Why Wasn't Cheri Oteri Involved in 'SNL 40'? She Explains Here!

Saturday Night Live’s 40th anniversary celebration aired this past weekend, and Twitter was noticeably upset when former cast member Cheri Oteri was not involved.

The 52-year-old comedian, known for playing Spartan cheerleader Ariana, grouchy neighbor Rita DelVecchio, hyper child Althea McMahonaman, and more on SNL, went on Watch What Happened Live! to explain her absence.

“To be fair, I have to say that I wasn’t originally able to go,” Cheri said, “and then just a couple of days ago, I was able to pull it together. I really enjoyed the show, but the after-party when Prince sang with the B-52s with [Kate Pierson], I was like, ‘Woo!’”

She also revealed the person that got the most drunk at the after party. Watch below!
