Charli XCX & Please Don’t Destroy Roast Each Other In Cut-For-Time ‘SNL’ Sketch: “Way More Brat Than You”

Although plenty of sketches get cut for time from Saturday Night Live, none were so cutting as Charli XCX‘s digital short with Please Don’t Destroy.

In ‘Mean Cute‘, the 9x Grammy nominee goes toe-to-toe with the comedy trio (Ben Marshall, John Higgins and Martin Herlihy), roasting each other in the lobby of 30 Rockefeller after bumping into them during a series of romantic-comedy style encounters.

After running into Marshall in the hallway and connecting over their favorite book, Charli says, “Hey, this might be crazy but would you ever wanna… watch where the f— you’re going? You just charged into me like a rhino, you dead-eyed ginger.”

“I’m sorry, I guess I’m just confused,” quipped Marshall. “It’s November. Weren’t you supposed to get put away with the rest of the Halloween decorations?”

The celeb host/musical guest then bumped into Higgins, whom she called a “dumb, hairy Italian,” telling him, “I can smell your garlic breath from down the hall.”

She then catches Herlihy trying to steal her purse off her shoulder, before showing her a picture he drew of her getting hit by a garbage truck. “I call this wishful thinking,” he said.

“Funny, I thought you’d be a fan,” said Charli. “Most lesbians are.”

After calling Please Don’t Destroy “the all-male reboot of Hocus Pocus,” the Brat artist really offended them by telling Herlihy he has “no butt.”

“And by the way, Charli, we’re way more ‘Brat’ than you. Because to us, ‘Brat’ stands for ‘being really awesome together,'” said Marshall before the he, Higgins and Herlihy took a tumble down the stairs.

The trio, who joined SNL in 2021, has become known for their self-humbling shorts, which have featured Taylor Swift, Dakota Johnson and more, owning them with brutal insults.
