- Saturday Night Live has issued a rare apology to actress Aimee Lou Wood following a sketch that parodied her appearance in The White Lotus.
- Wood criticised the sketch for being "unfunny and mean", pointing out that it targeted her natural teeth gap while the rest of the skit "punched up."
- She said that she appreciates good-natured humour but felt the joke was directed at her expense.
- Wood said that the criticism wasn't aimed at cast member Sarah Sherman, who portrayed her in the sketch, but rather at the concept itself.
- The incident sparked a discussion about Hollywood beauty standards. Wood's natural teeth have previously been praised as refreshing, as many in the industry have veneers.
