugh out of actor Maya Rudolph’s impersonation of herself, including on last week’s episode.
“It was funny,” she said. “I am a huge fan of Maya Rudolph, so I think she’s put a lot of time into doing the piece and the character.”
Rudolph reprised her role as Harris this season after first playing the former California district attorney during the 2020 election run-up.
Harris also addressed the “SNL” skits during an appearance on “The View” earlier in the day.
She was shown a video of Rudolph’s performance that she hadn’t yet seen during the talk show.
“Maya Rudolph. I mean she is so good. She has the whole thing — the suit, the jewelry, everything, the mannerisms,” Harris said.
The two appearances are part of a new media tour Harris is doing with less than a month left until Election Day.
She previously was interviewed on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast to reach younger generations as well as “60 Minutes” and will appear on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” Tuesday night.
