Reba Has a Doppelganger

When CMT Music Awards host Kid Rock announced a surprise performance by the "Queen of Country Music" during Wednesday's live broadcast, the audience certainly wasn't expecting that "queen" to be in drag! But out came 'Saturday Night Live' comedian Kenan Thompson dressed as Reba McEntire, whom he has impersonated (albeit very loosely) on the show.

Fake Reba started to sing the redhead's recent hit, 'Consider Me Gone,' but was interrupted by Real Reba, dressed exactly alike in a floor-length green gown.

"What are you doing?" Reba asked Kenan.

"Who the hell are you?" he replied.

"Who are you?" Reba deadpanned. "You look like Kenan Thompson, who I heard has been impersonating me on 'Saturday Night Live.' Aren't you embarrassed of yourself?"

"Yeah, I'm embarrassed someone showed up in the same dress as me," Kenan answered.

"Not the same size!" Reba fought back. "You can't be Reba. You're too dark ... I'm ginger with highlights and you're a solid auburn!"



Kenan has done several sketches on 'SNL' dressed as "Reba." Watch one of the hilarious videos here (but parents be warned -- it's racy!). And in the wake of her cross-dressing doppelganger's debut on the hit NBC comedy, Reba's fans have started campaigning to score her a coveted spot hosting the show. The "Reba McEntire to Host SNL in 2010" Facebook page now has more than 2,000 fans.

I didn't find this funny. There are too many African American female country singers who are NOT given a chance in country music because of who they are. I love country music,but I would like to see MORE than PRIDE and RUCKER. Reba is GREAT!!

Racist pig. You're just tryin to copmensate for the fact that you can't get laid, so in turn you have to mock or criticize them, to replace the pleasure. Hey, when the Ku klux Klan show up on you're door, then you'll know you pissed off a bunch of people, you wanna be white racist wigger. Oh and Stop bringin this trash here too.


Country is cool and so are the fellow black man. Love ya kennan and Reba

I felt bad for the acts of the night, it seemed that their in ear monitors were not working. Timing was all off. I think CMT needs to find a new Host for next year too. I do like that the fans are the one's who vote, we are the one's that buy and listen to the music.

i thought some one was channelling Flip Wilson/Geraldine at first. You know, it takes a strong comix to put on a dress and do drag for laughs.
I am sure the sketch needed some work, but it probably was funny.

ag4jazz, you are an ignorant a$$hole. What the hell is the matter with you?

Maybe, just maybe if you had two cents of a brain you'd be capable of understanding all different kinds of music. But I doubt your adept to such possibilities. You are a God-damn Moron to say the least

Why so hateful ag4jazz? Just because you put "**",that doesn't make the N-word okay. And just because people listen to country that doesn't mean they are rednecks. Stop generalizing please, it makes you and the people around you seem uneducated.
