Join SNL's hilarious new awards show, "The Trumps," hosted by James Austin Johnson as Trump, featuring surprise guest Mike Myers as Elon Musk!

AceShowbiz - Saturday Night Live kicked off a hilarious new awards show titled the Trumps during its latest episode. James Austin Johnson, portraying Donald Trump, served as the host for this unique event, which celebrated various categories including best picture and best kiss, all of which he humorously claimed to win. Adding to the surprise, Mike Myers made a cameo as Elon Musk, bringing an extra layer of comedy to the night.

At the beginning of the cold open, Johnson's Trump expressed his excitement about hosting the Trumps. “It truly is an honor to be here hosting the Trumps. After that lady, whose name I already forgot, gave me her Nobel Prize, I thought I need more awards,” he quipped. He continued, “And after what all my little freaks and psychos in ICE have been doing, I need more distractions.”

After winning the best picture award, Johnson's Trump delivered a comical acceptance speech: “Wow, this feels incredible. I love me, I really love me. I have so few people to thank, myself. And, of course, the big man upstairs, which is what I call my brain tumor. And if I could be serious for a moment, there’s so much horrible stuff going on in our country and the world right now, but I promise you, I’m just getting started.”

Meanwhile, Mike Myers took the stage to accept the Lifetime Achievement Award for Comedy, humorously stating, “I’m so emotionless to be here. And if anyone knows humor, it’s me. You know, no tariffs on humor, legalized comedy, come on, come on.” His portrayal of Elon Musk added a distinct flair to the evening.

The inaugural edition of the Trumps awards concluded with a comedic cameo from a faux Carrie Underwood, alongside a construction worker from the Village People, satirizing Trump's possible 2025 inauguration. This closing act further highlighted the show's satirical nature and ability to poke fun at real-life events.

In an exciting twist, Teyana Taylor hosted the night, marking her SNL debut shortly after being nominated for her first Academy Award and winning her first Golden Globe. “I am still processing. I am in shock,” she shared with The Hollywood Reporter while heading to rehearsals for the show. The actress, known for her role in "One Battler After Another," remarked on the insane week she had experienced and described learning about her Academy Award nomination as a dream come true. “I found out the way every little girl wants to find out, getting fitted for a ball cap...” she added.

The Trumps awards showcased the show's signature humor, blending celebrity culture with sharp satire, and left audiences eagerly anticipating what Saturday Night Live will come up with next.
